Cakes are cooking for Lou Ferrigno, Todd Gill, Bill Guerin, Chris Jericho, Susan Tedeschi, David Duval, Jimmy Hitchcock, Sisqó, and Adam Dunn.

Give me Matthew McConaughey press conferences all fucking day.

Can’t find a recipe (which tells me it’s a bad idea) – what happens if I mix up a negroni and put it in an ISI Siphon?

All the biggest media personalities walk home.

“The Colts signed Jeff Saturday to be their head coach? That’s bananas.” – Aaron Boone

Lanyards!

I order the club sandwich all the time, but I’m not even a member, man! I don’t know how I get away with it.

BROGDON should always be capitalized, in the way WARRIOR Ice Arena is.

Does Big Jim’s phone receive election information too?

Red Sox decline James Paxton’s option. He got paid $10 million to throw as many pitches as I did. Hot stove!!

No, baby, I said “terrible punt”.

Chaim Bloom said Oct. 6 that Xander Bogaerts is the Red Sox’s No. 1 priority. But the team also is preparing a Plan B in case he leaves.

Why is Dan Orlovsky wearing Sir Elton John’s glasses?

I want whoever came up with that awful Car Shield commercial with Ric Flair to go to jail.

You can tell it’s the Standard Time because it lasts almost half the year.

Pierre Nightmare! Sacre bleu!

Hey Space City gang, this week’s Phrase that Pays is, ‘Handle your liquor, stinkman.”

News Item: Russians to send convicted WNBA star Britney Griner to an undisclosed penal colony. I didn’t think Griner even likes penals?

I never had a damn thing, but what I had
I had to leave it behind

And I guess I always will.

Heard it in a love song
Heard it in a love song
Heard it in a love song
Can’t be wrong.
