Yea, but then they experienced Game 5 against the Cardinals. I’d say that more than makes up for it.

It means “athletic” and “mobile.”

Right—Gun to my head, I vote Hillary, but I detest both candidates enough to recognize Hillary doesn’t have the margin of error to indulge a nobody in the VP slot for party building.

The notion that Hillary was or is in a comfortable enough position to spend political capital on the VP slot for party building, rather than leveraging the slot to accrue additional political capital for the purposes of getting elected, is as perfect an example of coastal democratic myopia as I’ve yet seen.

The Cubs may be a historically sad sack franchise, but fuck the city of Chicago. 10 different major sports championships in the last 30 years is more than enough.

We’ll get to that. But for now just get the damned Giants out of the playoffs.

Co-signed.

That, and the lack of interceptions.

I hope they beat the Giants just so we can all be well and past that, but LOL at the thought of that rotation beating anyone in a full series.

Still not over Yusmeiro Petit and the 2014 playoffs. Fuck the Giants.

Part of me is expecting them to pull it off because they finally have a good excuse not to. Damn Bill Simmons for conditioning me to believe in double-reverse anti-jinx nonsense.

Maybe, but after watching him get roasted by the first two batters keeping him in was malpractice.

Well at least hockey is starting soon, go Caps.

That’s what really struck me—not only did Buck decide to go with a dumpster full of kerosene, but after it lit on fire he didn’t make any changes. As soon as he gave up that second hit the game was basically over, donger or no donger.

The NBA’s relationship with social issues is intensely fascinating to me. The racial composition of the League results in a bunch of rich white men dictating to slightly less rich black men how to behave, which is usually verboten except on gender-related issues such as sexual violence and LGBT identities, where it…

Don’t let Molson bad apples spoil the whole bunch.

If you picked a Skipjacks or Bandits squad out of a hat they would win a best-of-7, so, yup.

Eh.

I’m a recovering O’s fan who fell of the wagon in the early-00's and then started following the Nationals since they’re closer anyway, so I might be a bit biased.

On the other hand, Peter Angelos does not deserve nice things.
