Poor guy. I saw him the night before St. Pat’s this year at Underground, the same place he recently got kicked out of. These stories from Deadspin about him lurking around awkwardly all by himself and creeping on girls are absolutely true. We walked into the club at the same time and he was pissed off because he had to pay a cover. He said something like, “You’re going to make me pay a cover?”
I guess Jay forgot that nobody in Chicago really likes him, or knows who he is for that matter. Especially chicks at the club. Oh well, Jay. Today is a new day.
“Michael would turn, face and pivot, which Kobe will get to in the next phase. We’re seeing the evolution of an outstanding basketball player who’s not satisfied.” — Jim Cleamons, Lakers assistant coach and former Bulls assistant when MJ played in Chicago. It looks and sounds like the Black Mamba has yet to peak, which still makes me think he’ll be the best basketball player ever when it’s all said and done. Read about Kobe’s continually evolving game here.
This building is pretty rad. I think Richard Simmons lives here. Totally joking.
Read a pretty boring write-up about it at Fast Company.
This guy must be the most cordial bank robber ever. Chances are nine out of ten that he politely asked for a lollipop on his way out. There is a tumblr and book dedicated to bank robbery notes. All the tough gangster talk in these notes kind of cracks me up (no funny money, no one gets hurt, no sudden moves, start with the big bills, hurry it up, business as usual, etc.).
Although, I must say that I’m a bit disappointed there wasn’t a note with a “Show me the money!” quote next to a picture of Rod Tidwell. Is a little creativity too much to ask for, Mr. Bank Robber?

When Roger gets to an intimate stage with a woman these days, it usually doesn’t take long until the sexy photos start. His dating partners either request that he send them a suggestive—or downright explicit—photo from his cell phone to theirs, or they just send one themselves, completely unsolicited.
“I’ll say, ‘You have an amazing body. You have amazing breasts,’” he reports. “The next thing you know, you’ll get a picture of a breast,” he says with a hearty laugh.

Roger and his hearty laugh are both 59 years-old. His game is ruthless and he could be texting your Granny. Just keep that in mind when she puts whipped cream on your pumpkin pie this Thanksgiving. Sorry.
Kansas City Fails To Pick Up Option On Royals - The Onion -
KANSAS CITY, MO—In an expected move Wednesday, the City of Kansas City declined to pick up their 2010 option on the Royals baseball club, ending the team’s 41-year tenure with the Missouri municipality. “It was time to move in another direction,” Kansas City mayor Mark Funkhouser said at a press conference. “There were some vested incentives that would have automatically kicked in if the Royals had finished higher than last place, or won more than one championship in their existence. But we just couldn’t afford to make another mistake like that 18-year extension back in 1991.” The Royals have generated some mild interest from other cities, including Portland, OR and Copenhagen, though the Danish capital is said to be leaning heavily toward acquiring a public pool or parking lot.
This is terribly funny. In one of the most memorable conversations of 2009, sports genius BCKdy brilliantly recommended that the KC Royals “take off five years from baseball to reorganize and restructure the team.” Part of this reorganization included moving the team to a more suitable city such as Raleigh, Albuquerque, or somewhere in one of the Dakotas. After minutes of debate, it was decided that Mexico City is more than perfect for the Royals. Ciudad de México Royáls has a nice little ring to it, huh.
