They were eliminated by the Twins in the first round, an even smaller market. What's the big deal?

If you want a GREAT sports book, read The Damned United. Movie is good too.

When they first announced this movie I thought ZOMGLOL this will be awful but it's getting good ratings on rotten TOMATOES and a

even though it doesn't mean "here we go" potato will use the bud light slogan as his rallying cry

we finally saw this movie and the first thing potato though was "boy, how amazing would it have been to have royals +1.5 there".
