Nice!

And, having mentioned that, I’m reminiscing fondly of Mick McCarthy launching the ball into the upper Troposphere with Niall Quinn or Tony Cascarino’s heads as the eventual splashdown target. “Putting the ball into space” had a whole different meaning for those late 80s-early 90s ROI teams...

That’s what they get for, in Jack Charlton’s memorable phrase, “Fannying around at the back”

It just hit me. Trump is Len Dykstra with a weirder hairdo.

Me too. If desperate I would wipe my arse with the Sun (if the only other option was coarse sandpaper). The Mail.... Pass the 240 grit.

1) Getting hit by a car

We’re extremely used to that here, usually from UK media. We’ve either got horses wandering down our city streets or toddlers selling their grannies for smack. Or, in the case of Limerick, both.

Where on earth could they have contracted the Norovirus in the garden suburb of Stratford?

I think remanding witnesses to Rikers and attorneys hiding clients in toilets counts as “extraordinary”

I propose that Redford go straight into the Deadspin HOF for that Photoshop. Genius.

YAS! Just watched We Jam Econo for the zillionth time and damn if I don’t choke up when they do the acoustic History Lesson Part II near the end every damn time.

When I saw the headline I assumed the Sox had traded for John Lackey

In future, can we have a trigger warning when that shiny, blubbery nightmare fizzog is going to appear? I can’t be looking at Ted Cruz before I’ve had my breakfast whiskey.

I’d like to believe they banned him on ‘shit music’ grounds, but I’ve heard Mandarin pop.

I think he was making sure the cameras zoomed for the chug

My first thought was “boy, you could sell buckets of that to Cards fans” and then I rememberd a) Busch and b) Cards fans.

The Cubs need to get this fan traded to South Bend ASAP. She could be catching fouls in beer at Wrigley by the time the playoffs roll around.

As Stuff White People Like pointed out, the answer from these idiots is always “Performance”

Am I correct in thinking that blowing your nose in public is considered very rude? And does the general East Asian taboo on pointing the soles of your feet at people apply in Japan?

I just phoned President Higgins and he’s promised the backing of the entire Irish nation. Just make sure he doesn’t go, say, 3,000 miles West, either
