Or a longer football career if he hadn’t insisted on playing only in the NFL?

I know this won’t happen because of money, but if they want shorter games, make commercial breaks shorter. It drives me insane that they are quibbling over minor shit like intentional walks when the main problem is staring them in the face.

I don’t think he is their fault. They handled it fine. But it’s just another shitty thing that has happened around the team.

What’s crazy about sports is that despite Brady and Belichick and Kraft being idiot buddies with Trump, and despite Ballghazi and Spygate and every other fucking scandal the Patriots have been involved in (multiple homicides by Aaron Hernandez!) - I’m still a fan. I’m still excited for the Super Bowl. It sucks and it…

Also keep in mind that once Nike takes over the jersey contract, there will also be a swoosh on the upper right chest, too.

Huh. I know the guy. In all seriousness, the next time I see him I’ll ask him about this angle he took.

The chicken idea is great; trying something along the lines of sous vide chicken wings (buffalo wings?) would be great timing with the Super Bowl coming up, too.

Pretty sure commutation is irreversible. I’m guessing if it weren’t, it would be akin to double jeopardy. Also, this is helpful - Congress definitely cannot reverse it. http://famm.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/FAQ-Commutations-4.13.pdf

Man, all I hear when I play that Youtube link is “That’s HerbAlpertandtheTijuanaBrassI’mCarsonCistulli...and this is FanGraphs Audio.”

He was only below average offensively relative to the league (see wRC+) for two of those years: 2011 and 2016.

It’s like attorneys general, perhaps?

Please do write about rocks! Those posts would only get one hit each (me), but I’m game. Off the top of my head, intersection of sports and geology: stadiums on or near faults (Berkeley’s Memorial Stadium is a classic); the mud used to rub up all MLB baseballs; events disrupted by geologic phenomena, like the ‘89…

Redford: geologist-to-geologist question: what got you into geology in the first place?

I think this kind of transparency is good - go for it!

The Foodspin show was fun! Was it fun making it? Difficult? Both? Basically looking for DVD extras to the episode.
