I have a LOT of friends who went to school and/or lived in Seattle between 2002 and 2008 and there are LOTS of Bret Boone stories out there. He was notorious for getting handsy at clubs.

My aunt takes food photographs for a living, it is a totally fascinating job. They’re more scientists than photographers. (technically everything you photograph has to be edible though not necessarily in the dish, which leads to some weird model foods)

I’m using one right now. I do a lot of text editing and our department recently made everyone switch to trackball to prevent carpal tunnel. It was an adjustment but I’d never switch back now. No more wrist pain! My only complaint is that you MUST have a wrist pad or you’ll end up putting a lot of pressure on the…

there can be no such thing as a truly worst tweet, it’s like baseball in that there are different positions which require separate valuations, but I would suggest browsing Joe Walsh (the deadbeat, not the guitarist) for some all time humdingers.

I play this game as well but your pinpoint accuracy is a step beyond. The other day I saw your Rob Deer tweet and laughed out loud, causing my wife to ask me what was funny, and the sheer impossibility of explaining to an ambivalent facebook browser and non-sports fan what a Matt Lewis is/was (RIP) and what a “Rob…

How about a 2006 Volvo V70R with only 31k miles for under $20,000?

Hey guys, I think you should pay @norareed

It’s the Rose Garden and won’t ever be anything else and suggesting otherwise will get you shot in the Rose City.

They’ve never played in a branded stadium have they? Griffith, then RFK, then Nationals? Kinda neat.

Also the Rose Garden here in Portland.

The build is utterly fascinating. I’m friends with a track engineer and through him met one of the track engineers working on the hyperloop track and the specs for JUST the track are ridiculous. We’re talking tolerances that simply don’t exist in any other track situation. When I asked him if it was ever going to get…

Since you mentioned “going all FreeDarko”, which obscure internet sports blog from the early 2000's had more impact on society as a whole, FreeDarko or FJM?

These are really gross but not nearly as bad as the SI.com layout.

It happened to me. It was a combo of a Costco poppyseed muffin that morning and having taken a cough syrup containing dextromethorphan the night before. The drug lab that called me with the results told me I was lying when I told them what happened and tried to tell me that false positives are impossible. Thankfully…

Jay Bills just said he’s convinced Collins is going to be a star, not sure about that but I liked jalen’s Laimbeer comparison.

I bought a 2006 Kia Rio from a friend whose family owns a number of dealerships in the PNW (Rhymes with Blob Blamphere). I assumed that buying a car from a dealership owned by a friend would get me a good deal, and I bought the cheapest car I could (it had a manual transmission, no auto door locks, etc). The car was…

I worked with juvenile sex offenders earlier in my career and it would be wildly irresponsible to say anything about this or particular case it is my experience that juveniles who offend, are caught, and complete rehabilitation have fairly low recidivism rates.

What makes that Tim Allen show “Conservative”? Is it that it’s not funny? If that’s the case why isn’t Big Bang Theory the official show of the Heritage Foundation? Maybe it’s just that Conservatives LOOOOVE forgiving white man criminals and the fact that Tim Allen got away with cocaine trafficking by narcing on his…

Shut up whiner.

I’m from Hillsboro and my brothers friend used to sell Colt and his crew drugs. This was coming for a long time. He was famously out of control in high school. It’s really sad. I grew up with Ben Petrick and Colt was every bit the phenom that Ben was. Like a big, physical adult playing against children even as a 16…
