One of the most confusing moments of my life came when I was in England watching a soccer (sorry, football) match in a bar, and someone shouted out that one of the players was “a fucking c—-.”

Goodfellas has it:

This is exactly it. Here’s the climax:

Eh, maybe I like my shout-outs more subtle than this. I like the gender flip, but it seemed kind of obvious. (Of course it might matter that FTRH was set one suburb over from my own in San Diego, so it’s kind of my back yard. I also probably wore out one of those VHS tapes...)

I like Dickerson as well. (Of course, I also went to high school with him, so I’m biased.)

If there’s a better ad for Taser, I haven’t seen it.

I lived in St Louis in 99-00 when they won the President’s Trophy (aka early season golfing pass), and went to one of the home playoff games. It was incredible.

Oh, look, you’re the worst!

What especially insidious about this line of thinking is that with Hobby Lobby, the wedding cake nutjob, we’ve already started down the road of excusing businesses and individuals from following the law in the name of religious freedom.

I’m with you on this one. Air-recon, send smaller, more mobile boats out ahead...it’s not rocket science.

Honestly, I was more shocked to learn that Wainwright is still pitching. Fourteen years is a long time!

The point - I think - is about the inclusion of ordinary medical instruments to make their point that abortions are violent.

Hey Jon? You went to a lot of trouble to get those dragons. Any reason you left them out of your battle plan?

C’mon Buckaloo!

Between this and the Pens getting swept, that was an extremely satisfying night of hockey.

I’m still kind of bummed about Raymundo Mundo. But I think that Bubba Buckaloo has a shot at the Final Four.

I was at a minor league baseball game with my 10 year-old, and he got a second foul ball of the night. (It was rainy, and there were maybe twenty of us in the section.) Entirely on his own, he turned and gave it to the kindergartner in the row behind us. The kid nearly lost his mind, and I’ve never been so proud.

Yeah, we sometimes talk about unbreakable records in baseball (Gehrig!), but two GS in one inning has to be at the top of the list.

+1 Basketball confusion.
