Wearable Tech Won't Fix What Is Broken Inside Of You<em></em>
Once upon a time, inspired by the good works of Kinja Deals, I bought something called a Lumo Lift. It’s a wearable tech. As far as I know, FitBit is both a unique wearable tech and also a genericized trademark for this sort of thing (fit bit). As far as I’m concerned, when I am wearing the Lumo Lif...

Rob Gronkowski Crashes White House Press Briefing

Last we heard from Eric Thames, the former MLB washout who went to the KBO and flexed all over the league, there was cautious optimism that he could carry over some of his form to Milwaukee and maybe make the mustachioed Brewers mascot guy slide down the home run slide a few times in the major leagu...
