I think you nailed it. Hall of Very Good. Jeff Bagwell, Tim Raines and Bernie Williams were all better. Larkin's prime occurred when fast power-hitting shortstops like Jeter, Rodriguez, Tejada and Garciaparra were entering the league so he'll probably be the last SS to get into the Hall on the basis of "Well, he had great numbers for a middle infielder." He also did a lot of the things that shouldn't matter as much as they do...played his entire career with one team, some gold gloves, won an MVP (with a .886 OPS, how freakin pathetic was 1995?).

Drop the sarcasm. This is Richmond Rob we're talking about. You should show more respect for a guy who nobody knew existed until now.

I've never seen coach, QB and city meld together as positively as Payton, Brees and New Orleans. I don't doubt that your sources are sound, but it would truly shock me to see Brees retire as anything but a Saint.

I don't blame any fan who'd rather enjoy the game from the comfort of their home, rather than pay through the nose to see it in person. $833?

Coach and the kid are dirtbags. Chubs is grinning like an idiot after every foul. Flagrant Foul #5 is just ridiculous. Pretty good way to paralyze a person.

I just can't see that happening.

Fresssshhh Fisssshhh

First rule is to befriend Morgan Freeman.

I'm not an X's and O's guy, but don't the Patriots use the spread quite a bit?

Not The Onion's best effort, but "Easily this year's once-in-a-generation prospect" made me laugh.

And none of those menthols, either.

I still think Eric Wood is the better player, and that's who we wound up getting in compensation. Not the Bills fault that he's had bad injury luck.

Smartest repeating Simpsons guest star ever.

Wow, I've never even heard of an 18% beer. Strongest I've ever had was a 13.2% coffee stout. Anyway, that's a funny story. Any man who tells you he didn't nearly choke on his first shot of liquor is a liar. EDIT: You can tell your son he tried the 43rd strongest beer in the world http://www.ratebeer.com/Ratings/TopAlcohol.asp

Must have been a moment. I turned 21 last year. Never used a fake ID so ordering a drink for the first time was pretty cool. Magic Hat #9 at the local pizza restaurant.

Not all spoiled. Gotta love the little girl around 1:20 who's seemingly quite happy with her stick of deodorant.

Best to get in some last shots before the joke officially expires. Or at least that's what I'm telling myself...

It's an awesome prank to play. Best played on an older kids/adults, because you get to watch them squirm and play the "pretend you love it" game.

You're right. 1) Masturbation . . . 9) Garbage time touchdowns

My brother got me good this year. Got me a $50 Barnes and Noble gift card (my ideal gift), but hid it inside a Linkin Park CD case. He even shrink-wrapped it.

The world doesn't suck. To name just a few awesome things... 1. Sex 2. Ham 3. Guinness 4. Boobs 5. Runner's high 6. The literature of Hemingway 7. The sacrifice bunt 8. Girl scout cookies 9. Game winning field goals

My mom's name is Jill, so the new thread title makes me rather...uncomfortable.

Agreed. Fitz was disappointing down the stretch w/o most of his receivers, but the fact is that the offense went from 17 ppg in 2010 to 23 ppg in 2011. The defense went from 26 ppg allowed in 2010 to 27 ppg allowed in 2011.
