“Don’t all double plays start with a 6-9?” [Wink followed by smile]

That’s exactly what someone impersonating his twin brother on an NBA playoff team would say.

Report: Jay Cutler’s New Job May Involve Apathetically Watching Football Games

“I’m madder than Hillary Clinton getting nut-kicked at a fundraiser”

Agreed, because the offender is not being punished by the government; he’s being punished by a private organization. [SNIFFS]

“I reference a past case, ‘The People vs. Common Fucking Sense’ in this matter, Your Honor.”

Mike Matheny praised the fan for taking the bullet “the right way,” noting that glory boy fans in Chicago or Kansas City would’ve demanded a stoppage to the game and drawn much more attention to themselves.

Shit, now the Orioles will have to protect their honor by drilling someone on Holbrook’s crew.

Their team hashtag (#BearWithUs) doesn’t inspire confidence
