Losses By Oregon, Kansas State Ensure All-SEC Title Game

I'm gonna preface all this by telling you that I don't really watch baseball, nor do I particularly care who won the AL MVP award.

Philly Weatherman Who Got Roofied And Robbed By Latvian Escorts Allegedly Shit His Pants
John Bolaris is nothing but a former Philly weatherman with a Twitter account.

The Red Sox Will Use All That Uncommitted Money Burning A Hole In Their Pocket
