Tim Tebow w a hilarious walk off single in the Arizona Fall League

Link to ESPN Angle ^


The cliche knee slapper youre going to see from media outlets later today will be "You know what kept that ball fair & away from the Third basemen? God, thats who." Or something like that.

Tim gave his team a 4-3 win, & somehow pounded that pitch not almost directly into the ground, but swung SO late (cant really see the pitch location so he may have had to) that it took a line where i think the whole ballpark may have been suprised. It was so towards the 3B/left field line that it looked like somebody trying to go oppo in mens slowpitch softball, but fucking up. Im kind of curious what the hell the guy was referring to when basically yelling "hysterical"(espn video) right as the pitch was being thrown. Next thing i immediately looked for while rewatching was the other teams bench reaction, Gotta assume its a very basic "Tim Fuckin Tebow". Hes somewhat like Bobby Boucher. Alot of "Yes Coach, No Coach", says grace at the dinner table, loves his mama & fooseball.

Also F ESPN for making you watch the Von Miller commercial everytime you wanted to replay the video too.

Reddit Thread: What's something "childish" that you still enjoy doing?

So other than giving my 2 cents on current events all the time, something i'd like to get going on here will involve Reddit Threads. Whether it be via Twitter, FB, or other sites I've accumulated a bunch of topics, articles, video/docs, & questions that I've stashed away and will be breaking down once in a while. Although this seems like I'm cutting corners in terms of developing shit to write about, i plan on picking out the best and craziest replies to the question at hand, as well as my own original "answer" to compare. So for the first of many RSIV RT's is "What's something "childish" that you still enjoy doing?". With this is definitely a couple ways of brainstorming. Theres the route that "childish" is something you genuinely enjoyed at a much younger age, and this still occurs today. Nottttt necessarily the kind when you're drunk/fucked up & a group of girls reminds you of how childish you are. Either way is fine since I'm running the show.

Here's the link for whoever wants to check it out.
https://www.reddit.com/r/AskReddit/comments/4cybrk/whats_something_childish_that_you_still_enjoy/?#prclt-TsmelX1Y


ME: Okay so i'll give 3 of mine, while taking 5 from the Reddit Thread.
Right off the bat this seems like a real simple question, but i mean theres a million things to choose.

1.  CHARACTER MAC & CHEESE. I get fucking pissed when i find all we have is the original and its not the spirals or shapes (SpongeBob, Ninja Turtles). This was my stance in 1998 seeing as there is 100% a difference in terms of taste and to fit this into the initial question, i do still enjoy eating character Kraft Mac & Cheese over the other kinds. Facts.

2. When sitting at a red light i'll attempt to count down (3....2....1...) the seconds till it turns green. This doesn't really sound interesting but its the process i guess. Along with this is the attempt to watch the other traffic lights and get the timing down when once it hits yellow.

3.  Eating Hot Fries. Childish because i know its going to fuck up my mouth. Doin' it anyway.

WORTHY OF MENTION

Killing fire ants. I will go out of my way to kill them any chance I get. 
When I was a kid, I used to find an any bed next to concrete, and rile them up, and then sit there and smash then with a rubber hammer for 30, 45 minutes as they tried to rush toward me. 
I don't do the hammer thing anymore, but i do enjoy burning them.

LOL uhh alright buddy.

Walking on a narrow edge like the edge of a curb or a planter. Nothing says "fuck my responsibilities" like a grown man with airplane arms walking a tightrope. Shits fun yo.

Sobriety Test. Touche.

Painting glue onto my hands and peeling it off when it dries.
Edit: How is my first reddit comment also my best? Thanks for the welcome guys.

I'm 35, and I just bought myself a play dough fun factory last week, because it's awesome to fiddle with when you're just hanging out and drinking.

Nice.

Farting in my hand and putting in someone's face.
I'm 32 next week.

Doppelgänger: Blake Bortles & Sam Hunt

Hmm 




                                                                                or





So this is clearly a (have you ever seen these two in the same place?) joke, but i really do think there is some resemblance. Both guys are 6 ft 4 inches tall, former college QB's (UCF & UAB), live and die by 5 o'clock shadow, have been/now are rich, and most obvious of all they get their fair share of tail. Granted Sam Hunt is 7 years older, figured id bring it up. Regardless, both studs.


                  UCF & Jacksonville Jags QB







                                     or

                 Country Singer/Songwriter




































PS:Rough Go here. I almost stopped once i saw this in google images. Also realized after searching about 35 minutes trying to match shit up, that they barely in fact look alike. Whatever.

Portland Trailblazers low key collecting MA guys in 2016-17

After snooping the waiver wire on the ESPN Fantasy App i noticed something, theres a good group of Boston repping hoopers playing for the Portland Trailblazers. G Pat Connaughton (St Johns Prep), PG Shabazz Napier (Charlestown/Lawrence Academy), PF/C Noah Vonleh (Haverhill/New Hampton), and SF Jake Layman (Norwood/King Phillip) all were forces within MA High School basketball as well as AAU (BABC, Mass Rivals, & Middlesex Magic) between the years of 2009 to 2012.


UConn 2x National Champion Shabazz Napier


 PS: TBT: Time @ the 2009 Black History Month Classic Public vs. Private i stole some shine from Shabazz. Found the youtube video that actually doesn't even show me whatsoever, but the archived boston.com article is there if anybody's got the $10 for it.



ND Alum & Baltimore Oriole  RHP Pat Connaughton                                    


 Maryland Alum Jake Layman
                                           

                                                      Former Indiana Hoosier Noah Vonleh
                                               


I could've gotten really in depth here with each guys back story, College bball careers, and draft/role situation in POR but i held off. Figured its just a little "Did you see that _____?" type thing.

Lets try this (again)

Alright so ive decided to attempt to keep a running blog for the forseeable future. Currently i have a typical cube job with plenty of opportunities to keep updated on twitter, IG, Complex,Barstool etc, so i want to take advantage of that. I plan on tapping into hypotheticials, pop culture, sports, and just gossip in general whenever needed but i dont want to just be posting filler and uninteresting topics just to churn stuff out. I know some people will say "Okay Swan, clearly watched you bitch out on a blog then a podcast" but whatever shit happens. I had to bail on the Wait What Podcast (which is getting deleted) because i fell asleep the night after NYE with my Macbook, ALSO a semi open bottle of water. Woke up & thought i like pissed myself (nbd), and cant be keeping all the vulgar topics, links, and shit i was collecting and move them to another Mac on the same storage as my parents. Because of this though i have saved 15-20 blog worthy topics that were podcast segments and aren't dependant on todays current events.

The Website/app i have been using is great but ive decided to join up and get my opinions out via brtndesign.com, with none other than Matt "Burton" Pisani. Hes got his own content hes cooking up and i figured adding a blog well help us both, mainly so i have incentive to keep attempting to blog and have something to show for myself other than tweets. This will be my last post on Blogger so catch me on brtndesign.com soon. Lets get it Burton.


PS: i have a couple people who i anticipate will be adding their own peices to the puzzle, so hopefully the blog wont just be me spewing my sometimes unpopular opinions.

Adding the site logo isnt working from my phone right now so follow Matt @TGODBurton on twitter and @brtndesign on IG.

1st Annual Winthrop SSOP November 27th


Alright so we finally have Salvy's Series of Poker for the non contact event we've been waiting for to accompany the Hatzisavas Roundball Classic, HSZ Winter and Summer, Strikeout Kingz Wiff, Tennis Open and anything else considered to be kind of affiliated. Salvy's is  a tennis restringing company (?)  run by THE Kenny Hodge and he took the initiative with the help of some other people to get this thing going.


If you've already been invited, this was the official text you should've received:

"You been invited to the 1st annual Salvy’s Series of Poker will be held at St Johns hall in Winthrop Friday November 27th at 7PM. Entry is 40$, a portion of the money will go towards the WHS girls tennis team.  This is a BYOB event, (there will be a silent auction, and everyone who enters will be entered into a raffle for a prize at the end of the night.) Please let me know asap if you are in or out, It will be maxed out at 50 people in the tourney. Prize pool will be decided at the tournament, most likely top 4 or 5 will be paid."

Some of the money will go to whatever expenses are needed. Getting Tables, card, chips, all that shit.


PS: Might as well plug some friends as they are one of the sponsors, the Wrestling Podcast @KickOutat3. Developed and produced by Joe Wallace, Kenny himself, and with input from Pat Delaney/Kevin Cash whenever necessary. Figured why not mention the boys since they're up n coming and will be part of this whole operation. Check out their two KOA3 live videos done by @LostInSpaceENT



Part 2

                                                 


PPS: Anybody pretty much is allowed in this, "strictly Winthrop" type stuff doesn't apply here. More players = More Money. See you guys then. Hit up @napKEN2044, @kickoutat3, or @bobbyswansonn with any comments/concerns/fuck yous.

Okay so i got a new phone and i went from a 4S to a 5C (i know thats poor shit), but my GB doubled from 8 to 16. Theres about 10 apps i didn't get to have because i chose to have my iTunes library since I'm a big music guy. So, one night i redownloaded Vine and went on a binge copying down some funny ones i saw from Junior year of college. In 2013, Vine had just came out and was HUGE.

Some of these you may have seen, some you haven't. Go Bears.
