Which fanbase doesn’t have those people again?

There’s the fact that Anaheim isn’t even without 30 minutes of LA.

Bitching over a name is silly. The Cowboys are still referred to as the Dallas Cowboys despite not having actually played in Dallas, but Irving and Arlington

There’s the fact that they started the Thunder Stix.

So, they have passionate fans?

Rally Monkey.

Plenty of teams have gimmicks.

So you hate good players? You should start rooting for a team constructed of Willy Aybar’s.

and seriously

when you’re 19, it’s a sure bet that you really don’t know what an alcohol problem is. case in point, you apparently think that any amount of alcohol = alcoholism.

but please, tell us how you know about everything in the world at 19 more than people older, smarter, and more experienced than you

My brother is letting his drinking get in the way of paying his bills, work, relationship with my family and I. He gets really depressed when he drinks, yet he does it every day.

Sounds like alcoholism to me, no?

any 9 year old can tell you that drinking alcohol to excess is bad. don’t see much nuance from you beyond that. certainly wouldn’t give your opinion on alcoholism much thought

How cool would this be - from a Bill Simmons mailbag
Recently, Morgan Freeman came to my town to help celebrate the opening of one of his restaurants, Pig ’N Whistle BBQ. He came around and greeted every table and talked with each guest, and everyone was getting their picture taken with him. I had a stroke of genius, though, and had my phone out. When Mr. Freeman reached our table, I asked if he would be so kind as to record a message for me. He said yes. Now I have this on my cell: “This is actor Morgan Freeman, Barnz is away from his phone right now but leave a message and he will call you back, I hope … I hope.” Is there a better choice for voicemail and a specific person to leave it?

So

I had to give the kids a bath. Seth and Rowan both in the tub, then Seth dumped water on Rowan and she cried.

So Rowan, having already been washed, was taken out of the tub and given to Bethany to dry off.

I went into the office (which is about 3 feet from the bathroom door) to watch some of the game while periodically checking on Seth.

I hear him in there, playing and talking and stuff, and so I figure he’s fine. Then he comes into the office and says, “Bye bye, water.”

I go into the bathroom and see that the bathroom floor is covered with water that it appeared he dumped all over the floor.

I shut the door and hustled him off to be dried off and put his jammies on. I’m just hoping Bethany doesn’t go check that bathroom before the water disappears sometime tomorrow.

this better not be true, especially the last sentence

in a big article by Cafardo with the Boston Globe. Link to story

2. John Lackey, RHP, Angels – He is making himself some money with his postseason performance, but it doesn’t appear he’ll get it from the Angels. They feel they have a pretty good brood of starters and will perhaps earmark their money toward an upgrade on the adventurous Brian Fuentes, whom they’d keep in set-up. Lackey probably didn’t do himself any good by challenging Mike Scioscia when he was being lifted in Game 5. Look for Texas or the Mets to show an interest.

A baseball game is simply a nervous breakdown divided into nine innings.

Which is what makes those new 50 MPH Warships so hilarious....

Independence, a 418-foot warship built in Alabama, boasts a top speed in excess of 45 knots, or about 52 mph, and sustained 44 knots for four hours during builder trials that wrapped up this month off the Gulf Coast. The 378-foot Freedom, a ship built in Wisconsin by a competing defense contractor, has put up similar numbers.

Speaking of Larry Johnson

Went and looked at his Wikipedia page, and this made me chuckle:

On June 21, 2007 Johnson stated that he was willing to sit out the Chiefs’ training camp unless he and the Chiefs reach an agreement on a new contract. On July 22, rumors spread about the elite running back possibly being traded to the Green Bay Packers. The initial asking price was a first-, second-, and third-round draft pick.4 However, on August 21, Johnson and the Chiefs’ agreed to a five-year contract extension that locks Johnson with the Chiefs through the 2012 season.5

A 1 and a 2 and a 3…if they could have really gotten that in 2007, that would have been amazing. If they could have gotten a 2 and a 3, in retrospect, it would have been a steal.
