Olympic etiquette – grills, grills, grills 021810 256

Sashaying up to receive her silver medal, Julia Mancuso opted to swap her ski hat for a tiara but, in an interesting point of etiquette, then removed it for the playing of the Stars and Stripes So my question to FK … where does the anthem-induced removal of headwear start for you? If this is ...

Grilled FKing Pork 2.16/17.10 194

Dates are soooo overrated anyhow.  I cannot believe any of you lazy FKers posted a Grill.  Y’all suck.  So there.  I working 14 hours and hafta come home to this? You gotta change your lazy ways, FK. Before I stop posting here. You got to change, FK And every post I make is dear. You ...

KOTD: tomato-based condiment sidebar 183

across a wide range of ketchup pricing schemes it doesn’t make much sense to invest time and energy in ketchup arbitrage

Grilled hearts on a stick, 021410 213

Surely Valentines Day deserves a new thread. Here’s monkeyball demonstrating Olympic-class disinterest: And here’s how I feel about all of you: "Kraut will get you through times of no money better than money will get you through times of no kraut."

The Coconut Bangers Ball–It’s a Wrap! 94

Guess who got his computer back today. Guess who’s spending his fat ass in the sign shop today to get you your free swag. Guess who’s the man with a golden voice that can make all the ladies swoon. Aw yeah. I’ve chosen the most aggressive and confrontational to place on my back bumper simply ...

Zips Projections for the A’s 97

out here Few semi-noteworthy things: -Zips has Rajai as a much better hitter than Crisp. -Not enthusiastic about Fox (league average, as here, strikes me as more likely than +7 for him.) -Bad projections for all the pitchers. I don’t usually look at the comps, but these were lots of fun, e.g.: Cust: Chili Davis. ...

Discrimination has pejorative connotations: The Grill 021010 292

WE’RE ALL GONNA DYNAMIC PRICING!!! (I agree with the general tenor of this takedown, but I think the “it’s good for all of us because the Invisible Hand will stroke the large and the small alike” nonsense is … nonsense. Teams aren’t under any obligation, moral or economic, to lower prices elsewhere, and I don’t ...

Beat bipartisanship in the back of the damned head until dead: The Grill 020910 98

Amerigasm! Sarah Palin is a fucking retard! No, she’s Eva Peron! No, she’s Nixon + Pat Buchanan! (Actually, I think that last one’s a grave insult to Nixon. Really, she’s basically Reagan with tits. Plus Nixon’s mean/paranoid streak.) Ben Nelson looks like Jabba the Hutt with a rug Via Calcaterra, yeah, George Foster really is ...
