Easy to not care when you’re rolling around in private equity like a pig in slop. I choose to root for a mom-and-pop baseball team, a real family concern.

Toronto’s own comedy legend John Candy had a knee injury playing high school football and they just… removed his patella. Forever.

Wow, even baseball’s most notorious cheating scumbag doesn’t deserve to have his patella explode into 1,800 pieces during a critical LCS game. Wow.

My Barbara Buono lawn sign disagrees. She had zero support from her party and, in fact, many Democrats were cowards supporting Christie. At least she had experience in state government!

Right? You're in CONGRESS, do CONGRESS stuff. Governor is the WORST job in this state! I'd rather be digging ditches.

A competent Dem candidate would be up by 15 points in this environment. Mikie might be the single worst NJ Gov candidate I've seen in my entire life.

If Bono had just done that classic rock star move and joined The 27 Club we'd be talking about him as one of the all time greats but no, he had to go make bad records in the 90s and beyond
