The 15

Felger should make “Tony, I Think You Had Something You Wanted to Say First?” a weekly feature.

Mookie needed 1927 Yankees Murderers Row protection to break out of his playoff blues.

Albuterol is still the best way to avoid wheezing a lot of bed.

The wax figure on the Liberty Mutual ads is by far the worst iteration of this series.

Who said D-Hop?

Looking forward to having the Dugie rally at City Hall if the Yankees win.

Cakes are cooking for Ang Lee, Dwight Yoakam, Weird Al Yankovic, Doug Flutie, Mike Tomczak, Al Leiter, Kevin Henry, Sanjay Gupta, Keith Van Horn, Cat Deeley, Ryan Reynolds, Pedro Liriano, Izabel Goulart, Emelia Clarke, Leah Van Dale, Fábio Tavares, Margaret Qualley, and Nick Bosa

Precious Achiuwa sounds like the name of a fat Lhasa Apso.

Lynx got jobbed.

Hey gang of paranormal pursuers! This week’s Phrase That Pays is, “To see the ghost, you must first believe in the ghost.”

Stammertime, welcome to Smashville.

Did TNT cut away to commercial because Paul Pierce had floated up into the TD Garden rafters too?

Honey Flower Dan Cong (also called Phoenix Mountain Oolong) is the best tea and it has been unfindable for months and it appears it has come back into stock in the US and is also way less expensive than it was last year. Big win for me.

Orange Line: Delays of about 10 minutes due to a signal problem at Forest Hills.

LeBron James the Younger debuting to play with his father was one of the most heartwarming painfully forced moments you’ll ever see.

Mercury Morris was the only thing stopping the Chiefs from going undefeated.

Bill Belichick was never 1-6. Bill Belichick never described his own team as “soft.” Bill Belichick never got the pass Jerod Mayo is getting right now. Mayo at 1-6 is treated better than Belichick was at 6-1.

Cousy is a cvnt hair away from being Jimmy Carter.

“Fernandomania” was a blast for baseball fans. Farewell to a Dodgers legend.

Charismatic megafauna!

Ime Udoka would have been at the banner raising if he knew white Cooz was gonna be there! What?

I see people saying that the Dodgers/Yankees series will get great TV ratings. Is that your belief? Because I’m skeptical. Put the two hardest teams in baseball to root for head-to-head, you really think that will draw big numbers?

Ridin’ in the bus down the boulevard,
And the place was pretty packed, yeah.
Couldn’t find a seat so I had to stand,
With the perverts in the back/

It was smellin’ like a locker room,
There was junk all over the floor.
We’re already packed in like sardines,
But we’re stoppin’ to pick up more, look out!

Another one rides the bus, another one rides the bus,
Another comes on and another comes on,
Another one rides the bus;
Hey, he’s gonna sit by you, another one rides the bus.

Retire? Are you kidding? The Sultan of Stat would never let down his loyal subjects (that’d be you and math).

Fun Fact: Entitled Town has an IMDB Page.

The Patriots are missing Rhamondre Stevenson, Layden Robinson, Ja’Lynn Polk and Curtis Jacobs from today’s practice Vederian Lowe returned, but looked limited. Keion White also looked limited.

Honk if you waited in line when the iPod was released.

Steve Kerr told TNT to go to commercial.

Imagine hitching your wagon to Mayo’s movable North star.

The Yankees installing Boone as manager for life is kinda weird. Like if the Red Sox had won the 2003 ALCS and then made Trot Nixon manager.

Clams hurt themselves posing with the WNBA trophy? Smdh.

Best bet for the weekend: the Fighting Irish over the Fightin’ Seabees.

Material from interviews, wire services, Twitter, Meta, other writers, league and team sources, Joe Giza, Bill James, and the members of #the15 were used in this column. Mayo on the hot seat?
