The 15

New game idea: Wacky morning zoo radio show, or NHL teammates? “Listen to Heino and Steener in the morning for your chance to score Olivia Rodrigo tickets!”

I like getting barbecue rub when I pick up my leaf bags.

Patriots CB JC Jackson is not expected to travel with the team to Germany for their game against the Colts.

Check my prоfile tо gеt lаunсh money.

Red Sox should have moved Paxton at the deadline. Or Pullman. Whichever one they just let walk for nothing.

Dark at 5 pm means my seasonal depression is back!

Green Line B Branch Update: Shuttle buses replace service between Washington Street and Boston College while repairs are made to an overhead wire near Sutherland Road. And Red Line Reminder: Shuttle Buses replace service between JFK/UMass and Park Street from 8:45 PM to the end of service, November 14-16, for track work.

I like the nachos, but only with the little round tortilla chips.

Congratulations to the Foxboro High field hockey team for their 2-0 win over Swampscott in the MIAA Tournament! Way to ignore the noise, ladies!

“Gethin Coolbaugh” sounds like a light-hitting Negro Leagues player. “Coolbaugh batted .184 and stole 307 bases during the ‘39 season.”

Did you ever realize that if you never eat anything except leftovers, somehow you will still have leftovers? I’m not sure how the math works on that.

Ryan Blaney out-drives Kyle Larson to win his first NASCAR championship.

“It’s not really a lighthouse, but that’s what they call it.” YOU SHUT YOUR STUPID WHORE MOUTH SHANNON SPAKE!!

Hey gang of young up-and-comers, this week’s Phrase that Pays is, “I don’t have much interest in grabbing a beer with Craig Breslow.”

Y’know, If Lucy did decide to get an OnlyFans, she could probably make enough to fix that deviated septum so she wouldn’t be panting for breath by the end of walking for 40 seconds in her betting videos.

I’ve been listening to nothing but The Cars lately. Such a good band. There isn’t even a Phoebe Cates video sucking me in.

“Con facemask y todo” is fun to say.

Sometimes I see guys walk in and I think “ooh, I like that sweater I wonder where he got that” for half a second before remembering Jayson Tatum probably spent two months’ worth of my income on it at a secret store known only to NBA players.

Kimmi Chex is a totally real name.

Do other ppl use the bathroom as a house refuge? I live with only one other person, and often I’ll just be like, ‘welp I need a break from the rest of the house, time to stand and look at my phone in front of my bathroom sink.’

When Felger dies, Darren Rovell will reveal that he has the napkins Felger used to warm his legs.

Only you know and I know.
All the loving we’ve got to show.
So don’t refuse to believe it.
By reading too many meanings.

‘Cause you know that I mean what I say, so, don’t go
And never take me the wrong way.
You know you can’t go on getting your own way.
‘Cause if you do, it’s gonna get you someday, yeah.

Had assumed that Corey Seager was a good bet to make the Hall of Fame, based on his current trajectory. But, turns out he’s in 26th place among shortstops in Wins Above Replacement by age 29, between Hanley Ramirez and Rabbit Maranville. Two WS MVPs would help, of course.

People are noticing you, George Stephanopoulos.

In all seriousness, both The Beatles and The Rolling Stones have new songs out. What fucking year are we in?

Honk if you remember Joe Flynn.

Fox has Stink and Pink on the same NFL broadcast crew?

The Sara Civian fan club is strong and we stan.

Things I didn’t expect to see: The autograph line for Gina Gershon was much longer than the one for Marisa Tomei.

Add ‘plastered’ to the football lingo.

An Xfinity guy was just here and he turned on our television to see if it worked. They showed a guy on TV that was wanted and he looked exactly like me. It was actually a little frightening. Guessing that I was only the second most frightened person in the room.

All the Daylight I saved has been lost, like tears in rain.

Have fun with the sports betting, Maine.

Dick Drago. A closer before there were closers. Born too late to play on the beloved 1967 Impossible Dream Red Sox, now taken from us too soon. RIP.

Best bet for the weekend: All our veterans eating like kings on Friday restaurant-hopping for their free appetizers and desserts.

Material from interviews, wire services, Twitter, Meta, other writers, league and team sources, Bill James, and the members of #the15 were used in this column. Ein Prosit, ein Prosit. Der Gemütlichkeit.

Really, if you think about it, New England’s active pro sports teams are a combined 13-6. Not too shabby!

I hate whenever a Celtic tries a dunk after the whistle and probably always will. Being 10 ft from Tony Allen’s injury will do that to you.

How can Jones and Mego be in 15th place? Name 13 other radio stations.

Being a fired NFL head coach is the best job in the world.

An MRI confirmed the Vikings’ Pro Bowl QB Kirk Cousins tore his right Achilles and his 2023 season is over? That sucks. Comes across as a genuinely good person and is tougher than a $2 steak.

Karson and Kennedy or Karlson and Kennedy? Very confused. Sorry he died whoever he was.

Obvi, 84-win teams shouldn’t make the World Series.

Cakes are cooking for Kinky Friedman, Lyle Lovett, Fernando Valenzuela, Anthony Kiedis, Rick Allen, Kent Graham, Tie Domi, Erik Spoelstra, Jenny McCarthy, Aishwarya Rai, Coco Crisp, Natalia Tena, and Masahiro Tanaka.

When it’s 70 degrees in Boston on April 25, everybody wears t-shirts. When it’s 70 degrees on Oct. 25, down vests and quarter-zips.

Sigh. ‘Scissors’. ‘Quarters’. ‘Pharaoh’. We get it. You know all the terms.

I’ve got a bone to pick with Pringles. The inconsistency in the tall cans is getting out of control. Half the time they suck, half the time they’re incredible and remind you of the first can you ever had. They gotta figure it out. Anyway, I got Rangers winning this series in 6.

Wearing a hot dog suit around Joe Murray seems dangerous.

Hey gang of naval reservists! This week’s Phrase that Pays is, “Ahhhh do I uhhhh ahhh evah tell yah about The Rolling Stones in the Gahdennn?”

‘Trunk or Treat’ is a solution in search of a problem.

That trade for Harden? Clippers are going to be awesome 8 years ago! PTT!

Baseball is a sacred thing with me, the touchstone of my youth. In its pure form, its perfect, which is why I don’t approve of the DH, the shift, pitch clocks, stick’um, or comms gear on pitchers and catchers. If DiMaggio didn’t use it, I really don’t think it belongs in the game.

And a goal from the city kid…

IHOP puts pancakes on plates barely larger than the pancake, so any syrup you put on inevitably runs off the plate onto the table. This must be irritating many thousands of customers a day, but it’s been that way for decades and there is no sign they are going to figure it out.

There were three men came out of the West,
Their fortunes for to try.
And these three men made a solemn vow:
John Barleycorn must die.

They’ve ploughed, they’ve sown, they’ve harrowed him in,
Threw clods upon his head.
And these three men made a solemn vow:
John Barleycorn was dead.

Josh McDaniels? He lasted longer in Vegas than than Greg Bedard and he’s still getting paid.

We play hard around here.

That stupid Mike McDaniel watch story couldn’t be more tailored to impress the credulous NFL media had it been created in a lab.

Honk if you remember Honda opening their Marysville, Ohio factory.

Who gives out socks for Halloween?

A Nissan Rogue isn’t that bad for a rental. Just sayin’.

Football Cat with a 10-win, 5 loss weekend with the NFL picks.

UMass Football beat the USMA? Well, there’s a history of Minutemen defeating an Army.

Never vouch, Mookie.

Can the “Belichick is too focused on the win record to do what’s best for the team” people hear themselves?

Don’t bench Jimmy!

Best bet for the weekend: Amazing celebrity photograph opportunities at The RI Comic Con.

So much sportsing this time of year!

Bruins are a wagon. On ice. An Ice Wagon.

Anyone who unironically uses the term “green-teamer” should be sent to ADX Florence.

Congratulations to Craig Breslow on becoming the Head of Baseball Operations for the Boston Red Sox. Related, the Red Sox executive office Shabbos Goy has better job security than Matthew Slater.

Many people are dismissing the potential viewership of a Rangers/Diamondbacks World Series, but don’t discount the novelty of neither the Astros nor the Dodgers playing.

Was Bill Belichick padding the injury report to try and garner some sympathy and take the heat off??

Jon Smoltz called Game Seven a “must win” for the Astros. Okay.

From all indications, Bridgewater-Raynham and Chelmsford will not reach the 3-win criteria and thus not qualify for the D2 football playoffs. Betcha can’t wait to see Catholic Memorial playing host to Diman Voke

With Las Vegas winning the WNBA title, Aces minority owner Tom Brady can have his own boat called 8 Rings now.

Yo, @tntdrama & @SamsungTV , figure that app shit out. [This is why Roku >>>]

Taylor Swift didn’t have normal high school or college so she’s living out every awkward woo girl stage of her life in front of us.

CLNS has to be a money laundering scheme.

Fubo doesn’t have TBS but watching the Spanish broadcast of the NLCS has been great. I should start watching more sports in languages I don’t understand.

Hey gang of concerned netizens, this week’s Phrase that Pays is, “Nobody has ever overcome a rough childhood.”

These are the turnovers that kills drives and momentums. It’s bad enough to lose one momentum.

In and around the lake.
Mountains come out of the sky and they stand there.
One mile over we’ll be there and we’ll see you.
Ten true summers we’ll be there and laughing, too.
24 before my love you’ll see I’ll be there with you.

PWH Roast Beef Review – Mark’s Pizza and Subs -10B Washington Street, Wellesley – Juicy, red beef that dominated the sandwich. Really good. Excellent onion rings with thick batter and extra points for the steak fries. Pucks with Haggs Beef rating: 8.0.

Sheets of double-glazing help to keep outside the night,
Only foreign city sirens can cut through.

Dusty don’t know panic.

Chris Buescher of Roush Fenway Keselowski Racing’s three NASCAR wins may not be enough to qualify for the Cup Series Playoffs without a good showing in Martinsville October 30th.

Recorded the game on a non-HD channel. It’s like watching it in 1999.

That’s right, here’s where the talkin’ ends.
Well listen this night there’ll be some action spent.
Drive hard I’m callin’ all the shots.
I got an ace card comin’ down on the rocks.

If you think I’ll sit around while you chip away my brain.
Listen I ain’t foolin’ and you’d better think again.
Out there is a fortune waitin’ to be had.
You think I’ll let it go? You’re mad.
You got another thing comin’.
You got another thing comin’.
You got another thing comin’.

Yarmouth Massachusetts, a noted hot spot for comedy in October.

Malik, get up!

Gorg weather. Fall in New England on pointe.

Physical Therapy is one of the biggest scams in the medical profession.

That Poitras lad seem to be fitting in just fine.

Just dawned on me that two-factor authentication would accomplish ZERO in the event that the person who’s trying to hack your accounts is doing it with your stolen phone.

Stollen, on the other hand is delicious, but not yet in-season.

Coach Scar. Player Vrabes. TOTG’s with the Pats. Congratulations.

Bill Simmons has been crying about the Dodgers being eliminated after a really good season. It’s happened like 10 times now. Maybe it’s not small sample or the format, maybe they built their team on a foundation of legendary chokers? Who could’ve foreseen Mookie and Kershaw gagging in the playoffs?!

Will massage help Deshaun Watson’s subscapularis strain? Just asking the question.

Honk if you remember Operation Urgent Fury.

News Item: Gene Steratore issued a mea culpa after admitting he got a call wrong on Sunday.

Worst Hall of Fame candidate on the ballot, Joe West or Cito Gaston?

Congrats to Giannis Antetokounmpo’s agent.

Mixing imperial and metric units of measure is how you crash spacecraft.

The Head of the Charles Regatta was as magical as ever.

No, I don’t think Cooper Flagg “seems like a good fit” with Duke. Why do you think that?
