Thayer Evans: "So the story is there were OSU orgies? Sure thing, I'll have it to the presses by Wednesday."

The only reason he's bashing Ichiro is because he can't let anything eclipse his precious little project to pimp the shit out of Puig, who he claims he "found." Nothing else in the universe must stand against that light. It's not some bizarre love affair like Bayless and Tebow but it's still kind of creepy/silly.

Then the NFL should have a minor league system like hockey and baseball, and to a degree basketball. There's no reason for the NCAA to act as a free one for them.

This isn't really an apples to apples thing because of the numerous factors in hockey for this, including the major-juniors and the large number of international players.

I wouldn't claim best overall but I could eat a pile of Popeye's biscuits.

A fact skipped over by everyone referencing that scene to try to justify getting out of paying their tip.

People who quote Resevoir Dogs need a slap in the mouth. Unless you're lobbying in Washington for service worker rights, we all know you're a cheap ass and not some great thinker.

Meanwhile ESPN Radio was already trying to cut off the argument that he's young at the pass. "Well he's got this media spotlight on him so he can't just be another young man now!" Then maybe you shouldn't be shining the damn light on him so fucking much?

The Original Six plus the retirees from Original Six states.

This is perhaps the only alternative I'll take to Patrick, Adams, Norris, and Smythe. Maybe Orr.

Puig even has his own Bayless in Colin Cowherd, who brags on his show every day about how he was the first one to "discover" Puig and runs around playing epic music every time the subject comes up, all while openly roasting MLB for various reasons. Now he has even more fodder for Puig not becoming an automatic…

By grave you must mean the NBA Countdown desk.

The Patriot's Logic: "Because why the fuck not, eh?"

The money men set the line because they want even betting on both sides of the series, not because they truly believe or want the Heat to win.

AA? They'll do that in Philly.

Would this include streaming services offered by the major sports (like MLB.tv and NBA League Pass) that black out games being played in-market?

Schlereth has the excuse in that he's been bashed in the head about three hundred times. Cowherd hasn't.
