The weather’s getting colder, but that won’t affect the Free Folk in Buffalo. They can survive the upcoming winter. As the leaves fall, so do the tables. This Bills fan embraced the changing of the seasons by performing a moonsault off a pickup truck bed. He actually pulled it off pretty well....
Chicken Nugget Smackdown: Wendy's vs. Burger King vs. McDonald's
Little kids can be cool, but there are a lot of obvious arguments against parenthood. Children are demonstrably shouty, snotty, and wobbly, and they are rumored to be very expensive to maintain.

Will Manny Pacquiao's Final Opponent Be Revealed Tonight?
The week in boxing news was dominated by a fighter who isn’t even currently in training: Manny Pacquiao.

Nah, That's Not Right
Asheville, N.C. ABC station WLOS tried a bit of pre-game prognostication on its early morning show today. There are... some problems here.

Big Fat Fabulist Ben Carson's West Point Story Is Bogus
Republican presidential candidate and hip-hop impresario Ben Carson is full of beans. Possibly he is as much as 82-percent beans!

Allow The Buffalo Sabres To Tell You Why Drugs Are Bad
Here’s a slice from the past: What appears to be the 1985 Buffalo Sabres sang an anti-drug song for the children. A nice person uploaded it to YouTube so we could all enjoy the hockey hair and awkward dancing....
<i>Houston Chronicle</i> Accidentally Burns Urban Meyer, Apologizes
Ohio State head coach Urban Meyer took a dig at Alabama today when he disclosed the name of his team’s field goal return play.

VOTE MARV BUSH 2016
It has been a lousy month for Jeb Bush, gang. He’s running out of cash. His polls numbers are in the shitter. He spends a lot of time now tending to his email. And he appears to be publicly melting into a puddle of tepid lip-sweat before our very eyes, if this tweet is to be believed....
Phil Kessel Cross-Checks, Gets Called A "Fucking Fat Fuck"
