Andy Jonathan April 10, 2020 0

Let’s Just Call It “Smell Ya Later”

Sam Fels March 10, 2020 0

Funny, when you’ve been doing this 12 years, you think about the end a lot. And then it gets here, and you still don’t know what to say. So I guess it’s best just say it. Today is my last day captaining the good ship FFUD. The time has come for me to move on. […]

New World Order: 2020 White Sox Previews – Luis Robert

Adam Hess March 10, 2020 0

Continuing our trip trough the outfield, we now come to the most exciting White Sox prospect since, well, last year in the form of Luis Robert.

The Legacy of Kobe: Nuance and the Black Mamba

Tony Martin January 27, 2020 0

Kobe was a world class athlete, and a rapist. Kobe was one of the greatest basketball players on and off the court, and he was a rapist. Kobe learned foreign languages so he could speak to players on the court in their own languages, and he was also a rapist. Nuance is important, but it […]
