Around SBN: Four TCU Football Players Among 17 Arrested In Drug Ring

Does anyone understand how Sabathia fits in? Because I don't. Also if he wearing a Giants hat?

I have no idea what any of this is.

I’m old.

I think it's somehow related to this:

Yeah I knew it was making fun of MW2

I just didn’t realize Hamels was in it. Of course a Philly would be a spokes person for that glitch filled mess.

Wouldn't Cole Hamels being blown up by a bunch of grenades be awesome?

Seriously though

That was the worst thing about Modern Warfare online. You’d start a game, just running to get to a position and a second later there would be like four or five grenades right at your feet. The only thing worse than that is martyrdom, I still don’t get how that works.

Other than Starcraft like ten years ago, I've never played an online game against somebody.

I’m not “hip” anymore, it seems. I can definitely see see how that sucks, though. If people start fragging you basically before you get the chance to start playing, what’s the point?

you've obviously never been in a real war

it happens all the time – you teleport into a region, but the enemy knows exactly where you’re gonna magically appear, and they camp out with ‘nades ready to go, and they frag you. It sucks, but luckily wartime death only lasts as long as it takes to get inside their head, watch how they killed you, and then teleport you to a new location. I don’t get why so many people complain about war…

I didn't see the video but

to anyone who thinks this game is supposed to make fun of MW2, it is just that Battlefield: Bad Company 2 is a completely different game, they just are both modern day shooters.

Gas prices today are a lot like a pitcher's ERA. Anything under 3 is amazing, under 4 is pretty good and anything 5 and up is something you want to avoid.

The game isn't

the ad is.

Introducing Buddy Alderson, Sandy's dog, and the newest member of Puppy Avenue!

Embiggen here.
Judging by the comments to Matt Callan’s ode to 1986 Mets: A Year To Remember from a few weeks back, the video has a devoted Mets fan following. Despite being too young to remember anything about that season, it has a special place in my fandom as well. It was part of a two video rotation (Ghostbusters being the other) which ran almost daily on my television for a few years in the early 90s. And it remained a once-in-awhile watch through high school and college. 

Unsurprisingly, the physical tape deteriorated over time, and the screen jumps and sound skips made for a less than optimal viewing experience. With sale of the video discontinued, my brother converted it to DVD and gave it to me for Christmas in 2010. See the picture above for the box and DVD. He even created a scene selection function which can be accessed from the main menu. "Get Metsmerized!" plays on loop on the menu screen. It is my favorite Christmas gift ever and is still nice to throw on for a viewing.

"How'd we do it? Mirrors!"
I was flipping through some of my parents' photo albums this afternoon in search of one particular shot of the sign my older sister made for Mets Banner Day back in the late eighties. Though I didn't find that one — I'll post it when I eventually track it down, and I can assure you that it's Keith-themed — but I did stumble upon this wonderful photo of my younger sister's stuffed animal menagerie spread out in front of a glorious rainbow-festooned Mets pennant, also from the late eighties.

She works for the HRC now and was particularly delighted to be reminded of this photo.
