Ali’s career in the ring is thought to be the best ever by people who don’t follow the sport. In reality it is most definitely not “unrivaled in the history of his sport.” And when people sit down and watch most of his fights in the 70's outside of the Rumble in the Jungle and the Thrilla in Manila they struggle to…

“Son, I know you are too young to understand the consequences of what you’ve just done. Some day you’ll be old enough to realize how difficult it is to spend 3 days playing with LEGOS and you’ll appreciate the enormity of your mistake.”

The Democratic party is dead if it doesn’t bring in more independents to rally the troops. They have not had a platform in years. I can’t imagine ever casting another vote for them if they simply continue to run on “We’re not Republicans.” The party has moved so far right over the last 20 years that they are no longer…

What an influencer this guy is. I wonder how long he had that loaded on his tweet deck.

That man is now on PETA’s hit list for forcing a dog to watch the Phillies.

Both of these are very good.

You mean his history of 2 title games in the last 8 years?

Good to see Barry’s hat size back down under the 9 3/8" it got up to when Victor Conte was his guy.

I can’t believe I read that whole post. -1 for me but I will star it since I fell for it.

Holm is a legitimate great in boxing. I don’t follow MMA like I used to but I follow boxing closely. I don’t know if you are familiar with Boxrec.com, but they use an algorithm to rank fighters based solely on their records and the records of their opponents. It does not consider at what point in each fighter’s career…

They are welcome to my money, though it won’t take them very far. I just don’t want to bring a kid into the world. Scoff if you may, but it is not an irresponsible position.

Yes, I wear them. Even though I’ve had a vasectomy.

It has happened at every MLB game I’ve been to the last 3 or 4 years.

You missed the boat there. She was the keeper. I hold the fact that she could (even if inadvertently) produce a 50 year obligation of mine against every woman I’m with.

I’m the same way except I don’t even feel The Departed is a great movie. Good movie, maybe. It might be because I saw IA first, but to me it is a far better film.

I am not allowed to carry a phone that’s bigger than my dick, so I am stuck carrying a flip phone. Hey, a man must have a code.

Wake me up when the playoffs start so I can watch the last 10 months of the season.
