Good Lord, that’s a rough existence.

Wait, caffeine too? Fuck that, man.

I don’t know which is worse. They are both equally bad. I drink decaffeinated coffee, trying to trick myself into thinking it’s the real thing. And I drink wheat beers, trying to trick myself into thinking it’s the real thing. I think hard about the other joys in life and wonder about having to potentially switch to fake equivalencies and it is pretty stark. Wish me luck…

I like a drink. But I’m pretty sure I’d rather give up alcohol than caffeine.

Just drink with your left hand and pretend it’s an old fashioned.

We get a game 7 in the NBA Finals. Since I have no skin in the game I’m all for it.

Excellent game from Chris Richards for the Nats tonight. Easily MOTM, great goal saving tackle and scored the matches only goal.

You’re welcome, America.

Robert Brazile gets a cool statue in his hometown. Mobile, Alabama has done a walk of heros for 6 Hall of Fame players from Mobile. Brazile, Ozzie Smith, Billy Williams, Willie McCovey, Hank Aaron and Satchel Paige. Ribbon cutting was earlier this week.

That seems like a lot of guys from a city that size. Some real “no-doubters” too.

I forgot Ozzie was born there. I know he grew up in Los Angeles.

Chelski has fallen behind 3-1 to some Brazilian side, and are playing a man down. This would be a sweet result if it holds.

He and Eddie Murray were high school teammates.

The analysis we’ve all been waiting for.

Basically, building up from the keeper like it’s a cult edict is stupid and stubborn. Adapting play to what the opponent presents is far better. Du-uh, I shouldn’t need to add.

Fun fact #1: Palace beat Citeh in the FA Cup final with a goal starting from our own goal kick, from which we played a couple of short passes to suck in the high press and then lobbed the ball long (thank you Chris Richards) to Mateta who had been left one-on-one with one of Citeh’s “ball-playing” CBs (i.e. a midfielder). The rest is history…164 years in the making.

Fun fact #2: Dean Henderson played more long passes than almost every other goalkeeper in the EPL.

Fun fact #3: We’ve got Super Ollie Glasner; he knows exactly what we need.

Kevin Durant is a Rocket

World’s worst giveaway goal in the US-Haiti match.

Game 7 all tied up 16 all, Haliburton goes down, turns the ball over, now OKC leads 18-16 and Haliburton looks out for the game.

Yeah, something popped in his leg when he pushed off. Gonna be tough for the Pacers without him.
