Ice baths don’t do much for splinters. 

I hope someone in the Boston media asks Enes Kanter what he thinks about all of this.

Wow. Why did the Bears do that?

Without brooms, school officials won’t be able to sweep the investigation under the rug. 

I’m slightly disappointed in Reese’s video.

Buck found dead - hanging from a bedsheet in his cell - in 3 - 2 - 1 ...

Drew Magary: Hey, Sicialiano, I’ve got a real fucking problem with your attitude towards NFL football players.

Protein shake: protein powder, almond milk, whatever nut butter I’ve got in the house, banana, avocado if a I have a ripe half.

RIP.

Laurence Fishburne’s time as Cowboy Curtis on PeeWee’s Playhouse is one of the best and most bizarre things of all time. He was hilarious and when you realize Fishburne was in Apocalypse Now and went on to play both Ike Turner and Morpheus ... it’s even better and more bizarre. 

California is hoping that the lag time gives the NCAA a chance to reform on their own. CA doesn’t really want to be the only state with this law. They hope to force the NCAA or fed gov to create a national policy that allows players to profit off of their likeness. 

If he opts out, then isn’t it “problem solved” for the Sox? They save Martinez’ salary and don’t have to trade Betts. And if he opts in, you give him away if you have to. Better to give him away to an AL team than trade Betts, no?

Thanks. I skimmed the first time ... it’s sort of in there.

There is a great scene in the movie The Rookie (my all-time favorite, live action, G-rated movie —- if you’ve got young kids, I highly recommend it) where the small town kids come to watch their coach/Jim Morris/Dennis Quaid pitch for Tampa Bay against the Rangers. There is a very cool, wide-eyed, “how great is this”…

I don’t follow it closely enough to know — what’s in this post is all that I know — so just asking:

You gotta admire his “Yeah, I did it. What the fuck ya gonna do about it?” defense.

It can’t be fun for Lakers fans to realize that their title hopes rest on “Well, we know what LeBron and AD can do ... now, if only Dwight Howard can get his shit together for 82 games plus the playoffs.”

Excellent

I’m one of those people who never had to even think about whether or not I wanted kids. I wanted kids, period. If I had to give a reason, the answer would have been “I dunno ... I just want them.”
