For the longest time I thought Jimmy Wynn was white, too.

Joe Thurston was that way for me. I read about him in spring training 2009 and was like "Hrm...a top prospect in the BOSTON organization, plays a LOT OF POSITIONS with SPEED and HUSTLE but never really cracked the bigs?

SPRINTS TO FIRST BASE ON A WALK?

And jogs back to the dugout after making another out on the basepaths.

Yeah Madonna is awesome.

Music critics are definitely loving awful, it's all nothing but lifestyle criticism and posturing.

Today is always the most bittersweet day of the year. My daughter Jenny was born same day John Lennon was shot. Never know how to feel.

This is especially funny to me because not only does my dad, who is a huge huge huge Beatles fan, have a December 8th birthday, but December 8th 1993 was the day the doctors at the hospital told my parents that I would be profoundly deaf from meningitis. Somehow he's never had a problem celebrating his birthday.

Well they're paying Stephen A Smith $3million a year so think about this: the hosts of First Take are earning a combined $7million a year

my favourite Grantland piece was the minute by minute breakdown of how many times Kate Winslet tried to kill Leonardo Di Caprio in Titanic, and all I can do is giggle all the way through

Holy hell, I missed that one and just read it and laughed my rear end off. I love Titanic but that was great.

That became patently obvious two years ago, when four more people voted for Clemens for the Hall of Fame than did Bonds.

Four whole people? There are over 400 voters for the MLB Hall of Fame. That's nothing but noise.

Even if you could chalk that up to anything, I'd be inclined to bet it was something much simpler and less insidious: dingers. People care deeply about the home run record.

I'm not at all a food snob and am fine with most any chain restaurant, it's whatever, but Applebee's is really that bad yeah. I'm not sure how they gently caress up so bad. I feel the same way about Papa John's re: pizza chains.

Yeah I learned that when I took a random trip to Dallas in about 2005, went to a BBQ place because we'd driven 14 hours and were hungry, I ordered a "sampler platter", and didn't realize until the food arrived that I'd actually ordered three pounds of meat plus the usual sides.

The toilet in the hotel room never stood a loving chance.

I worked BBQ in KC, one of the busiest joints in town. The go-to fatboy plate is the judge's: three meats (we offer six) and two sides. Thing is though you can just add extra portions of whatever. Will never forget the couple I had, weightlifter and his girlfriend, where the guy cackled upon hearing this and the girl just buried her face in her hands. Dude polished off a half rack of ribs, a sausage link, and 4 oz each of brisket, chicken, burnt ends and pulled pork plus fries and beans.

I suspect the current court would also overturn the tobacco ban as well

I remember a tweet a few years ago saying we really got that smoking ban in under the wire or you'd have chuds walking around blasting Marlboro Reds in nonbinary kids' faces to be anti-woke
