Out of curiosity, I recently asked my friend which of the guys in this video she would choose. My guess was Maurice. Check out the video and then check out her response. I think it was pretty good. hhahahaa ummmm this is literally the creepiest thing i’ve ever, ever seen. […]
I was a make-pretend DJ for an event last week and got to choose the entire playlist. Taylor Swift, Miley Cyrus and Justin Bieber all made the cut. What does it say about me that I enjoy music from people half my age? I don’t know. The return of the […]
I just participated in a few fantasy football mock drafts on ESPN’s website. In case you’re keeping track, these are make-pretend drafts of a make-pretend draft where players play on your make-pretend team. I’m three levels of fantasy removed from reality. This can’t be good. I was chatting with my […]
I went with my father to the Patriots pre-season game against the Saints on Thursday. The stadium was big and beautiful, kind of like my biceps. We walked up about 14 ramps, and, after fighting traffic, parking lots and hunger, finally made it to our seats with 12 minutes to […]
There was a day they called “step up day” where the Middle Schoolers visited the High School for a day. I don’t know who was running the show for my step-up day (apparently nobody), because we roamed the halls, ate free popcorn and played basketball in the gym all day […]
How beautiful is this scene where Scott and Boof walk home? So beautiful, it is the first non-music video to be given the distinction of today’s daily dose of passion. The action picks up around 1:08 in.
Let me give you a little advice. There’s 3 rules that I live by: 1. Never get less than 12 hours sleep 2. Never play cards with a guy whose got the same first name as a city, and 3. Never go near a lady whose got a tattoo of […]
I spend about 16 hours per week in the car. Too much music overloads my brain, so I’m always on the lookout for good podcasts. Everyone seems to rave about NPR, so I figured their “Story of the Day” podcast would be a good way for me stay mildly entertained and informed […]

Al Horford headed to his first NBA Finals at age 35. In no small part because Horford, at age 35, is still damn good.
His major contribution to the world was not a set of aphorisms. He was born in a turdy barn, grew up in a dirty world, got baptized in a muddy river. He put his hands on the oozing wounds of lepers, he let whores brush his hair and soldiers pull it out. He went to dinner with dirtbags, both religious and irreligious. His closest friends were a collection of crude fishermen and cultural traitors. He felt the spittle of the Pharisees on his face and the metal hooks of the jailer’s whip in the flesh of his back. He got sweaty and dirty and bloody – and he took all of the sin and mess of the world onto himself, onto the cross to which he was nailed naked.
In his work and in his words, Jesus is making promises to the beaten, the torn, the broken, the depressed, the desperate, the poor, the orphan, the abandoned, the cheated, the betrayed, the accused, the left-behind.
He is, believe it or not, promising to fix it all.
