I asked my cousin in Cleveland what Barrio and Melt were.

Cleveland’s basic problem is that they want to be seen as a football town in the worst way, partially because that city fought so hard to get the Browns back. In return, the NFL screws them over on the expansion draft, setting the team back years, and they never really recovered from that. I firmly believe that was…

Say what you will about Kevin Love, but he played the best defense of his life in that video.

Admittedly? Pretty good.

Let’s see: the candidates right now are Philadelphia (oh, God), Seattle (ditto), Atlanta (shades of 1998), possibly Dallas and maybe the Packers.

It’s not that I fear the Vikings, who are a very good team even without AP and Bridgewater. My beloved Packers found that out a couple of weeks ago. The euphoria of moving into a beautiful new palace may also have something to do with the Vikings’ hot start.

Neither did I. And I watched that film almost religiously as a kid when it was on HBO in the early ‘80s.

U2 was very good, so they are near the top of my list. Most Super Bowl halftime shows are disappointing, almost as a rule. Katy Perry’s was just kind of weird. I was wondering if someone put peyote in my chicken wings.

We must be around the same age. I remember those too. My God, they were horrible. And wasn’t Up With People some sort of cult?

My guess was alcohol (anyone who drinks can get a DUI), but you may be right. And I think Gordon simply has the type of personality that leads to addiction. Some are more predisposed than others.

OH GOD NO

Marv Levy would like a word.

Being the only Swansea City fan between Minneapolis and Chicago, I really don’t have that problem.

mostly because I was hung over and wanted to go back to bed.

Three-time World Series champion, co-MVP with Randy Johnson in ‘01. Is eligible, isn’t in yet.

I really have to wonder if these two clowns didn’t set this up and are sitting in a private room at a Morton’s in Manhattan, enjoying cocktails and huge steaks while having a very un-PC raucous conversation with laughter at the expense of the American public.

We will see how Kaepernick feels four years from now, because he probably won’t be with the same girl then.

Except there’s one major difference: Schilling is a borderline Hall of Famer in his sport.

OK, who had 11:51 Central Daylight Time for the first Major League reference? You win.

Like J.J. Watt, I am from Wisconsin. And like J.J. Watt, I am disappointed that a place called “colby cheese college” does not actually exist.
