Certain Dri, bro. 2) Travis Wood looks like the maniac he assuredly is. And why is he holding his beer ...

bad accents in a movie is slightly annoying but in no way, shape, or form, something that changes the overall quality or value of the film (or a distraction). it's one of those things when you notice you think, "well, that's a horrible and inaccurate accent", and then you accept it and jud...

Yes. Both (or any) fan bases have their share of idiots and racists. Only one refers to themselves as the BFIB. What's your point?

I love the "silly season" in College Football. Rumors out there that if Alabama wins tonight, Saban goes to Indianapolis to coach the Colts. I'm guess there's less than 1% chance this rumor is true, but if it turns out to be true, you have to think Alabama hires Dabo Swinney as their next...

Having lived through the 85 Cubs I really want the Cubs to get some more starting rotation depth. I would like to see them do some minor league trades for guys who could step in at the MLB level if need be. the cubs have warren, wood, and even cahill that could step in and start if need be. i would...

he deserves (and should and will be paid) as well as any top MLB executive. 8-10 MM AAV I'm sure. I mean, are they really going to scoff at a few extra million per year in the current financial climate of the game?

Junior with most ever, 99.3%. 437 out of 440. Those 3 wankers need to be put up against a wall. Not if those 3 all filled their ballot (all 10 votes used) with other reasonable choices. If one of them is reasonable, both are must-admits. They're the two best players on the list. edit: was amused to...

I've got to say, I've seen some fair rebuttals to a lot of the info against Steven Avery I posted and like mojo said, it just ends up being a never ending loop of info that leads you back to where you started (but with a migraine). There were people from Auto trader that testified that she wasn't c...

to be fair, it says Starlin Castro/Contributor at the end I feel like that's saying Starlin Castro, contributor to Player's Tribune. But maybe not. yeah, you could definitely be right. at first glance i took it to mean that he contributed to the article (i.e. contributed content but not the sole au...

With the seeming lack of market for hitters this offseason, does Fowler come back to the Cubs? We know they offered him a 2 year deal this offseason but he wanted more years. With guys like Gordon,Cespedes and Upton struggling to get 4 or 5 year deals, things can't be looking good for Fowler. I'd t...

The Oregon basketball court may be the worst playing surface on the eyes in all of sports. Even that hideous red football field is better (barely).

Same. Well at least favorite all-time non-cub. I collected any and all of his cards. I think at one point I had like 150 or something.

What an awesome letter. Thanks for posting that, TT.
