Ty Cobb faced Cy Young, who faced Cap Anson

Without trying much at all:

Leaving the inbounder undefended was the least of Houston’s problems. Rob Gray seems to be some sort of variation on the haka instead of defending anyone in particular, and the Cougars look like they’re playing a zone. Go back and look a few times, the center, and especially that white guy playing forward, it’s…

+5 minute major for butt-ending

My takeaway from this: “Keep on fucking that chicken, guys” will be my go to phrase for all purposes from now on.

Cry me a river, babycakes.

*Both* punters were on the field for the PAT attempt, which probably hasn’t happened on a play in the NFL since the 1960s.

However, he collected the jackpot of $750 on Bowling for Cornerbacks

The most spectacular thing about the PAT attempt was that both punters were on the field at the same time.

The nearest one to Chez Penis had a Borders until they overexpanded themselves into oblivion and went belly up; the one up the road had a fuckin’ Waterstones. If you’re lucky, you can find one with a Barnes & Noble inside the mall. Fuck Waldenbooks in the ass with a box set of Danielle Steele’s worst novels.

MOSI!

Eh, they’ve owned the Jets for years now...

Scott:

18 of the 31 other NFL teams have played in at least one Super Bowl since the last time the Bills made the playoffs. Fuck Ralph Wilson’s corpse with Thurman Thomas’ missing helmet.

Mice I can deal with as long as they stay out of the goddamned kitchen. But the time one solitary rat managed to infiltrate the fortress, Holy Mother of Fucking Christ. The asshole gorged himself on fertilizer-laced grass seed and managed to off himself in the process, but not before crawling underneath one of the…

The replies to this are Aristocrat-level golden.

Knew some blokes who threw a smashing Australian Rules Football party back in the glory days of ESPN (mid-80s), when it was nothing but Aussie football and UConn basketball 24/7. Lined a room with mattresses, and tabbed a couple of guys to stand at the doors with white flags while wearing lab jackets and white…

Dig a little deeper. Manny hit .383 with runners in scoring position in 1999, which is 100 points higher than he hit with the bases empty that season. He hit .448 with third base occupied. Now that, that is impressive.

But what if he drove in 165 runs while hitting .175 with RISP? Makes that number a hell of a lot…

Agreed. Note the catcher setting up outside, FWIW.

IIRC the Indians were headhunting one series against the Sox at Jacobs back in the mid 90s, throwing up and in the entire weekend, several incidences of yelling and milling around, Mike Hargrove, Julian Tavarez, the whole nine yards. On Sunday, Pedro decides to put…

Urine idiot.
