Loved the home phone in my household until one of my fathers friends decided to write it on the wall of a cook county holding cell because he thought it would help him remember it when it was time to make his phone call to get bailed out. After about a year of receiving calls from random inmates asking to get bailed out my parents decided we would be better off without the land line.

In some ways, your father became God to these inmates. In your darkest time, call this number, and see who is on the other side. There was hope on the other side.

Now, like the landline, that hope is offline.

Get ready to bitch about the bullpen in April, no matter how good they are relative to the rest of the league. An experience like no other. Spring is near!

great, great batch. 10 years from now people are going to be talking about the Ben Johnson coaching tree and forget Shanahan existed.

I caught 5 minutes of a Bulls game last weekend at a bar. First action of the year. I watched roughly 70 games last year. Blow it up, sell the team, whatever, find me in 2 years.

If you need me I'll be on Twitter reading about the 15 guys who got snubbed from the All Star Game.

...bro Russell Westbrook is averaging 13/6/5 and impacting the Nuggets on nightly basis and hes getting left off in favor of Jaylen Williams? make it make sense..

The College Football playoff will be the All-Star game voting soon enough. Dude, how is Minnesota not in? 9-3 with wins over four Big Ten teams? MAKE IT MAKE SENSE!
