Embarrassed to admit, I have only just now discovered the genius of Sturgill Simpson.

Hightower out

5 consecutive years of Diamond status on Delta, so I am far from objective, but Delta does seem to suck the least.  JetBlue is decent in the northeast corridor, but they seem to get thrown off by the simplest weather of equipment issues.

JetBlue also has a shockingly convenient non-stop to Long Beach if you’re looking to an easy trip to and from…[Read more]

I’m just saying I would enjoy sending the Jets to a lower division or three. My hot take is that every US sports league would be improved if we sent the worst performing franchise to the minors and brought up the best of the 2nd tier.

I know nothing of Euro soccer. How b…

Job interview tomorrow for a job I’m actually excited for. Been a while since I’ve had one, or at least one I’ve taken seriously. I know some of you are interviewers, what do you look for/find exclusionary that isn’t on the CV? One thing in my favor is I don’t need this job (I’m fine where I am, if a little bored) so I hopefu…

The Foles TD was top 15. Come on. A pass to the QB has been a play since forever. Hell Brady pulled that in the last regular season game at Foxboro Stadium.

Reasons to put the Foles TD catch as a top 100 play: It was a TD in a Super Bowl. It was a TD catch by a QB in a Super Bowl. It helped beat the Patriots – t…

Most of that was Bell too.

Growing Disconnects thank him for his support.

There has to be language in the contract to the effect that if AB so much as sneezes without covering nose, BB can legally murder him.

Schefter-Antonio Brown and the Patriots reached agreement on a 1 year deal worth up to $15mil that includes a $9mil signing bonus.

1st reaction-stunned silence

2nd reaction-loading up for one more ring for TB12.  Makes sense.

Rap-Raiders release Antonio Brown

Lefty nails it here.  Oakland’s handling of this fiasco is air tight.  With the reported contract language protecting against these shenanigans, the AB experiment was pretty much downside-free (other than the circus it would create)

Mayock isn’t an idiot.  He’s clearly leveraging this whole thing in an effort to show how business will be done in…[Read more]

Looks like Antonio Brown has asked the Raiders to release him.

In a friggin Instagram post. 🙄

Pts football porn on NFL Network in 13 minutes.  Finish up whatever you’re doing, people.

The comparatives to Jim Brown, Barry Sanders, and even Gronk are a bit much.  Luck was a good QB, but always struck me as similar to Aaron Rodgers-not as dominant as he was professed to be.

Of course, we’re incredibly spoiled in these parts.

It says here Jacoby Brissett gets the Colts to the playoffs as a Wildcard.

Screwball on Netflix is hilarious.  A nice hate-watch for ARod.

I remembered that Amazon Prime streams the Thursday night games so like you said who cares about NFLN.

Any other downsides to it? I see it’s 50 bucks a month, can run it on 3 devices/tvs and has an unlimited DVR. Definitely more sports focused than Hulu which is fine. No NHL Network which mostly means no Saturday night game which I…

Another surgery for Ortiz. Gut shot is never a good thing.

Wouldn’t surprise me if he’s waaay down on weight after all this. With as much gut work as they have done, I can’t imagine he’s on much of anything non liquid for food.

Depending on how much intestine was involved, wouldn’t be shocked if he had a f…[Read more]

Kawhi to the Clippers is the weirdest timeline. Sure beats Kawhi to the Lakers.

The Clippers gave up an BOATLOAD of picks.  Still, there is entertainment in the Lebron Lakers being the second best team playing in the Staples Center.
