I work for a particularly well designed magazine and I’ll say that this SI photo is perfect. Just beautiful.

God, I can’t wait for the Gronkowski biography.

While in Europe when I was 22 I purchased several bottles of Absinthe. Like a dummy, instead of individually wrapping each bottle in a towel and storing in my suitcase, I wrapped all three bottles together. I didn’t claim anything in customs (cause it’s illegal) and I had this brief conversation with the customs agent:

You crack me up.

Hey, fair enough. And that’s why it’s a fun debate. I don’t think we’ll see anything like that either. But, my point is, I can envision that happening in the future more than I can envision seeing someone do what Fed did on a tennis court.

Yep. When Federer was at his absolute best, it was hard to imagine anyone EVER being better. I don’t quite get that feeling about Bonds. Bonds is great but I could imagine, for example, Trout being better. Unlikely, but I can imagine it.

I’d go with Federer in his prime. But it’s a fun debate.

Yep, Daredevil was pretty damn decent. The problem is that it’s being talked up so much I think some folks are going in with the expectation that it’s an actually good show like Mad Men. It ain’t, nor is it trying to be.

I mean, I’ve always thought she was very generically attractive, but never really found her sexy.

You say Taylor Swift is capable of being an…

Whoa, she looks kinda sexy in that top picture. Weird. A sexy Taylor Swift. Now I feel strange.

Oh man, by the time this comes out people will have forgotten who these people are. BJ is almost forgotten already! I real missed opportunity timing-wise.

Axel Foley is on to you.

Swap out a couple titles here and there and this exact same post could be written about Beyonce, but I digress.

I’m not sure what your “people don’t know better” comment means. You could say this about any type of beer. It’s not like people who LOVE IPAs know less than people who LOVE lagers, generally speaking.

Buying the fight does not equal supporting Mayweather.

I mean, it was only ever going to be one of two things: Recruiting soldiers for the military or recruiting fans for the NFL. Either way it has always been gross.

As delighted as I would be, Tom Brady is not getting suspended 4 games. That’s just crazy talk.

Washington picks up Robert Griffin’s option.

Well, to be fair, he’s probably still the face of the sport. Way more people would recognize him than, say, Mike Trout.
