I'm in a restaurant and I literally just laughed out loud at this post. Well done.

Road games against four of the top 10 teams...wow. Ole Miss' schedule has to be the hardest in the county.

Handball is stupid

Love how the only reason she was on that team was to do exactly that and she did it.

upon closer scrutiny it looks like what screwed up Bagwell the most was that only two first basemen were taken in 3 of those 4 years. 1998: Only two 1B taken and it was Big Mac and the Big Cat. 2001: The starter was Todd Helton (who I'd say earned it that year) but the backups were Sean Casey and and Klesko who were each their teams only All-Star. This is the year that is most damning of that representation rule because at the All-Star break Bagwell had 21 HR and 68 RBI (using those stats because that's what most voters look at I'm sure). 2002: Only two 1B taken. Helton starter and Sexson backup; both were only player from their team although both were having very legit seasons. 2003: Same as 2002, only two taken and it was Helton and Sexson. Helton was only player taken from Rockies but Sexson had Geoff Jenkins with him.

The outer lanes are slower and have been forever. The fact that you only learned that yesterday is why you think it's just a rationalization. haha, I don't really think it's just a rationalization. I'm sure there was a detriment to being on the outside given that the best are always given the middle spot. I just didn't know what it was. And excuse me for not knowing about the dynamics of competition swimming until now. Yeesh..

Maybe they were just making excuses for why Phelps didn't do crap.

Found it sorta interesting while rabbit-trailing on BR today that Bagwell was only a four time all-star. Seems like he would have made more than that. Looking through the NL rosters of the years when he was in his prime but didn't make it, it looks like he suffered multiple times from the "every team must have a player" rule because twice Richie Sexson and twice Sean Casey made all-star teams when Bags didn't. Same with Ryan Klesko in 2001 with the Padres. Helton was on a bunch of the teams too that Bags wasn't on and was the only player from the Rockies a few of those years, although I think he may have gotten in on merit those years anyways. You could also automatically subtract a spot for Bags during most of his career because of McGwire and then Pujols.

why is swimming on the outside lanes a detriment in swimming? never heard that explained yesterday.

1968, Bob Beamon breaking the world record by a whole 2 feet. He actually out jumped the measuring equipment so it took them a while to figure out how far he actually leapt. http://s3-ec.buzzfed.com/static/enhanced/web05/2012/7/26/14/anigif_enhanced-buzz-14557-1343328871-9.gif

I guess I missed that... What did he say

He called them "the Pearl of Africa". What's wrong with that?

Z came off very well last night basically saying "It wasn't the Cubs fault, wasn't Chicago, it was Carlos Zambrano's fault. That's why I'm wearing a Marlins uniform."
-
Yeah I didn't see anything wrong with that "you're my bitch" part either. It was a funny exchange.
-
Precisely.

Well the fun of the last three weeks or so has now completely disappeared. ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
