Without question the most cordial comment thread about sports in internet history. It’s like the first time seeing the Grand Canyon.

Thank you, that is very kind of you to say.

Pitchers of brewers do often lead to forgetting, as well as a struggle to score.

If this is a regular thing I am all for it, but there better still be some Jaguars Junction up in this mix.

The only time it matters to me is if I’m making a giant vat to be consumed with a group of friends. At that point, I’m showing off and want that chili to be as decadent as possible. If I’m making it for me to eat for lunch throughout a week, I’m going lean.

Look I’m too busy writing a dozen comments instead of actually doing my paying job to care about any of this

Look, I don’t really care what airplane faeries do in the privacy of their own cockpit, but do they need to shove their lifestyle in my face?

Chili is great, but if I have to hear some sanctimonious prick try to tell me one more time that they “prefer a white chili with chicken and cilantro” I will fight them. Call that THING whatever you want to call it, but do not call it chili! Chili is red, red like the fires of hell, and should never contain poultry.…

Hate to break it to you, but...the Bernoulli Effect is a factor but it’s only responsible for a fraction of the lift generated. The rest comes from airplane faeries.

Planes fly due to the Bernoulli effect. And because I know this, I was able to nail the goddamn New Yorker and their legendary fact-checkers such that they had to print this correction!

I’m going to strongly disagree with Drew on the wedding gift. If you’re in the wedding and you have to travel, then your presence (and the grand you sunk into everything) is your gift to the couple. Anyone who expects a gift after asking you to spend that much money to be a member of their wedding is an asshole and…

i honestly think the sox will empty the vault to keep Mookie around. after this dismal ass season they will need to do something big to re-engage the fan base. and yes, i know that sounds insane given that they won the WS last year, but they are now a distant second fiddle to the patriots. losing Mookie just screams…

...but demonstrably mediocre in any other field.

Calling Ben Carson “exceptionally brilliant” and “demonstrably mediocre” is an insult to both the exceptionally brilliant and the demonstrably mediocre.

He was able to talk for maybe a minute on a time-sensitive call-in segment without saying anything. And was probably wanting to waste more time. If everyone took the sticks out of their asses over the Patriots they might actually be able to think.

I’d go so far as to say he’s flat out dumb. I can barely listen to him when he’s talking about football, forget any other topic. His radio appearances are boring and he’s demonstrated how tone-deaf he can be to sensitive current events/issues. It’s generous to describe him as aloof. Gisele is definitely the brains of…

Mediocre...someone was feeling generous today.

You think Ben Carson is mediocre?

Except Carson wasn't even that good at what he did. They made him a professor because the malpractice suits were getting too expensive. 

Today I learned: Sáček is the Czech equivalent of Sanchez.
