Ataxia is the thing with feathers.

Dear Danny Ainge,

What the fuckity fuck fuck fuckity fuck are you THINKING? Stephon MARBURY? The grandest douchehole in NBA history?
I know you put together a championship team last season, but are you fucking kidding? If you pull the trigger on this I will personally drive to your house and paint the exterior walls with bacon fat.

Jim Hendry: What is Wrong With You?

Jim Edmonds… is a Cub.

Dear Sports Illustrated

That’s ok, we didn’t want to actually play the remaining 136 games anyway.
