The truth is there really was. He had a vision of this team going forward.

Ted Danson starring in a sitcom with a guy who knows a lot wearing a mailman’s uniform. This feels like a winning formula.

Ha! Bro-gadaccio is very real.

Joking aside, Kauffman stadium is a really nice ballpark to watch a game. It’s the only ballpark left built in the 70’s and with the refurbishment that happened a few years ago, it doesnt feel like the 6th oldest park in the league.

Im a Bruins season ticket holder and was in South Bend for the game last week. As cool as it was, I’d love an outdoor game where all the fans aren’t dressed like Randy from “A Christmas Story” going to school.

Even deeper, Gould was originally signed by the Patriots in 2005 as an undrafted free agent as the Pats and Vinatieri were unable to do a long term contract. The Pats franchised Vinatieri, but Belichick tried to keep Gould as insurance, but eventually waived him at the end of camp. Then Vinatieri went to the Colts the…

1.) The ballet switcheroo is just amazing. Not all heroes wear capes. 

The question of the MASN Equilibrium is still unanswered, however. 

Did Booger ever have an interception in his career? 

Yeah, the four hour drive rule got me.

Ljubljana or Burst.

I remember driving through New York City on time, and I had 1010 WINS on the radio getting the news. They reported that Buddy, former First Dog during the Clinton Administration had been killed after it had escaped the Clinton house in Chappaqua. They ended the report with audio of a dog barking, and quoted the bark…

Well she did see the Islanders, so your point is very valid. 

Danny Ainge is the definition of white, so him going with Lob Williams, is simply being on brand. 

Granted past performance doesn’t indicate future success, but baseball has shown to be pretty adaptable as society has changed. While I definitely think the ancillary industries built on baseball, especially the sports media is still too dominated by old white boomers, but I think teams are getting smarter.

I dated a girl who figured skated up through high school. She did a fast spin once when we were skating, and I almost fell over my milk crates. (I’m not a good skater.)

This is a great comment. Thank you.

Yes, I am being a bit reductive, but as we move towards that sweet embrace of entropy, these debates generally get settled without anyone needing to lift a finger. Even if someone is in the Hall of Fame, time and history will winnow down narratives until only the highlights remain. Everyone will remember the truly…

“Grinding, conservative style” is a crutch for sports writers. I tend to think most NHL coaches, at least the good ones, have a basic style, but adapt based on their talent, to maximize their talent. Responsible defense does not prevent explosive offense, if you have the talent.

I was anti-Jack Morris as Hall of Famer for a long time. Still am, I coincidentally ended up at Jack Morris Day in Minnesota this past August. As I sat there, I realized “Eh, who fucking cares? Life’s too short to care about a Hall of Fame. Just go to Cooperstown, enjoy some history, and stop at the old mill and get…
