  4. The last time a Super Bowl winning coach won Coach of the Year was in 2003 (Bill B.). So I think McDermott's odds to win should be 1,000,000,000:1.
  5. Happy Birthday. Now show me the baby!
  6. If I win, I will buy a roof for the new stadium.
  7. Roethlisberger had his appendix out on 9/2/06 and only missed week one. Hines Ward had his out on 8/24/02 and played Week 1, 9/9/02 (90 yards receiving). Burrow will be just fine.
  8. Very cool! Another fun fact: Aaron Boone managed the Yankees into a loss tonight! Pitching to McNeil and bringing Gallo in to hit. BRILLIANT!!! Thanks, analytics boy!!! #LFGM

  15. What happened here As the New York sunset disappeared I found an empty garden among the flagstones there Who lived here He must have been a gardener that cared a lot Who weeded out the tears and grew a good crop And now it all looks strange It's funny how one insect can damage so much grain
  16. I have a pretty cool Donald Fagen story. At my place of employment (this was about 3 years ago), part of our day was receiving hundreds of fed ex packages/envelopes. An employee came to my office and said, "I'm pretty sure this wasn't supposed to come to us." He handed me a box and in it was a bottle of Heaven's Door whiskey (Bob Dylan's brand). So I looked at the packaging and sure enough, it was addressed to our office. I looked further inside and saw a receipt, with the purchaser's name/contact information. Libby Titus-Fagen. My boss was sitting in my office, and I said, "Hmmm ... Fagen. I wonder if she's somehow related to Donald Fagen. I googled her name and she is his wife. So I called the number on the receipt and got her voicemail. I left a detailed voicemail and a call back number. Five minutes later, she called me back. She was super cool and super nice. I never let on that I knew who she was/who she's married to. She told me that she bought the booze because she loved the artistry on the bottle/label. She went on to say that she and her husband were actually staying in one of Bob Dylan's houses in Woodstock, NY. She went on to give me their address in NYC. Then she says, "let me get our Fed Ex number so you don't have to pay to ship it," then I heard her yell, "Don? Do you have our Fed Ex number? This nice gentleman is sending is a package that was delivered to him by mistake." Next thing I know, Donald Fagen gets on the phone and says hello, then reads off the Fed Ex account number. I said thanks and have a great day and he handed the phone back to Libby. She insisted that I give her my name and address and that she wanted to send me a bottle of Dylan's whiskey for being honest and friendly. She even texted me a couple weeks later to let me know that she'd not forgotten about me and she was, "picking out the perfect bottle." And that was it. I'd love to finish the story saying that I received a bottle of booze and a nice note. But nothing ever came. It was still an awesome experience and a story I love to tell.
  17. Jesus, don't tell her you heard it from me!!!
  18. And she was holding a weed whacker.
  19. https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/movies/movie-news/paul-sorvino-dead-goodfellas-1235185779/ And then there were two ....
  20. There was actually a recent procedural change made to the muddying of balls. More of Manfred's genius. https://www.espn.com/mlb/story/_/id/34125576/memo-mlb-require-all-teams-muddy-ball-using-exact-same-technique Major League Baseball is now requiring teams to "muddy" baseballs before games using the exact same technique, according to a league memo sent to all 30 teams on Tuesday and obtained by ESPN. In past years, muddying involved clubhouse attendants preparing baseballs by rubbing Delaware River mud -- which comes in a can -- days before each game. Moving forward, they'll be required to continue to muddy balls on game day only and all with the same technique. The proper technique involves "painting" the full surface of the ball with mud using two fingertips. Then comes a very precise rubbing motion with the ball in between both hands to get mud into the pores of the leather. Muddying each ball is a 30- to 40-second process. The league memo is another attempt to reach as much uniformity as possible for the dozens of balls used throughout major league parks every night. When Manfred abruptly banned sticky stuff last year, players (pitchers AND hitters) complained and said it was going to result in more hit batsmen. This has definitely been the case, with multiple batters getting hit in the head. Instead of admitting that he's a ***** moron and letting pitchers use sticky stuff, he thinks this muddying process will help. Worst commissioner EVER.
  21. She's got me dizzy She sees me through to the end She's got me in her hands And there's no use in pretending Christine, sixteen Christine, sixteen
  22. and your chicks for free?
  23. This immediately reminded me of when Benny Agbayani caught a fly ball in left field and handed the ball to a fan on his way in. Unfortunately, that was only the 2nd out and two runs came in to score.
