Old Time Family Baseball: Ichiro Changes His... →
oldtimefamilybaseball: Nothing beautiful can last forever. It’s why James Dean and Marilyn Monroe are still so popular—their looks will never see the damage of time and being out in the sun without sunscreen. For a while, Ichiro Suzuki seemed to be the one person immune to all of that. He’s still tall and thin, avoiding… I believe “innocent until proven guilty” is a two way...

On DFW's Birthday
Me: What's the most appropriate way to celebrate DFW's 50th birthday, you think?

NYT: Roger Federer as Religious Experience →
Today David Foster Wallace would have turned 50. As someone who fancies himself a writer, DFW has had indescribable influence on me. Take a look at this article because I really think it reflects who he was as a writer in a very real and interesting way. Also, I just love watching Roger Federer play tennis. And of course, you know, read Infinite Jest and every other thing this man wrote in his...

bopmarrykill: Greetings fair readers. SEE! This makes two of these this week! So shut the fuck up about my hiatus or whatever. Anyway, before I start talking about how great I am for no longer being too lazy to write a hasty blog about fucking people, let’s get into this thing. So, today’s a pretty big day…. ALIVE I TELL YOU!

bopmarrykill: I told you I was back. You didn’t believe. You were all “this blog is dead.” But I was all “WRONG, MOTHERFUCKERS! THIS BLOG IS ALIVE! LIKE TUPAC AND ELVIS!” or something. Anyway, it’s time for all of us to forgive and forget and to start talking about celebrities in the context of sex. This… It remains alive!

oldtimefamilybaseball: Proof that baseball does not come with a protective shield around those who cover it, comes a report that Philadelphia Daily News writer Bill Conlin sexually assaulted four children in the 1970s. From Philly.com: Three women and a man say they were molested as children by Bill Conlin, a… This is a well written piece about sexual abuse. In general this is a...

Old Time Family Baseball: Announcing the First Old... →
oldtimefamilybaseball: With the holiday season just around the corner and goodwill and cheer in men’s hearts, I am happy to announce that in just under a month, the Old Time Family Baseball Blogathon will kick off. Though many have already donated to charity recently, it’s important to remember that when December ends,… Seriously, this would be a totally cool thing for you to look at.

Photography
I recently brought my old film cameras back with me when I went home in October. I shot two rolls and brought them in to be developed yesterday. One was a special type of black and white film that needs to be processed with color chemicals, and that was ready when I got there today. It was totally blank because I am dumb. Anyway, get prepped for some super douchey photo posts of pictures I took of...

oldtimefamilybaseball: In one corner, the Australian Wonder, the Thunder from Down Under, Peter Moylan. In the other, modern radio’s most hated rock band, Nickelback: And in a stunning display of wit and brutal passive aggressivity, Nickelback stuns the world with a unanimous decision. Though, and perhaps Peter… I hate to say this, but yup, Nickelback won.

oldtimefamilybaseball: Thanks to some inside sources, I was able to secure a copy of Justin Verlander’s day planner. Here is how he planned his day before pitching seven shutout innings against the White Sox en route to his 23rd victory on the season: 8 am: Wake up, eat zone diet bagel and 1/2 cup of fresh picked… I’m gonna gay marry Justin Verlander for all the fantasy points he...

So this is the trailer to the first feature I script supervised back in April. I’m really impressed with how it looks. The crew that I worked with on this was (and I mean this very earnestly) the best people and nicest guys and remain some of my closest friends out here. So check it out, and I’ll keep ya’ll updated on this and any other things I’ve worked on.

This is Real
What follows are the actual lyrics to a song written by an adult human. This particular human is in one of the world’s most successful bands, and is married to Gwyneth Paltrow (I think, still right?) Anyway, look on this, and try to suppress the desire to murder him, because he’s famous, and they’ll investigate that shit. Oh, and the title is “Every Teardrop Is A...

So the lead singer of this band is a dear friend of mine, and the rest of those dudes seem pretty cool too. So why don’t you just at least consider helping them organize a tour?

oldtimefamilybaseball: Uh-oh. Already falling behind to the rest of the world in health care, education, and ability to locate items on a map, it looks like Americans are also becoming worse at heckling. From Hunter Pence after he hit a home run to help the Astros avoid a sweep at the hands of the Blue Jays: … GUYS! It’s up to us to bring heckling back to America. I gotta track...

An Exercise in Easy: Get Fucked Up. →
brian-k: I purchase a lot of music. I have experienced many varying degrees of service from record labels.
