Still long odds against Darko getting the bout he wants against the Italian ref from the 2007 Eurobasket Serbia-Greece game:

Psalms, John... friggin' homophones! Note to self: Just write "Bible x:xx." — Kolten Wong

Kid is one second away from declaring he has HAD IT with that dude's bullshit.

For it to be a 2, it would have to be both upside down and inverted. Y'know, like Darren Rovell's head relative to his ass.

This post was the best Itchy & Scratchy cartoon I've seen since the end of the FXX marathon.

Hey Niners — perfect excuse to bring back Lon Simmons for a few games!

A kita says that ball was outside.

Odd... everything I know about this situation screams to me that Roger Goodell is completely full of shit. But watching this video, he looks much more like he is completely full of cherry flavored Hi-C. What else is that red? ...Robitussin? ...Borscht?

49ers: Tim Kawakami, Mercury News. Because the truth hurts, and need not be polite.

"Yes, I've been paid very well for 21 years for watching my teammates' games from a first-class seat at field level... but think of all the balls I didn't get to pick out of my own net."

*Zenit front office phone rings*

Unfortunate for Michael Sam himself, and the many fans who were/are rooting for him to play well and make an NFL roster. Hard to understand, or might you just be a little quick on the "distraction" trigger finger?

49ers front office is appealing for restitution from the Ravens, since if it hadn't been for Ray Rice, Smith would only have got 5 or 6 games.

Minard: Oh shit, check out how the "69" line is going right into my ear! Officer, can I get a copy of this mugshot? I need to send it to someo—... oh wait, that's right.

The ol' nothing-but-a-solitary-period, while I languish in grayed-out Pending Comment obscurity. Ouch. Not in the face...

Homer: Mmm... flare-roasted pooork…

Happiest guy in the ballpark that Justin Morneau broke up the perfect game fair and square may well have been first base umpire Jim Joyce. Many will recall that it was Joyce, umpiring at the same position, who cost Armando Galarraga a perfect game back in 2010. Just a funny coincidence — I don't mean to pile on Joyce,…

Look for Ms. Anderson and/or ESPN to attempt to walk back the choice to report on Michael Sam's showering. You know... blather, rinse, retreat.

+1 for the refreshing choice of utopian future over dystopian future.

It's good to be Bright, but he's still at least one d(y)ke short of Hart Lee Dykes.
