Billy Haisley pulled a Billy Haisley special today. In the midst of this word salad...quote:By any statistical measure or presumable eye test (“presumable” because I haven’t watched a minute of MLS this season so I’ve not had the chance to subject his performances to my own visual examination), Vela has dominated MLS so far this season on a level on par to how the world’s best players dominate their leagues. So if you're scoring at home, he wrote a thousand-word article attempting to do in-depth analysis of a player he has not watched one second of this year.

So, Drew didn't spend a month in the hospital because he was drunk.quote:Nearly five months ago, I suffered a severe brain hemorrhage while I was just standing around at a work party. When I collapsed, I fractured my skull. That fracture tore through the inner ear on the right side of my head, rendering it inoperable for good. I’m looking into ways to make up for that loss, but they all appear to feature old-man hearing aids, and such remedies likely won’t bring my hearing all the way back to where it was. On the plus side, my children are now half as loud to me. Also, Stephen Colbert is deaf in his right ear as well. That makes us practically related.

Drew has a pass to make bad tweets forever now, because he can just claim it's the brain injury. Which is good news if you've ever seen Drew's tweets

We'd discussed the lack of female-oriented stuff on the Athletic, so I wanted to highlight this cool piece by one of their Blue Jackets reporters on the Ohio State women's hockey team. https://theathletic.com/951761/2019/04/29/scars-of-battle-the-stories-behind-these-marks-for-ohio-state-women/

It absolutely sucks that this is definitely going to end with the staff getting laid off, but ceasing to print millions of magazines that practically went straight from the press to a garbage can is probably a good thing overall.
