How about “Dipsy-doodle, rock-and-roll, it’s Draymond Green with another FANNNNNNTASTIC triple-double.” Or, “ddraridgwaftd” for short.

Rowlf, the original Muppet and still the best

Hey Will, I was thinking of doing the same Maine Brew Bus tour in the spring. Do you think it would be worth the $75 cost for those of us who aren't beer reviewers?

Smarmy and dumb is MLB's modus operandi. MLB would never do this. Therefore, this is not smarmy and dumb.

Never. Deadspin is a media outlet. Media outlets often feature editorial content, such as the piece you just read. Editorials are rarely considered legally binding rulings.

Every variety of Sierra Nevada I've tried is awful, but the regular Pale Ale is the least awful of the bunch. Still, though, I feel like I could achieve the same flavor profile by dropping a 9 volt battery into a glass of water.

I was once almost done making some excellent clam chowder when I decided it needed a little thickening after I "watered" it down too much with cream. Unfortunately, the flour and salt were next to each other in nearly identical bags, and before I realized my mistake, I had turned my chowder into a briny mess. I tried

And when you go to touristy areas of South America many hotels have signs in English saying, "Don't throw toilet paper in the toilets!"

I have pooped in deep open holes in the ground while squatting over them on a pair of 2x4s. I have used toilets that require putting the paper in a regularly-emptied bin. The latter option is far more hygienic and pleasant.

I had no idea about that part of the history. Thank you for sharing it. I was born after the heyday of Nutty, when it was played during every broadcast, but I remember them playing it occasionally before some of the games on channel 38 and wondering why they didn't use it all the time anymore. Once NESN started taking

How long has it been since the NHL was on ESPN? Yet, as soon as it started to play the memories came flooding back. Great theme.

This is accurate. Like TWIB, itself, it's impossible to be sad while it's on.

Now playing

It wasn't national, and I know that I'm biased, but I can't hear the old Bruins' theme from their WSBK 38 days without wanting to skate through a goddamned brick wall (and that's saying something for a song based on a ballet).

Oh, I know :( Pointing out primary sources that contradict his or her statements probably won't work, but maybe some other reader who is unsure about the topic will read them and understand why it's an important issue, and for how long it's been publicly controversial (basically as long as Native peoples have actually

It's more like the bully saying, "Give me so much money that you're forced to mortgage the next 30 years of your life, so that I can build a treehouse from which you will not profit. Otherwise, my family's going to have to move out of the neighborhood." I have to say that the right move is to call the bluff.

1972: "Similarly, a 1972 article in The Washington Star newspaper on the use of Indian-themed sports names and symbols observed that “redskin” is a derogatory way to refer to Native Americans. The article contrasted the slur, “redskin,” with the neutral term, “Indian”: “Of course, the names and symbols differ. They

I've never known of anybody who reads TMQ non-ironically (like Drew, so that you can laugh and rip it apart). To have some insight into possibly-declining readership I would first have to know what his sincere readership is/was like in the first place.

That's like saying, "At least Kentucky beat Duke." Yes, the more horrible team lost, but we all still lose in the end.

I see we are at an impasse. Normally I would say "agree to disagree" and move on, but as this is Foodspin:
