Throwing it around

You gotta love Thursdays. Honestly, they’re the new Friday. Thursday nights anyways. If I was still a drinker, Thursday night would be the night to do it. You don’t waste a weekend day being hungover, and I’ve always said you can get through one day of anything (your Friday workday, hungover). Tune in tomorrow to Diamond Hoggers for the Baseball Show; we’re recording the first show tonight and it will be on the site by tomorrow morning. Here’s some morning links:
