I am convinced that Trump does a terrible job of wiping. Just smears it around and says mission accomplished.

I really want this to make a difference. I really hope it does. But it feels like almost everyone covering the team the past few years has hand-waved away criticisms and calls for change with the previous hitting coach as a meaningless gesture. "How much do you think they matter anyway?"

Lots of things suck right now. But the new Cryogeyser album? That is a thing that does not suck at all. So you could have that today, if it would help. youtu.be/dF3nXlx4kkM?...

Based on the volume of emails the Blue Jays are spending way more time trying to get fans hyped for giveaways than the team on the field and...you know what? Fair. Makes sense.

The most comfortable people in the world (in the history of the world?) have made themselves insane on the computer

Sending the kid off to school attempting a vaguely inspirational message: Have a great day. Make the day what you want it to be. Him: Perfect. Plenty of dumb stuff. (Leaves) *Cat's in the Cradle plays

A great sign for your top five baseball payroll team is before their first spring training game the team's own broadcaster is saying "they don't have the offense to scare teams anymore"

the simulation is simulatin

Has someone asked Schneider if he thinks the improved second base defense will also benefit whoever is playing first base in August and September?

Probably speaks more to Rogers overall PR weakness in general, but it is incredible to me that the front office did not have a messaging plan in the event they could not sign Vlad. Instead they sent the robo GM and the expiring contract pres to drop a sad sack statement and bounce. Get your tix now.

There is never a bad day for the Ted Rogers statue to be rehoused to the bottom of the lake, but some days are better suited than others.

Hey Ross, the fanbase would happily include your corpse if it got a Vlad deal done. Now go on out there and tell the media how hard you tried. They will love it.

Franchise players. Meaningful playoff runs. Fan excitement. Those things are trivial. Basically empty calories. You know what really matters? Hanging out in a Corona branded corporate space while a techno Morgan Wallen remix blasts at volumes that will echo through a cavernous stadium. So cheer up.

Not a top tier organization. Won't be unless they make some major changes. Depressing to see the biggest payroll in team history and it be for a team that might get lucky and scrape into a wild card before rebuilding.

He refuses to go out in the snow and when you finally get him out he is basically drunk.

Anthem wars are funny as hell. Stone faced sports reporters who still refer to team owners as "Mr. xxxxx" like they are their teacher demanding solemn respect for a song that is not "The Boys are Back in Town"?

This Valentine's Day, show the person most important to you that they are appreciated. Be generous. Extend every courtesy. Come together to celebrate your commitment to each other. Do you hear me Blue Jays? Vlad contract now you irritating assholes.

It has felt like a small miracle having a really good independent guitar shop close to my home. Sad to see it come to an end.

Being a tall person at shows must be a trip. Knowing no matter where you stand people are, at least a little, annoyed it is that particular spot.

Waking up the morning after Super Bowl chili.

I don't think this is still embargoed but Draft Kings will be unveiling a new Manning Brother in an add later in the game. It's not a bit they made up for an ad, either, they crafted a real guy using proprietary Manning DNA. They call him Slumper and it sounds like a freight train when he breathes.

Go bills

Whatever nightmare factory made this de-aged Jimmy Johnson horror show on the pregame should be razed to the dirt and nobody should set foot on its cursed grounds again.

At a time when pain and suffering are far too often a part of people's lives I do think it is important to celebrate and be grateful for the wins when they happen. So I just want to express immense gratitude to the universe, because Aaron Rodgers time with the Jets was a huge W for me. No notes.

"Toronto gave me an incredible opportunity. World Series come and go, but chasing 84 wins? That is the stuff legends are made of."

Starting a thread of shitty photos I take at concerts this year. Show 1: Jack White. Loud as hell (compliment) and a nice tight setlist.

Charlie Baker can go fuck himself

Stephen Holyday loves taking L's. It is his kink. He is already hard at work imagining new ways he can take an L while sweating and breathing heavy.

This website rules lol

Thirty more days for the amateur trade experts to refine their cosplay for the next round. I believe in you.

That Doechii record goes so hard. Hope this makes more people check it out.

Drove past an encampment being destroyed by Toronto police with bulldozers etc. Not a media outlet in sight and I can find no coverage anywhere. We may not have many reporters anymore, but thankfully we have plenty of columnists paid to tell us how important it is to subscribe to newspapers.

The Blue Jays rotation will definitely have valuable opinions on footwear with excellent arch support. Also probably a strong point of view on how everything on TV feels poorly lit.

Do I think there is any sort of conspiracy for the refs to favour Kansas City in games? No, that is obviously ridiculous. Am I happy large sections of the public are making them feel undeserving and placing asterisks on their accomplishments?

This one hurts. This season felt different, but alas
