Uh aren’t you getting married that weekend?
The week after. It ends the 13th and we’re ruining the sanctity of marriage on the 20th. In my IPA soaked state, I’m currently checking to see if it would be feasible to have a bachelor party in Denver. Like, would they arrest a man for...

The Casual Fan's Guide to the Super Bowl
illustratedexample:
Hey you, sort of sports fan. Are you unsure who to root for in the Super Bowl because you got too tied up in trying to keep Community and it’s unfunny jokes from going off the air? Or maybe you were hoping that Tim Tebow would make the Super Bowl so you could root for that classic Heisman Trophy and National Championship winning underdog who defied the impossible odds of...

Back to Back Scavenger Hunt Champions
Here is a short list of things my scavenger hunt team did in the last 24 hours to win the contest between our friends that we’ve been doing for the last 6 years:
get shot bare skin by a bb gun
streak a busy mall parking lot
eat 6 raw eggs
get peppersprayed
go through a car wash on top of the car’s hood
get a tattoo of your name misspelled
get kicked out of a wal mart
There...

Baseball Salaries, Just for Fun
Adding to my week long praise of Yu Darvish and silencing the haters who think that the Rangers overpaid for him, let’s look at how much the club will spend on him this season.
The posting fee was $51.7 M, so let’s divide that by 6 for the 6 years of the contract. That leaves us with $8.616 M invested for this season. And because of the backloaded contract that was signed, Yu is...

Yu Darvish versus the USA
Everyone and their dog are talking about Yu Darvish and it seems like everyone outside the state of Texas is not only expecting, but actively hoping that he fails. And if I hear another Dice-K comparison, I’m going to kill someone.
Dice-K’s lowest ERA in Japan was 2.13, the year before he got posted. Yu’s ERA for the last 5 seasons in Japan are all below 2.00. They average...

Mongrels will not be returning for a 3rd Season on...
From Mongrels’ facebook:
“Mongrels friends, it is my unbearably sad duty to announce that we will not be returning for a third series on BBC THREE, a decision that has been made based on the fact that apparently you need more than two people watching a programme to make it successful. Crazy talk. I’d like to take this opportunity to thank everyone at BBC Comedy, BBC THREE and...

"Mike Maddux downplays possibly adopting Japanese...
And just like that, the potential for weirdness and flexibility that I was hoping for is crushed. Let’s look at how the potential 6-Man rotation would have worked.
Colby Lewis
Yu Darvish *fingers crossed*
Derek Holland
Matt Harrison
Neftali Feliz
Alexi Ogando
If that doesn’t turn you on as a sports fan, you’re not paying attention. God damn you, Mike Maddux. God damn...

Lee and I are looking up songs that inspired our tattoos.
My right thigh tattoo came from this album. It came out a little over a year before I was born.

Austin Tumblrs
The future-Mrs. And I, along with 3 hipster friends and Austin’s own Eddie, will be in Austin on Saturday 1/28 for the Geeks Who Drink Geek Bowl championship. Afterwards, we’ll be spreading our love, nerdiness, and swag around 6th street. If you want to make a cameo at our Val party, drop me an ask or a fanmail and we’ll make it work, designers.

Allison Hagen: It's a Day-to-Day Existence.
oldtimefamilybaseball:
Having spent the majority of my late teens and twenties in a relationship of some sort, I decided it was time to be alone. After a particularly dragged out and painful breakup, I began a self-imposed break from dating of at least one year to figure myself out. Despite the fact that I’d been in my current city for a couple years, I had almost no friends. I was lost...
