We're going camping this weekend. I hate camping. My ancestors camped for 40 fucking years in the desert because they were complaining dickholes who reverted to idolotry at the drop of a hat. Camping was punishment, and the intervening 3000 years of Jewish history have been a relatively steady march away from

Well, hopefully everyone's rested up for playoff overtime hockey. Either that or resetting the "It has been X days since Rashee Rice has gotten into a new legal issue" board. Especially as we're in the post-draft, post-free agency doldrums. It's all conjecture and posturing, the least newsworthy news, unless you're

Whelp, it finally happened. This ragtag website, "run" by a bunch of idiots, shitheads, ne'erdowells, reprobates and overall dumbasses, has reached 10,000 posts. And I just want to say, on behalf of those behind the scenes, who put their heart, soul, time and money into this crazy little online clubhouse: What an

Still bummed? Yes. Game and series in the bag, and then a 4-point play here, a logo 3 there, and a little heavy on the Brunson heroball. All you had to do was not leave your feet and foul up 6 (Mitchell Robinson). Or hit both free throws up 2

So that was something, huh? To get 27 picks into the NFL Draft and then have the entire city of Detroit fall into a gaping chasm in the Earth's crust, a la the very fine text game Fallen London? I feel for all those trapped in their new underground catacomb,

So here we are. Clock is ticking. Mistakes will be made, both happy accidents and career-ending missteps. Christmas Morning for our deviant kind. Ho ho ho, bitches. As predicted, whole lotta bullshit spewing from all quarters. Also as predicted, I am not immune to the Draft Brain Slugs that infect the media

Not writing that one, just saying that the Draft is tomorrow and will inevitably get more eyeballs than the *checks ESPN app* five playoff sports events also happening that evening. Combined. Sure, the Jets have the 10th pick in the draft, but it's also the Jets so at the end

Ah Spring. When the grass begins growing, the basketball and hockey playoffs still feel fresh, and the pollen counts are so high that even Josh Gordon thinks maybe them plants should take it down a notch. It's also the time for my annual Book Binge. Being an antisocial nerdlinger, I read

7 gigs in 8 nights has come and gone, and there was much rejoicing for my bank account, especially after the check to the Treasury Department (aka, taxes) cleared. Which was good in that it essentially cleared dead money in that case. Less good in the amount of money, which
