Oh, yeah - Siriano. I was trying to think of who that was and how many seasons ago he won it all. Thanks for reminding me.

I can recall three or four middle-route receptions where Welker just got annihilated. Every player in this league straps up injured, and that’s a fact acknowledged by every player I’ve ever had occasion to talk about it with.

Griffey never worked out a day in his career, and that’s a fact - so I’m gonna say he’d be a hard one to punish for playing in that era.

And teammates piling on to say they made Newton do it is borderline Aaron Rodgers-level team shenanigans.

Our memories are incredibly short, Petch. Adrian Peterson spent an entire season on the Commissioner’s exempt list after abusing his son. Most mainstream sports media (particularly local radio) have outright forgotten all about that and chum right up to the guy - especially when he rushes over a century with 4.3 YPC…

These fucking idiot letter-writers probably haven’t had a loved one killed by a drunk driver.

Well, there’s no reason any of these STUDENT athletes should miss a class session between tomorrow at 8am and when this blows over.

This is precisely why the prep program in my town has pissed a lot of parents off as their kids reach high school - the perception that the development programs for younger kids isn’t important among parents who say, “Football doesn’t require the same skill development as basketball or baseball, so Tommy can decide to…

Good reference material, Draper.

Quick look at the USA Today Prep poll from this week - seems like in about 80% of the country, playoffs started two or even three weeks ago.

My grandmother - 99 years old - died this Summer. She lived the last six months of her life, quite literally wasting away following a massive heart attack right around Christmas. I was absolutely astounded by the job the funeral home did on her remains for the visitation.

A client and NFL starter I chatted with just last week put his guess at closer to 3/4 of active-roster players “tuned up” on PEDs. He says it’s insane how jacked players are, now.

Yeah, but screw Duke.

She’s a big-mouthed jerk who has blamed everything from the turf to the officiating to her marriage on her declining contributions to team play.

This is exactly the kind of passive-aggressive shit Minnesotans are renowned for.

A friend in the Wolves organization called me with this news today. Fans and followers of the NBA knew him as a coach - and a good one. I’m not much for the NBA - even in Minneapolis, where the team had sustained popularity and a loyal fanbase through some remarkably forgettable seasons, I often snark to colleagues…

Sweet jeeberskabibble, that’s brilliant kinja.

The worst part of this whole thing is that this particular program prattles on and on and fucking ON about the team, the team, the team - and nobody (fucking NOBODY) has the seeds to man up and say, “WE - the TEAM - shit the bed in what shoulda, coulda, woulda been a ‘we’re back, baby!’ game. At home.”

Is the narrow footbed thing still a thing with Nike?

Is the narrow footbed thing still a thing with Nike?

He couldn’t tell which one was yours, specifically. Personally, I see 26.2 decals on a cars all the time and think, “God damn...there are a lot of marathoners!”
