Watergate

My dad tells a story about meeting Bill Veeck at the Playboy Club in Chicago. They talked all night and ashed cigars into tray on his leg.

or.... “Gotta get ‘dem dicks!”

My friends and I had a running bet at Wrigley that if one of us caught ball (foul/homerun/thrown) everyone had to pay the guy $100. If a ball came within 50 feet of our seats we would start knocking the crap out of each other so NO ONE could even remotely be in positon to “make a play”. Ah, youth.

I don’t like Deadspin writers or the commenters. I’m headed over to Barstool.... see ya!

That’s funny, I thought it was the $29 Manhattan’s that kept the poors at bay. Dumbass.

Handsome fella. Yikes!

Let me guess, your dad works at one of the exchange boards and you grew up in the south or southwest suburbs. You are a punk and you know it.

And if my aunt had balls, she’d be my uncle.

How do you know this person is on the right side of the story? Better questions: How could you possibly know? Were you on the team? Are you an assistant coach? Are you part of ISU’s administration? Are you the plaintiff? Are you all-knowing?

Your story brought tears to my eyes and I generally despise Gawker writers. My mother-in-law has recently been diagnosed with Lewy-Body Dementia at 77 and is in a memory-care unit. My wife and I are in our mid-forties and purchased long-term care insurance this past Friday. Everything I read on these diseases focuses…

Yes, but let’s make fun of him because he’s old and we are Deadspin. Old, white men are the worst.

My mother-in-law has it now and she can’t concentrate long enough to even read a novel let alone master something new. It is very sad.

I don’t know the big problem is with unwritten rules. Unwritten rules are what makes us civilized. I guess I shouldn’t be surprised as I disagree with 90% of the sentiments on all Gawker sites. Probably because I’m over 40, male, white, straight and saved enough money to retire comfortably and pay for my kids college…

Iowans have been going to South Padre Island for decades. 11 of us drove down from Dubuque in a Dodge Ram Van in 1989. 9 of us drove back. Don’t go to Matamoros after dark they say.

Bernie Lincicome has been a troll since before the Internet was a scratch in your dad’s pants and you guys all just fell for it. I’m just surprised he didn’t link lemonparty.org in the column.

It’s ok to body-shame provided it is a white man, right? Oh and successful too, almost forgot.

I will bet at a 17 handicap he cleans up at the country club. I’m a 7 and would have to give him 5 strokes a side. Hacks like him always drop in a long putt or chip it close when they are not supposed to. Fuck him.

This is a grown man?

I was IN the tub when my 2 year-old son floated one. It appeared right in front of me as the bubbles moved away from it’s wake. It may have even popped out of the water a bit! I about hit the ceiling jumping out of the tub and sprinted to the other bathroom to get in the shower. I never looked back. I hate to think…
