I see your Yankee fans and raise you Laker fans - they're already talking about LeBron coming to L.A. in 2014. It's like they think every superstar will end up on their team sooner or later. Probably because they do. Fuckers.

I see it listing TCU vs. Oklahoma State. Was it incorrect before?

I prefer to believe that "Jonah Keri" is John Kerry's pseudonym.

That's not necessarily true. RealClearPolitics' "no tossups" map currently has Obama ahead 277-261. If Romney could flip WI or PA from that map, he'd win.

Phoned in as it may have been, it gets bonus points in my book for insulting the movie whose soundtrack it was on: "Godzilla, pure motherfucking filler/get your eyes off the real killer".

At 129, Weeden was in high school almost before college football existed.

But his decline is very consistent with an aging player who's not currently being artificially enhanced. PEDs not only messed up stats, it messed with our…

By 1989, Aikman was already playing for the Cowboys (that was his rookie season). Oh, and he went to high school in Oklahoma, not Dallas - and played his college ball at OU and UCLA. So yeah, that story is fifteen kinds of bullshit.

This is how I picture Paul Ryan listening to something like Rage.

One of the best curmudgeons around. RIP, Beano.

I'd love to pass a new rule in baseball - one champagne celebration allowed per year, to the World Series winner only. If the A's win today, they will have their third champagne celebration in the last week and a half, and they won't even be in the World Series yet.

Serious question...when you say the play was "ruled on the field" as a lateral, what do you mean? Unless the ball hit the ground (fumble vs. incomplete pass) or Mendenhall pulled up and threw a halfback option pass (illegal forward pass unless Roethlisberger's toss was a lateral), there'd be no need to rule on it…
