  1. absolutely. cory's breakup advice, the tripod thread, how many 5 year olds can you take, the boston fan cruise and several others would be a great read once again.
  2. still have not red TKAM. the time i spend online has taken over time i used to spend reading. haven't quite found a way to balance all of it yet. brad meltzer intrigues me. i've known he was an author, but haven't read any of his stuff yet because of his tv show on the history channel. his tv show is rather low-brow and i dont really care for their conclusions or how "oh, that means JFK was having an affair" kind of approach. have been afraid his books would be the same kind of quality.
  3. one of my favorite MVP awards was to kirk gibson in '88. Gibson came in and changed the culture of that locker room. while there were others that put up better stats - including hershiser's historic season - that dodger team needed someone to lead them and to do so in a big, bold way. it started in training camp when jesse orosco put the shoe black in gibby's hat as a joke, but gibson would have none of it. gibson put up decent numbers, nothing trout-like, but that '88 team wouldn't have come anywhere near the playoffs without him and his influence leading them. and that's something that sheer numbers could not reflect. i like that this award is not based purely on stats. that's what the Aaron Award is for.
  4. i think that's the missing part of this entire equation. time to get married, TORS. i hear russian brides are lovely this time of year.
  5. if this is a recent thing and you weren't having any trouble before, you might want to look at your machine or (not kidding) your water.
  6. so best stats, stuff like that?
  7. glad to hear he's recovering. hope all goes well.
  8. out of curiosity, how are defining "most valuable"?
  9. man, he was drafted with such fanfare and promise. wish it would have worked out better for him.
  10. good for him. i figured he would last in the nfl 3-4 years. boy was i wrong.
  11. the tripod thread is still one of the greatest things ever accomplished on this website.
  12. yeah, i don't mind adding some pineapple occasionally. kind of a sweet and sour thing.
  13. good to know, don. probably good that this year's event was canceled.
  14. you must have missed all the articles after justice scalia died. social media has really given people the chance to show how much they blow.
  15. note to self: avoid standing next to or near Don at the next aw.com gathering.
  16. Hamburger buns and Chicago hot dog buns.
  17. when i was a kid we would eat it often enough. put a little lawry's seasoning salt on it and it was tolerable. we would even put it on toast that way once in a while. it's in a casserole that my wife makes and it's hardly noticeable there.
  18. monday finish today for the doosh bank classic. paul casey has shot 66-66-66 to take a commanding lead.
  19. you'd need something with a double ear flap, like a minor league batting helmet. gotta be a way to make them practical while not looking/feeling bulky and goofy.
  20. i eat cottage cheese because it has a good amount of protein. i also travel to portland occasionally and rent a subaru forrester. i'm a little angry sometimes, and for no good reason.
  21. Did they decide on a color scheme yet?
