Dear John (Vol. 3)

So if there were ever time to heed my advice, now is that time. I recently moved to a new city across the country from where I grew up on an absolute whim. I brushed it off as a drunk act and just went on about my life for the next week. The next weekend came around and we went out to drink again as if nothing happened. I may have touched lips with her roommate, this time on my own accord....

The Hospital Celtics Continue To Do What They Do Best And Absolutely Kick The Shit Out Whatever Stands In Their Path

You give them one of the Jays and then the bench and that’s more than enough. Want to know something crazy about that? OK, what the fuck are we watching? I mean that might be the most outrageous Grande nugget of all the Grande nuggets. More 30 point leads than 10 point deficits through 67 games of a season?? How is that even possible? Allow me to show you. At the very least, Marcus Smart’s Celtics record of 11 3PM in a game was cooked....

The Reigning Cy Young Winner Blake Snell Remains a Free Agent And Has Resorted To Auditioning In Front Of Scouts To Entice Teams To Sign Him

It seems for the first time maybe ever that Scott Boras overplayed his hand and completely screwed his clients. Just doesn’t happen. Father time is undefeated and comes for everyone, apparently even sports agents. Okay that statement is a tad misleading. Still, crazy he has to do that on March 18th! Now I’d be remiss to not mention why teams are scared to sign Snell. -First of all he’s on the wrong side of 30, which will always bring hesitation from clubs....

18 Parting Thoughts From The Players Championship: It's Scottie's World, That Was An Awesome Show And A PGA Tour-Saudi Deal Inches Closer

There is so, so much to discuss. Here are 18 Parting Thoughts from the 2024 Players Championship. Scottie Scheffler, man. This is the best run of play weve seen since…take your pick. It might be better than all those stretches because it’s lasted longer. For the first part of this year watching Scheffler was a bit of a frustrating experience.

Semi-Coherent Thoughts And Ramblings From The 2024 NCAA Tournament Bracket Reveal, The Committee Makes No Goddamn Sense

Let’s get right into the first thing that needs to be talked about. I don’t think the committee understands what the hell numbers mean. Perhaps they don’t understand what seed means? East Region -Congrats to UConn on the No. He’s a brutal bracket for you! Iowa State was talked about as a 1 seed after beating Houston yesterday. it’s possible for you to’t have the top No. 2 seed in this bracket, so that means Iowa State wasn’t even talked about....

The Most Awesome Insurance Scam You've Ever Heard Of

This Taiwanese legend is top-to-bottom one of the greatest idiots I’ve ever had the pleasure of reading about. At the same time, he’s a personal hero of mine. I refuse to let this heroic & brave act of stupidity go un-memorialized. I’ve written or talked about this subject no less than 1000 times in my life. Not by earning one myself via any deserved means. I fantasize about New York City scaffolding collapsing down upon my head....
