- Can't wait for Paul and Nicole to change their last name after their honeymoon!

- Maybe they don't win any medals, but they'll win over your heart (or maybe they've won some medals I'm not paying attention).

Back by popular demand, it's Liverpool junk!
- The Echo wades into the Big Andy Saga.
- Man City trying some of that tapping up nonsense. I guess Liverpool might have some decent players after all!
- Stewart or Charlie for Deuce? Take them both!
-BONUS: A Bleacher Report slideshow for Matt!

I'm out all of next week. Anyone want to fill in?

- Here's a list that matters: All-Time Vacated Standings

- They claim it's more comfortable, cynics might say it's so they can keep people watching, but the US women's beach volleyballers will continue wearing their bikinis instead of switching to shirts/shorts.

- This may be the best NASCAR car design ever.

- Come on now. Did you actually believe there wouldn't be any tape-delayed Olympic events?
UPDATE: Give NBC the middle finger.

- Speaking of the Olympics, you hate them, don't you?

- GMiDHF.

- You tell 'em, Jerry! No seriously, I agree with him.

- Are you one of the 6% who will go out of their way to hit an animal on the side of the road? [via scratcho]

- Five guys (not of the restaurant) have posed for the same photo for 30 years. Kind of cool, kind of weird, probably worth a look.

- This photo of the Dream Team sleeping on an airplane is nice and all, but my favorite part of the post is the tag, "Sweet Dreams Team."

- So fucking sick of the US Olympic men's basketball team comparison shit. Comparing teams from different years is pointless and stupid, you fools.

- Mac OS X Lion sucks. Should you upgrade to Mountain Lion?

- Bristolmetrics.

- Yeah, Nick Offerman is seriously the best. [via Bra-d]

- Retailers have banned the sale of Buckyballs, which makes Nicole's family's set all the more valuable.

- I'm bringing this up just because of the stupidity of it - Facebook is working with HTC on a Facebook phone. That sounds so horrible.

- Funbag.

- Here's evidence that sometimes trying to embrace social media isn't the best idea.

- Old, but still worth bringing up - Olympic Village seems like the place to be. [NSFW according to Nate, I guess I agree.]

- Some people don't like Post-It Notes, but they can be useful.

- Maybe Harry Redknapp isn't so bad after all...

- Chris Ryan wants to know which Arsenal player had the most fun on his trip to Malaysia, and dammit, I want to know, too.
UPDATE: Alex Song is so cool.

- The 30: RIP White Sox.

- What do you think is the Traveler Photo of the year? [via Matt]

- Ichiro to Yankees? Yuck yuck yuck.

- It's always fun watching buildings implode!

I don't like seeing clouds...
Also, no Five Things today or tomorrow!

- A Nick Offerman interview!

- Bristolmetrics - it's JoePa, who else?

- Enjoy some sports infographics. Always fun!

- Here's to shutting up! (I originally misspelled it as "shitting up".)

Now this would be perfect.


- Here's what advertisements would look like if they were all Applefied.


- Funbag.


- Don't even lie - you're dying to get the Whitney season 1 DVD.


The New Yorker is getting creative (or uncreative) and using the same cartoon from Seinfeld for its caption contest. I'm not sure anyone can beat Kramer's "my wife is a slut" caption.


- OK, fine. Maybe I don't hate Kobe Bryant.

- The 30.

- Bad news for people like me, who are stuck on Windows XP: the new version of Microsoft Office (2013) will not support XP or Vista.

- Big penis.

- Check out the top NBA salaries, and begin to hate Kobe Bryant. [via Matt]

- Now that we have official word from President Obama that the Dream Team would beat this year's US Olympic team, we can all get back to our normal lives.

I'm going to add a feature starting today, running through next week. It will monitor the weather forecast for July 21 -  Nicole's and my wedding day. Here's yesterday's forecast (first day it was available), and here's today's. Thus far, it's not looking so great.

- Guhhhh, FU NFL.

- On Amazon, would you rather pay a sales tax and have the option of same-day delivery, or not pay a sales tax and have no option for same-day delivery? I think ideally, you should be able to choose with each purchase. But I'm not sure that's how it's going to be.

- Should you change your password?

- OK, I'm calling my shot. I think this story will be posted by ESPN in my news feed more than once.
UPDATE: BAM! That's a win, baby.
UPDATE 2: As of 4:21 PM, we're up to 6.

- In a recent sex survey, it was found that "78 percent [of New Yorkers] were open to using a vibrator with a partner." Interpret as you wish.

- GMiDHF.

- On days that I'm bored, I sometimes look up today's date on Wikipedia. Anyway, happy World Population Day!

- RIP Lennox.

- Bristolmetrics.

- Here's a pretty cool story about how a rescue victim saved the life of his rescuer.

- Awesome dog.

- Well this is just sad... Many people actually like Chris Berman! I'm becoming convinced that all those "people" praising him are really just fake accounts owned by Berman himself.

- Matt, this one's for you. [via Cole History]

- Funbag.

- Here's a cool vending machine!

- The Human Bowling Ball looks like a fun game for both children and adults!

- I am constantly hearing/reading about people who receive too much email. It's so bad, they say, that to have an inbox with 0 new messages is not possible. I don't doubt that this problem is real, and in no way do I want to have it. If you do have it, do you think email is a problem that can't be solved?

- If everyone lived by The Whisky Rule, the world would be an incredibly better place.

- The 30.

- Enjoy this live-action Metroid movie.

- Here's Chris Ryan on how to fix the monstrosity that is All-Star Break.

- Best fireworks show ever? [via Matt]

- Poor Arsenal.
--- What a great quote: "You can try and put a good face on a bad game for as long as you want, pontificating about the merits of this model, but it will not hide the obvious fact that it just does not allow our great manager to fully realise his managerial talent and deliver success for the fans who are paying the highest prices in the land." - Red and White Securities

Dunkin’ Donuts Unveils New Digital Billboard in Times Square with Help of Broadway Producer and Director Harold “Hal” Prince

- Yayyy, instant replayyyy.

- Apple's going to battle the Nexus 7 with the iPad Mini. Tablet battles are boring.

- Check out some barbecue recipes that feature Dunkin' Donuts coffee. YUM!

- It's official: women are evil. Well, 25% of them, at least.

- You didn't need another reason to not watch season 9 of The Office, did you? I think you might have. If so, here's one.

- With the holiday tomorrow, today kind of feels like a Friday. Here's the funbag to remind you that it's still only Tuesday.

- Reducer; The 30.

- Take Jake to the All-Star game!

- Haha, Joe Paterno "never personally utilized e-mail."

- Dominoes are pretty cool, but setting that shit up must suck.

- Meet HoodiePillow, perhaps the next Snuggie.
