Doing bunting drills between grueling shifts at the box factory

Just watched a hitter for Czechia bunt a 3-0 pitch with nobody out in the second inning in a scoreless game. That’s the most disgusting baseball I have ever seen in my life.

This is exactly what the Bears did to Matt Eberflus

you think the big guy is a Arby Sauce or a Horsey Sauce guy?

This is not to be confused with general Arby's slander. I will get down on a beef and cheddar with curly fries, myself.

But who is out there thinking 'you know what this wedding/banquet/large gathering needs to really set it off right? Horsey sauce'?

The marquee at the Arby's I drive by every day on my way to work said "WE NOW CATER". I have two questions:

For who?

For what?

I think McDuffie is really good, and now the Chiefs defensive back depth is basically a null set, but if he's better on the slot than on the outside - and he is - do you really want to pay a slot corner $30M/year? I'd understand not wanting to, but that's gonna be McDuffie's asking price

Spoke this into existence on @580sportstalk.bsky.social yesterday - Les Snead's remarks about trying to acquire an All-Pro in the secondary were so obviously about McDuffie

I’ve only watched Arizona State play twice this season - against Kansas State, and against Kansas - and based solely on those games I am left to conclude that Massamba Diop is the best college big man since Lew Alcindor

Some of this is “ball will not go in basket” and some of this is “Moe Odum is shooting like Steph Curry” and that’s whatever but the turnovers and another Flory Bidunga disappearing act are real, real concerns

It is frankly unfathomable how bad Kansas looks tonight. It does not compute. Also the officiating sucks but I don’t care if the foul disparity is 15-0 you can’t be getting 20-pieced IN A HALF by a team about to fire its coach

For that kind of money, my wife would insist that I do it

“No Myth” by Michael Penn playing at the Home Depot. Absolute banger

It’s the ‘Penn State coaching search’ of regime change

All I know is I saw they were down eight going into the fourth at home and for the last five years I would have been utterly confident they were going to win that game and today I knew there was a 0% chance that was happening

Too many guys playing for the Nuggets right now don’t give them anything and that problem fixes itself a bit when AG and Watson gets back. I don’t know how you fix problems like “Cam might be unplayable” and “no bench creation for the umpteenth year in a row” and “DA might be over his head” though

Bidunga looks like he doesn’t even want to score the basketball

Kansas is, in the parlance of basketball, “getting its entire ass beat”

Charlie Condon I am very intrigued

Jack Corrigan just called Salvador Perez “a future Hall of Famer” and said “it’s pretty easy to say” and you’re damn right on both counts, Jack

Whenever anybody is ready to discuss that the primary difference in crunch time offense for the Nuggets this year is that they used to have a 3-man you had to worry about from behind the arc and now they don’t, I’m ready to have that conversation

A qualified substitute teacher is still a substitute teacher, maybe

This is the first time since the year Jamal missed that I’m really not enjoying watching this team play. Injuries are a lot of it but… not all of it

These Nuggets come equipped with a Bozo Mode that, frankly, I don’t care for

Doris Burke talking about OKC “just wanting to bring some physicality to the game” yeah dumbass those are called ‘fouls’
