  1. Highly recommend the Guardian liveblog of the Eurovision proceedings: bit.ly/KUH1gp
  2. NFL over/unders are now up at the MGM books (Aria, MGM, Mirage, Bellagio, Mandalay, Monte Carlo) for those of you in town this weekend.
  3. Oh wow. It made it all the way through the nineties. But what of the 21st century? RT @czach1r: Robb Nen.
  4. Robb Stauber was the only person on the planet to ever officially go by "Robb", right? That died off after 1991 or so?
  5. @dcsportsbog @jamiemottram I'd go see "nickelback duh" play a show and so would every person I know. I want to start that band now.
  6. @matt_terl @jamiemottram I mean, I like Beach House and all, but calling them an all-time great band seems a little aggressive.
  7. Why are automated phone services always changing the order of their options?
  8. @tsnscottcullen There was bit.ly/LobG5z once upon a time, but it would take some work to find updated rosters, etc etc
  9. Josep Guardiola is ready to be seduced: bbc.in/KT3evz
  10. @jonahkeri What is happening in that framed portrait hanging above Chloe?
  11. RT @joe_sheehan: Papelbon has faced just two #3 hitters and two #4 hitters all season.
  12. Don't play Scrabble with him little dude he cheats RT @rak98 Me and lil Rak having a man to man convo eating applesauce bit.ly/LKk3OK
  13. RT @Grantland33: Two-Part B.S. Report: @sportsguy33 with @billbarnwell and @HousefromDC es.pn/JNmSx5
  14. Wrote about the opening NFL over-under win totals in Vegas (and the huge Day 1 swings they produced) for @grantland33: es.pn/MKHGWu
  15. @runofplay @andygreenwald I want more. I want to see Dutch Trader's Tumblr and Native American Chef's Amazon wishlist.
  16. @freemaneric You have to figure that the people who were put to sleep by the Celtics game will wake up soon.
  17. @SebastianPruiti Ha, thanks. Just shooting fish in a barrel.
  18. Got tons of respect for knowledge of scouts/ex-players. But when 198 players get chosen before Tom Brady, nobody gets to play know-it-all.
  19. Because, you know, nobody who played/coached/worked in the NFL ever gets talent evaluation wrong or needs to learn anything new.
