There's a lot of things that I miss about living overseas, but being able to avoid Draymond Green's vocal stylings (who, if I'm following correctly, seems to getting set up as the next generation Charles Barkley when he retires--with not a lick of Chuck's charm nor humor, from what I've seen)...

Great thread Bleed, here's my go at it. . . Royce White. If he possessed even a 25 cent head, the whole Tubby Smith era could have taken a much different path and the abyss the program has been for the better part of the post-Haskins era might have been tempered. Ernest Nzigamasabo. I blame...

Rewatched The Great Escape recently, and man does that movie rock, just a great tale throughout it's nearly 3 hours. And while Steve McQueen might be the coolest guy ever, I'd be very satisfied with being James Coburn cool--his run with The Great Escape, The Magnificent Seven, and Charade was...

I loved the book so much, that I've avoided watching the movie, figuring it would disappoint, but you've got me putting it on my list (right behind The Right Stuff).

Movies before PG-13 was a wild time--the first naked woman I saw on screen was in "The Toy" in 1982 (talk about a movie with a gaping wide, confounding question of "how could that get made in '82?") which was rated PG. Alas, PG-13 arrived when I turned 12 years old, so the prime years of being...

I went with... Braves: Joe Niekro (4%) Brewers: Caleb Boushley (.008%-my favorite UW-Lacrosse alum on the board, narrowly edging out Jerry Augustine) 6+ WAR: Bob Allison (.7%) I'm going to have to take a look at that WAR in detail, shocked that Mays had a 6+ WAR season. WAR is such a...

And unlike Ice Cube, it doesn’t seem likely triple doubles are in his future.

Feels like this is a bit you’re running into the ground now. I don’t think anyone can presume to get into Aaron Rodgers head and if one thing has been demonstrated by him over the last several years is he doesn’t have the humility to quietly step into a backup/advisor role for a young QB.

I haven't been this outraged since Ron Mexico jerseys were selling like hotcakes!

Padres-Buck Buchanan (.3%) Cards-Tom Nieto (.4%) Marlins-Mike Redmond (2%) I slid Gaetti into Cards/300 homers for .8% Unfortunately, Reds/Marlins kept me from a perfect grid. April’s been a rough month for me.

This is the Nehemiah I roll with:

You know what I'm hoping plays out and I'm a bit surprised that no pundit (to by knowledge) has floated the idea, but given the relationship between Jerry Jones and Deion Sanders, given the hype and media attention it would garner, given that Dak Prescott is in his 30's and coming off of injury...

Or, with rosters pushed out to 15 players, Niko and crew are also looking for back-end of the roster types who will affect the NIL pool minimally, have a chance to develop, and can at least contribute as a body in practice.

Check it out again, my overall number went from double digits to single digits overnight. And you are correct, I was salivating when the categories came up today. It was such a bonanza that I was able to use former Twins for the Yankees category too. Nats/Expos: Chris Speier (.3%)...

I feel your pain on the slip of the finger or the last millisecond rearranging of names that thwarts my board. I'm not sure why he's stuck in my head as a Vikings/Jets alum, but Todd Scott works. He may not have been an all time great, but he gave us an all-time great memory in housing an...

My perfect April came to an end with the Negro Leagues/born overseas category. It was gnawing at me that I should be able to identify at least one player and after the fact, I see Minnie Minoso was the most popular choice. Alas, May's just around the corner.

Counterpoint: Did Kordell Stewart ever perform his own hip-hop song at Colorado’s spring football game?

To be fair to your daughter, being a young teacher is grueling and energy sapping, as they figure out classroom management, develop their toolbox of lesson plans while aligning to curriculum, being put under the microscope by students and parents, and depending upon their situation, not feeling...

Woke up early on a Saturday morning to watch the Twins on Apple TV+. Was pleasantly surprised to see the Twins up 1-0 in the fourth and after realizing Festa was pitching, settled in. The following occurred: Detroit gets a runner on 1st and a bleeder past the second baseman makes it to the...

As I’ve been seeing so many players in the portal who played a handful of games and then got injured, never to return for that season, I am wondering how many of these players are deciding to cash the season in, making sure they can retain their eligibility by not exceeding the games played...
