Help Out A Family Who Deserves It

For us to say anything nice about a Yankee, a wearer of pinstripes would probably have to save a busload of children, a school for the disabled, and a senior citizen tour group from terrorists all in the same day.  David Robertson is doing the real world equivalent of that.  Robertson has started High Socks For Hope, a charity to help families devastated by the recent tornados in Robertson's hometown of Tuscaloosa, Alabama. The funds help to rebuild and repair the buildings and lives damaged by nature's incredible power.

Quote Of The Day

It combines two of our favorite things on earth: sports and White Russians (which I'm sure the five of us who went to Vegas a couple of years ago for spring break drank a swimming pool of that one night in the MGM).  After seeing a string of Lebowski things this weekend (t-shirts, bumper stickers, etc.) I figured we'd go with the most famous quote of em all.  Enjoy.

Player Wives - Ex-Wife Edition!


Come on down, Candace Cameron!

Along with Kelly Kapowski, DJ Tanner dominated every fantasy I had when I first started figuring out the whole "Hey, if I do this..." aspect of growing up.  Apparently Valeri Bure, who is more famous for being a twin than anything else felt that marrying into my crushes of the 1993 was sound advice.  It ultimately didn't work out, but he got to do what every male born between 1984-1990 always dreamed of: fucking DJ.

These Guys Did What Matt Holliday Didn't: Touch Home Plate At Coors Field


If you are a Rockies, Padres, or hardcore MLB fan the joke wasn't lost on you.  If it is lost on you, just know that in Game 162 Holliday may or may not have touched home plate in scoring the winning run that sent the Rockies to the playoffs and ultimately the World Series.  Deadspin the other day had a great video of a pair of guys living my dream out of running around the bases at Coors Field.  Then a security showed up and then the cops, turning the sweetest of dreams into a relatively shitty nightmare.  But imagine the bar stores!
