Sox Sign Sizemore

by Devine
None!

i like this!!

Oft-injured, out-of-baseball-for-a-while Grady Sizemore gets a 1-year major league contract. 750K base, up to 6 mil in incentives. Seems reasonable enough. A little more competition in spring training. If he breaks his knees in March, the Sox aren’t on the hook for much and he was once a truly awesome player on both sides of the ball in my memory. 31 years old and with about a million surgeries. We’ll see if he can shove JBJ back to the minors or what.

A Supercut of Sterling Archer’s Best One-Liners

by Justin Page
None!

YESSS!

UPROXX Video has created a great seven-minute supercut video of Sterling Archer’s best one-liners. The season five premiere of Archer aired on FX Monday, January 13th, 2014.

As we close in on the Archer Season 5 premiere, it only seems fitting to pivot our coverage from what will be happening this season to why we fell in love with the show to begin with. And nothing says that like a supercut of all the awesome things Sterling Archer has said through four seasons of being the world’s premiere womanizing alcoholic super spy.

Just a cursory glance at a few storm photos by Mike Hollingshead and it’s clear this guy has probably seen it all, and probably put his life at risk to do so. The intrepid storm chaser has been enduring foul weather since the late 90s, clocking some 20,000 miles a year in his car as he stalks thunderstorms and other extreme weather occurrences waiting to capture the perfect shot. Hollingshead shares his story with Jakob Schiller over at Raw File, and you can see hundreds of his photos, many available for purchase as prints, over on his website. All images courtesy the artist.
