The hijacked car was a damaged Honda? Really? Pfffft. These guys are amateurs compared to my wife. That's not even close to how you fuck up a Honda. No, the car with the Coexist sticker was a Honda (actually a Mazda), the hijacked car was a Mercedes SUV, but they look the same. Why ruin a hilarious...

suarez. player of the year? he'll lose that award by the skin of his teeth. Suarez gets a 10 game ban for the (over)bite on Ivanovic. Glad the FA handled it appropriately. OTOH, disappointed they handed Giroud a 3 match ban for a questionable red. I don't blame the ref for showing red during the ma...

Can't believe we don't have a thread for this yet. Rumors are flying around everywhere. Should be some deals happening pretty soon. A couple of reports have the Chiefs trying to move Branden Alpert and if they can't, they'll take Eric Fisher with the first overall pick. Who are the Jets going to wa...

I loved the old Swampcast conversations. Johnnie, Bronto and everyone who joined in really did a great job. But the thought of the free form blank slate submissions with a host is incredibly intriguing. I'd love to see what people throw out there. Short form poetry reading? Why not? Discussion of Na...

OMFG, guys. Glenn Beck is about to tearfully break this story wide fucking open! He has given Obama an ultimatum. To come clean to the American People about what really happened, or he will on his show on Monday! The only Beck didn't already tell us is that he thinks we should hear it from Obama di...

Yeah, "like" all of the wishes - it only takes a few minutes - and then the next morning a generic "thank you, OMG you are all so great" post for everyone. Yeah...I can never do that. By the way, some people do have some awesome birthday wishes (mostly Swampers to no surprise) b...

Not a free agent, but Revis is undergoing a physical with the Bucs and PFT says there is framework for a trade. For the 13th pick this year and a conditional 4th rounder next year. Revis signs a 6 yr/96MM deal. Oddity about it: no guaranteed money. Interesting. I, for one, am looking forward to a b...

I had a Racer 5 last night and liked it. I prefer the Dogfish Head 60 though. The guy at the store was talking about West Coast vs. East Coast style IPA. Can anyone here educate me on the difference? I wish I could speak intelligently enough about early hip-hop rap to make a clever analogy joke here.

Fortunately BFJ taught me that I could withdraw a PM before you read it. My hormones got the best of me this time of the month, and I said some things I might have regretted.

I'm presuming he's not being charged with the death of the MIT officer at this time. I imagine they have him dead to rights on that and worst case he does life in a MA prison without possibility of parole. Well, if he wasn't the one who fired the shot that killed him, he may be able to get out (som...

Lime Chile Mixed Nuts: I have never complained that anything was too spicy before, but this might be a first.

I really hope they clinch so they run out a bunch of second string players next Sunday against Arsenal. The battle for 3rd, 4th and 5th is absolutely insane right now.

I didn't want to honor Alex Jones with his own thread and didn't know where to put this clip. I've heard the name increasingly of late, but never actually heard him speak.

What is the opinion of Allagash White? I drank a fuckton of them last night and found them very tasty. Never had the White, as I am not a fan of wheat beer. Allagash are extremely highly rated. I recently had their Black, which is called a Belgian Stout on the label, I liked it. More mellow than an...

There's nothing new about what Barstoolsports is doing, not at all. It's "branding a disaster". And these are the guys that slapped their URL over a piece of home video that showed two terrorists fighting it out with the cops; classy move that, don't you think? That site doesn't say "...

I had some bourbon-flavored ice cream a few months ago. About as close to a relapse as I have been for about a decade.

No, rass, your post is framed well. Like Syb says, these sites that proclaim themselves media and then pass on pure rumor as if it is pure fact is the disheartening thing. But it's Gawker. Daily readers of Gawker or people who know what Gawker is should know better. Then again, people are idiots. I...

The 19 yo's real twitter account? "Tsarnaev tweeted this, Tsarnaev tweeted that" There is no proof that it is really his account. Didn't stop that site from assuming it is. But it said a cached photo matched his! What more proof do you need? Gawker isn't exactly a source of journalism. Th...

Figured this thread could get use for other reasons after this thread runs it's course. My wife sent me this story after repeatedly telling me to look it up and getting annoyed that I didn't.

Solid. I believe that as well. My first thought was that the perp is a minor league Timmy McVeigh. Some local jackass. Or, it seems, a minor league Timmy McVeigh and a minor league Terry Nichols. Yeah, so it looks like two suspects, not the one I assumed, which throws off my profile. Obviously two ...
