Wow...someone needs to take that guy aside and tell him "dude...its a game show"...

Probably could start with, "Dude... it's bar trivia."

The AL Central is pretty insane. 4 of 5 teams in the race and will finish mid-80s or higher in wins but they're only a collective +16 against "all MLB teams that aren't the White Sox". Records vs the White Sox: CLE - 8-5 DET - 9-1 (with three to end the season) KC - 12-1 MIN - 12-1 The Gu...

Damn, that one hurts.

Well, your commute time should give you an advantage.

Through two games, the "best supporting cast of any rookie quarterback" has helped score one offensive touchdown. It was a 49-yard drive last night that included a 24-yard pass interference call. Texans had seven sacks and were credited with 36 pressures on Williams' 48 dropbacks last nigh...

I read things like this and I get worried. I think we're doing awesome with the momentum, but in the grand scheme it feels like it won't matter. How Roberts Shaped Trump’s Supreme Court Winning Streak Alito and Thomas are in their 70s. We can only hope that Harris wins and they die soon. You mean i...

I was curious to see who would have the NFL shield in his profile pic and "ESPN" in his handle. Turns out, it's a guy who decided to run a burner that cribbed Ian Rapoport's bio, save for the part about his cameos in "Draft Day".

I just found out that, in college football, the quarterback cannot spike the ball to stop the clock unless there are at least three seconds on the clock. Florida State had just converted a 4th down to get to the Memphis 40-ish with the receiver being tackled with two seconds on the clock. FSU hurrie...

I assume her usage has to be up there too for a rookie, right? I just looked up the NBA career turnover leaders. Impressive list Isn’t Stockton up there? That would make a good SwampCrash question. I mean any very good PG with longevity is gonna be on the list. Of the top 25 in career turnovers, 19...

I had wondered about some of these records, but it makes sense now to hear that they're playing more games. I feel like announcers should mention that when announcing "most ever in a season" records. (But that turnover stat is nuts. She's beating the record by like 40%! Having watched a f...

I remember when Howard and I hung out at a bar with Hood's friend... because Hood spent at least 90 minutes outside on a Sunday night in February having a discussion with a woman he was/had been dating. That’s funny. I had drinks in Manhattan with Hood, Howard, and Oiler one time years ago. Hood sp...

So, are folks watching the debate tonight? We've decided to go to a brewery that's having a viewing party. Will be nice to be firmly entrenched in our Seattle Liberal Bubble.

A lot of drugstores have cut down on employees outside of the pharmacy (see also: everything in locked cases) to save on overhead. There are no employees around to stock shelves, provide customer service, etc. other than a rare employee near the checkout (and most people self-checkout because there ...

In the Super Bowl era, teams that scored zero touchdowns and trailed by 17 or more points are 3-1,225. Two of those wins are by Chicago, with the 2006 team beating Arizona. The other was by Kansas City against Carolina in 2016. Another 2006 Bears note... The Bears gained 148 yards, the fewest in a ...

Ticker has recently informed me Caleb Williams has 25 passing yards at the same point in time Justin Fields has 26 rushing yards.

Jim Brown isn't really the GOAT in lacrosse. People love to say that because it's a great story. He was great, but not the GOAT. For lacrosse, the Gait brothers have a good argument. Yes, there were two of them, but they were twins and played together, so they came as a package. He was so dominant ...

We also had 16 tornados touch down in the area in a one-week span this summer.

The amount of items eligible to be recycled when we lived in LA made us swap the two cans of different sizes, as we generated about three times as much for the recycling can compared to the trash can. We basically used an office trash can for our trash, which was mostly food waste.

Reese's rebound stats are pretty ridiculous. She's shooting 30 percent and a TON of her rebounds are basically her catching her own terrible shots multiple times in one possession. There's also the fact that Caitlin's assists (and points) are actually making her team better. Fever went from a team ...

I've been, once, many years ago. First year that Ashe stadium opened (1997). I had won a radio contest (long story...I'll put it in a spoiler below) that was sponsored by Heineken, so we had reserved seats in top tier of Ashe Stadium. For the other courts, including the old stadium (Louis Armstrong...

I spent the week on the other end of Southern California, at Pepperdine in Malibu. If I’d gone to school there, I’d never have gone to class.

I feel battery-operated mowers entering the equation has adjusted the answer, although I feel 8am should still be the baseline.
