Please Don’t pander to me, seriously. It’s insulting to me and every reader here who knows better You tried to put one over on us twice and you’re still doing it, still brutalizing the English language to leave “from Russia” in there when it has no fucking business being in there.

Not a huge reader of defense-related articles, just happy to join in the jibing at whoever on staff fought to keep “from Russia” in the title of this article. I love my (RIP) Gawker blogs, read em proudly, but this is a dishonest title.

Yes, we cranked it to 11 with little regard for anything but profit and efficiency as we are wont to do, but we…

they look ridiculous but that’s better than a TBI.

I’d give it all up to get my dad back.

That was incredible enough, but what really made…

I played high school sports in the ‘80's- every single coach I ever had in baseball and football and half the parents in the stands thought that way.

The father of a high school teammate used to throw BP in the cage for us. Pitching screen was flipped for some reason one day and a buddy of mine lined one off his temple.

Give him a salt tablet

I felt sick when I saw it live.

He got his bell rung. Let him walk it off and he’ll be fine. The mood swings won’t start for another decade or two...
