I'm going to regret saying I would cook tonight.

Came home and got comfy in my spot.

Does Taco Bell deliver?

"Gable Steveson, an Olympic gold medalist and one of the most dominant college wrestlers in NCAA history, is jumping to the NFL to sign with the Buffalo Bills, his agent Carter Chow told ESPN.
Steveson is signing the standard rookie three-year deal and he now will set out to join Bob Hayes as the only athlete ever to win a Super Bowl ring and an Olympic gold medal.

Steveson knows the learning curve will be steep but is excited for the opportunity.

“I have been fortunate to compete at the highest level of competition in my sport but am looking forward to the challenge of seeing how my wrestling skills may translate to football,” Steveson said. “I am grateful to Coach (Sean) McDermott, (general manager) Brandon Beane and the Buffalo Bills organization for giving me this opportunity.”

The 6-foot-1, 275-pound Steveson is expected to play defensive line, something he hasn’t done before during his athletic career. In fact, the first time Steveson ever put on a pair of cleats was at a recent workout for the Bills."

Per Schefter.

I've seen some wild videos over the years with spirit airlines. Don't care how cheap it is, you will never catch me flying them
No I won’t either. That was in the terminal though, where the hell was security?

Pretty cool discussion on pitching philosophy in MLB. I like this approach. The Phils horses have seemed to be leaking oil come October November when they eventually get eliminated. Hope this approach extends their arms.

I recently passed on saving $150 if I flew Spirit from Seattle to Fort Lauderdale. Although tempted to save the money, I just couldn't bring myself to do it.

Can you beat LaVar Ball in a game of 1 on 1 though?

Oh hell yeah. And I could beat him in a game of 1 on 1 blindfolded.

Doesn't seem too out of norm....my guess is what is keeping it down is they don't have at least 1 guy who can throw 97-98?

In the segment they show a dip in player velocity from one year to the next but more of a break rate or movement
