I'm a fucking hipster and I spent way too much on a pair of wool shoes. But goddamn are they super comfortable.

I guess the idea behind it is if I leave and come back Friday I'll buy more stuff while I'm picking up the shoes? I have no idea

I know fuck all about Macy's, but honestly, who wants to buy stuff at Macy's?

Whenever I shop, they usually give me a percentage off if I come in to buy between a very specific date range, which is too much effort.

I don't hate the Marlins jerseys, honestly. They're unique and work for a Florida team, and the colour scheme is awesome. Meanwhile, we have the Brewers (awkward font and boring colours) and the Indians (uninteresting dark blue, awkward font and racist logo), which I find much worse than the Marlins, as well as the D-Backs.

And the current Ducks jerseys in the NHL are terrible.

Yeah, the Rockies Purple jerseys are great. Their gray unis are also pretty good too, because their font and numbers really pop in purple.

If the Nuggets had their skyline style, I might have put them in my top five. And jeez, those last Baron Davis Warriors jerseys are extremely bad.

Top 5 in each sport:

MLB:
1. St. Louis Cardinals
2. New York Yankees
3. Oakland Athletics
4. Kansas City Royals
5. Chicago Cubs

NHL*
1. Montreal Canadiens
2. Pittsburgh Penguins
3. Boston Bruins
4. San Jose Sharks
5. Toronto Maple Leafs

(your rules suck, because the Red Wings would genuinely be my #1 here)

NFL:
1. Buffalo Bills
2. Chicago Bears
3. Oakland Raiders
4. Los Angeles (I'm not used to this) Chargers
5. Carolina Panthers

NBA:
1. Milwaukee Bucks
2. Golden State Warriors
3. New Orelans Pelicans
4. Cleveland Cavaliers
5. Philadelphia 76ers

The Miami Vice Heat jerseys blow all of those out of the water.

I'll do that with you. And yeah, the later Expos jerseys were not nearly as good, but they had a really awesome baby blue jersey:

Unrelated: I came across this image looking up the Expos jersey, and now I'm really sad

http://i.imgur.com/yPyOj0i.jpg

I find that the font style and any logos on the jersey are really important in baseball. The A's elephant logo is awesome, and their font is great too. Also, low key awesome hat.

BTW, polling the field here: Oakland A's uniform, top three in baseball?

I've said it before...I don't know anything about basketball, but D Rose is playing a fucking awesome game. Some Twolves fans were adamantly opposed to signing and I dont' understand why...it's minimum contract. There was literally nothing to lose and no downside, and he's been playing very well

Mostly because he can't do this on a regular basis anymore (or rarely at all, even), and yet he frustratingly does not adjust when he's having an off night. Dude's a liability more often than not (see games one and two).

I had a few of those in the house I grew up in. We had lamps hooked up to them, though, and they were a godsend.

I just saw on the twitter machine that the B Jays roof collapsed. I don't know anything about TBJ Field, but the vikings old stadium used to be the worst place in the world, and its roof collapsed. Here's a video of it, which looks like a crappy PS2 final fantasy cutscene

To be fair to the Skydome roof, it's a lot different when ice is forming for two days, and then falls in large chunks from 370 meters in the air.

I think it was a requirement that the SkyDome had a retractable roof, so we could actually get home games in March and April. And considering no other city had one at the time, it was verrrrry expensive.

The Jets "Go Jets Go" chant sounds way too much like the packers chant

It would be really amusing if they were doing this on purpose to channel the Packers.

It's more likely because hockey fans are not creative whatsoever.

Frozen pizzas are fine. They're kind of convenient if you don't have a car and don't want to pay delivery charges.

Go-to easy dinners are usually chicken legs/thighs. Easy to cook without much prep, and are affordable too.

Never been to Qdoba (I don't know if there's one here), but Chipotle is... adequate.

Anyways, work lunches suck. I can go to the nearest mall, but that requires me to take a subway trip (in between my office and the nearest mall is a massive interchange, for context). I mean, there's Starbucks at least?

Well, he's behind a piece of glass and a dude who can't see the ball, so he's gonna get his shots.

Also people like to legitimize Saudi governors because the US's relationship with Saudi Arabia vs. other middle east countries makes 0 sense outside of the money going both ways.

That, and the US has clearly picked their side in the Saudi Arabia/Iran proxy war in the Middle East.

Honestly though, anybody who thought The Rock would be a good politician is a dumbass, for reasons like this. He doesn't really care about picking a side or taking a stand, just looking good.

...in retrospect, this is kind of the extreme version of Justin Trudeau.

Baseball fans like to lionize the so-called "unsung heroes" in the game too much I think. A guy who doesn't hit much and poorly plays multiple positions can still be reasonably valuable but there are gonna be fans who say he's their favorite player. The best I can think of is a long reliever who comes in in the early innings when the starting pitcher gets knocked around. He can save the rest of the bullpen with 4 or 5 decent innings but everyone has turned it off by then so no one notices.

fuck you I love Gift Ngoepe and Mallex Smith

I know Mallex Smith is purely an outfielder, but he's a replacement level player who has speed and is super plucky af.

On another note, I'm going to make it a project to actually learn to throw correctly. I wonder if this is even possible at my age...
