F-Yall's-I
I spent a decent enough chunk of my formative years in the South, so if I am going to be honest, I tend to say, “for y’alls information” from time to time. Usually when my patience has been tested, after a couple glasses of Scotch, or a Sunday morning. I also say “kwarter” or “dawg” because of the NY childhood & current location of living kwarters....
Sadly today, a small cynical part of me will die a...
June apparently is the month for weddings. The month where you attend these events you agreed to months ago, laughing to yourself at the fancy-dancy invite you got from one of the guys you used to sit around drinking Keystone Lights with, while violently arguing whether or not you could dunk a football on goalposts or if it was simply a feat that elite athletes made look easy? All this while high...

With their glut of catchers and a pending activation of Brian Schneider, the Mets have sent C Ramon Castro packing, sending him to the White Sox in exchange for RHP Lance Broadway….
Nice trade for the Mets, even when factoring in the loss of Castro, who I liked better than their other catcher options. I’ve seen Broadway(perfect name for a NYC pitcher btw) pitch twice in Minors and...
Phenway Apprehensions
thephenthouse:
So the show is on Sunday and I’m pretty excited to see the boys. I think it’s gonna be a kick ass show, but I’m feeling a little uneasy about the whole thing to be honest.
Specifically, I’m feeling uneasy about walking into Fenway Park. I’ve been a lifelong Yankees fan and unless you live under a rock, you know there has always been animosity between the two sides. Even...
“La Raza is basically….uncontroversial unless you think it’s a public safety...”
– Josh Marshall on the “outrage” from Conservatives that Sonia Sotomayor belongs to the Latino civil rights organization La Raza, which has been likened to a “Latino KKK”. Totally. (via kiamatthews)
La Raza was easily my all-time favorite Cypress Hill Album

I mean have you seen the shit I’ve posted the past two days? Ffffffuuuuu

Sometimes you can wrap up the dashboard news of the day in just one post & almost have it make sense. Almost.

Seriously? If this is true, @ev & @biz, um, this is the worst fucking thing you could to to Twitter. It’s right up there with creating “Junk Mail Twitters” that reach certain demographics. (Hasn’t happened yet, but I’m sure some people wish it would.)
Does Twitter need to make money? Farming out the “Celebrity Twitterers” is a terrible idea and not even your damn RIGHT.
Charge us...

In anticipation of releasing Hot Sauce Committee, the Beasties have sent out a dispatch detailing an appearance tonight on Fallon’s late night show. You’re welcome:
we, the band, known professionally as the Beastie Boys, will be making a professional appearance on the television show that is called Jimmy Fallon (is that what it’s called?). so if you (the viewer) turn on your TV...

Seriously. He’s lucky Yooooouuuuuk comes up in the lineup after him.
I will be writing a post, “The Ghost of David Ortiz”, in the next 48 hours to dicuss this more in depth. Honestly, for a Sox fan, watching him hit now like seeing an ex-girlfriend(or boyfriend for you Pink Hats) out at a bar with someone else. Uncomfortable & sad.

Meark Teixeira completely shattered his bat in the processs of hitting a home run.
They aren’t playing baseball in the Bronx, more like HGH fueled Beer-League softball

From a friend of mine. Please read and watch:
“As some of you probably already know, I joined an animal rescue group three months ago, and have just been assigned overseas to help with antelope protection… Well…this past weekend was my first real action, and fortunately my efforts were captured on the attached video. I hope you enjoy it. This type of work is most rewarding, but it...
“Treating myself to a naked Korean body scrub to get the top 6 layers of skin off...”
– a certain fameball with a pink dog. As someone who has been & still is dealing with Melanoma it baffles the mind, at least mine that is, that the wanna be Hunter S Thompson is burning layers of skin off. Moronic.
Try using this cosmetic $$ & put it towards purchasing, Living A Real Life for...
“I came in here to get some treatment. The chiropractor tried to make some...”
– Frankie Rodriguez
Sounds like the Mets need a new chiropractor.

…and supposedly Putz had a sore neck tonight as well?
The Mets obviously did not stay at a Holiday Inn last night
Let's fix this: The art of mixing pitches →
In trying to spare everyone an overdose of my sports related rants, the creation of clutchplays.tumblr.com has begun
There is always a silver lining
The only one I can find in tonight’s loss for the Red Sox to the Mets will be the hope that somehow the insufferable Evan Roberts of WFAN celebrates a little too much on his way out of Fenway and he is pulled aside for a little talking to by a couple of the boys from Daw-chestah.
“If you’re going to lose, don’t lose with that.”
– Terry Francona, earlier today discussing Jonathan Papelbon’s decision to work on & use a slider. The ability to mix up his pitches had been key in keeping Papelbon perfect.
Until tonight.
