I hear that, and I thank you for bringing a heartwarming perspective to my needlessly hostile take on Steph's compulsive gnawing.

Personally, I love it. Used to be that fidgety as a kid (and am still that fidgety as an adult) and teachers always told me to cut it out. Seeing a guy who probably endured the same nagging elevate it to an art form warms my heart.

He's not the first curry to induce offensive runs.

That "O" on the jersey is nowhere near a 27-degree tilt. This is what the "O" looks like when you drop it into Photoshop and tilt it exactly 27 degrees.

Basically the sports world's version of losing Robin Williams today. Just the way so many people have been broken up or moved to tears all day long with these tributes is incredible.

Clear as day PI. But Jim Caldwell needs to go for it on 4th and 1 there. He got what he deserved on the shanked punt AND Dallas converting 4th and 6 on the next drive.

I am not one to blame the refs or conspiracy theories about the NFL "wanting" a certain team to win.

Why did I click on Eisen's remarks? Just terrible to hear the news, especially from the guy I associate with Stuart Scott the most. Unreal. And try as he did, Eisen almost made it through the whole thing all together.

Storm & Eisen's tributes were real & poignant. It showed people what friendship is. It has no color or gender. I'll be awaiting Phil Mushnick's snarky column on it tomorrow or Tuesday.

Eisen... damn. Maybe it's the dreary morning, but I'll say this: may all of us have friends who mean so much to speak so poignantly after we depart.

Amen, that ESPN tribute turned me in to a snotty nosed, teared up mess. Rich Eisen's tribute on NFL network fucked me up too.

I cannot be the only man to shed a tear today. We lost a good one today.

That doesn't make any sense. How does raising wages increase public assistance? And politicians have been pretty amenable to it- the minimum wage has increased in 20 states recently.

A wage that allows people to live without needing to rely on your tax dollars via government subsidy.

I was on that same bus in Stuttgart, Arkansas once. Jerry comes to the small town every year for the "Duck Gumbo" cookoff. When I saw him completely wasted at a local bar I asked to see the bus. He showed me, then went back to the dance floor and made out with a few different women while griding his old sweaty balls…

"Actually, I spoke with a few other owners who weren't offended by it, so it's obviously not a big deal and we shouldn't intervene at all."

Yep, those refs are always in the Boys' favor. That's why they win all those playoff games.

Funny how this never comes up when people get misty-eyed about the 60s.
