I watched Broxton when he played for Milwaukee. He was acceptable, sometimes even competent, and I was sad to see him go.

“AIBA was a fundamentally broken organization, incapable of adhering to ethics standards...”

With Jeter and Jordan as owners who have proven themselves to be either mediocre (at least Charlotte got the Hornets name back?) to bad (good Lord, Marlins...), the hiring of Manning as the GM of an already bad team could put us in a scenario where three legendary players sour entire generations of younger fans with…

For roughly 28 organizations, “sent down to AAA” is a better fate than “traded to the Orioles.”

That’s amazing. Wonder if he likes tennis.

Good. Maybe we can focus on the actually fun and good game of tennis instead of the tantrums of a man that has the same number of Grand Slam wins as Tim Burgdorf, who is a person that I just made up for illustrative purposes.

Let’s be honest, if we extend the pool from Nuggets/Blazers out to the entire NBA, that number might go to 10, with at least one retired player in the group.

Pretty bold for a pitcher in the league where pitchers bat to say such a thing.

My favorite part of this is that Faulk is a defenseman who just put up a gorgeous piece of stickwork to score a pretty goal.

Here’s a touching documentary on the subject:

To be fair, what he actually wrote (MULTIPLE TIMES, no less) is really fuckin’ bad. I’ll not give away the tweet (nor should anyone who has seen the film for the sake of those who haven’t) but it’s a major plot point and dramatic moment—ruining such a moment after a decade is at least a little bit of a dick move, even…

“This is not a Phil Kessel joke.”

My neighbors and I don’t know each other too well, so I’m looking forward to spending the next HOA meeting explaining why screaming “FUCK DON CHERRY” at midnight here in NC was totally apropos.

Question for debate—what gets more played out first: blurry-eyed redemption narratives from the sports media, or comedians digging out their “Tiger sure slept with a lot of women” jokes from roughly 10 years ago?

Pretty sure this is the same headline Deadspin ran back in 2015 when he signed with the Clippers.

I can endorse this level of hatred only if you also used it against that shitfuck “Austin” from a few months to a year ago. Motherfucker did all the gestures of a latter day Johnny Depp character with none of the charm and all of the smarm. I wanted to beat him to death with a tire iron from his twee fucking “around…

I’m inclined to agree with the tone of the article—I think it falls into the same trap as my favorite video game series of all time: Mass Effect.

Would be nice to get The Sopranos out of Simmons’ writing for a bit.

So will I be reimbursed for all the money I had riding on the Birmingham Iron winning the title?

If it’s any consolation: for a more grounded stat, he’s only on pace to hit 40 walk-off doubles this year.
