Are we forgetting the Stormin’ Mormon, Danny Ainge? Toronto Blue Jays shortstop/Celtics point guard?

You see just how stupid your viewpoint is, right?

I think its even worse than that. Without media attention, and television broadcast, and other means of generating an audience, the game dies. His salary and the survival of the game is tied into generating excitement for his team. Get on board, sourpants!

I don’t mind any of this, but a buddy of mine had a new ACL put into his blown-out knee, and in describing the surgery, another buddy who was there got a little green in the gills. Once our patient said the phrase, “cadaver ligament,” the other buddy literally swayed on his feet and dropped his beer. I caught him…

Oh I got it. But I’d like to see these seamen try to form a Maginot Lineout

My wife (you’ve read her work in every woman’s magazine out there; she has a story cover-slugged in the April edition of Vogue) literally never considered changing her name. And neither did I. We both couldn’t imagine why she would. My mother was another story — until her death she would send holiday cards to “Mr. &…

Do we finally have evidence of a university doing things the right way?

Quest Moon! Garbutt! “Off you go”! So much wonderful in this. I love how professional rugby league players are in brawls; almost like hockey

I love gin too, but 2/3 of these tips involve an immersion circulator?

An important distinction: he finished 108th out of 165 starters. So despite his conditioning, he still beat nearly 60 people who dropped out.

Sound like a hostile work environment. It also sounds as if she’s a litigious drama queen.

Another amazing write-up Sarah. Nuggets like this, “Nope, a little peak at Salazar through those holes” make it golden

It’s so cute they’re wearing matching costumes!

It’s a bit of gamesmanship. It’s hard to tackle Isles, so Palau is just giving him the business to let him know he was there

This is so much better than anything in politics in so long that it makes me weep with pride to be from California

I think I speak for all fellow UCLA Bruins in saying, “Goddammit”

This is a real blow. He seemed to be unusually thoughtful for the BMX crowd, and had recently come into our orbit here in the triathlon community (and crushing it). Big loss, and really sad news

Nice piece. One bike nerd copy-edit suggestion: it’s unlikely anything was in the “crank,” but rather the motor and/or gearing likely was in the bottom bracket.

That’s actually how this was caught, post-race. The UCI has some scanner on an iPad, and it set off the alarms.
