Brandon Marshall Is Better Than Drew Brees, And Other Fantasy Truths
Fantasy football may not have all the blood and sweat and violence and trauma of the game as it's played on the field, but there's at least one way in which it's just like the real thing: as John Madden put it, "usually the team that scores the most points wins."

The It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia episode in which Mac's very sad letter to Chase Utley is read aloud is four years old, but we'll excuse the tardiness of this response because it's pretty damn funny. Maybe Utley just had a lot of catching up to do on his DVR queue. ...

Where Have You Gone, Mickey Mantle?
I'm in a taxi, trying to get to Yankee Stadium. I'm late and I've got my uniform on. But when I get there the guard won't let me in. He doesn't recognize me.

When The Treadmill Makes You Hate What You Once Loved
I discovered something this week on the treadmill. God, the treadmill is just the worst. The absolute worst. That's not the discovery.
