inothernews: 17 years. 1,954 games. 1,664 hits. 1,065 runs batted in. 275 home runs. In the playoffs 16 out of 17 seasons. Four World Series rings. And a symbol of class.  Diana Munson, widow of Yankee captain Thurman Munson, thanked Jorge for “bringing me back to baseball.” Thanks for everything, Jorge. (Photo of a tearful Jorge Posada announcing his retirement from professional baseball at Yankee Stadium on Tuesday by Ron Antonelli / New York Daily News) Just want to say I credit this guy with getting me behind the plate when no one else would. Jorge is class at its finest, and when I played ball I tried to be as stand-up as him, even in the worst innings.

Madison Square Garden

So my parents and I decided to buy tickets for the Big East men’s tournament and go into New York City for the day.
My dad just told us a story as we’re sitting in New Haven traffic on our way to the train station:

“I was listening to sports radio last night at work, and they said that yesterday was the 40th anniversary of the Joe Frazier / Muhammad Ali fight at Madison Square Garden,” he said.
“You want to know why I thought it was a great idea to go to the city today? Because the day after that fight my mother took me to the city. I remember that because on the way back, my mom let me buy a Sports Illustrated to read on the train, and on the cover was Joe Frazier knocking out Muhammad Ali.”
“Was this the time you got the turtle?” Mom asked.
“No. That was when I was like, four years old,” Dad continued. “But it wasn’t like it was tomorrow or two days from now, it was 40 years ago today that I was in New York.”

“Weird, right?”

I can only assume Mike Tomlin’s girlfriend broke up with him last night? In the dark, with Ben Roethlisberger, listening to Phil Collins? That’s a lot of terror packed into one mental image. Please god tell me it was “Sussudio.”

This is probably one of the sickest things I’ve seen. As an ultimate player, I know what it’s like to give it everything you’ve got and leave it all on the field, no matter what. But this…this is leaving it all on the field without caring where you land.

Commentary and such from people a lot better at this than me.

Paris Foot Gay.

  • Me: okay, so there's this article on ontd_p that's about a gay French soccer team that got blown off by a Muslim team. The name of the French team is Paris Foot Gay.
  • Scott: Literally?
  • Me: HAHAHA. No. Okay, bad choice of words. My fault.
  • Scott: Paris foot gay!?
  • Scott: That sounds like a French foot fetishist's Google search.
