Fire at Sea

#FireAtSea: Death by a thousand (languid) cuts. So lyrically gentle that you don't realise at what point your heart is shattered by it all.

The Girl on the Train

Mike Greenberg Should Give Kershaw a Break

@Espngreeny Give the poor kid a break. He's carried the Dodgers up until today. Hendricks just happened to pitch the game of his life.

Dodgers Lose to Cubs 2016 NLCS Gm. 6

Terrible loss for #Dodgers & esp #Clayton #Kershaw. #Hendricks(?!) was lightsout #Cubs not so lovable anymore hope #Indians keep them losers

Keeping Up With the Joneses

#KeepingUpWithTheJoneses: Not bad at all, deserves better than its sad box office fate. Terrific cast chemistry. Isla totally steals it!

Dodgers Lose to Cubs 2016 NLCS Gm. 4

Uh-oh last thing #Dodgers needed was for the #Cubs bats to wake up! Poor kid #JulioUrias hope he can brush this off. Nervous for Gm 5! #NLCS

The Accountant

#TheAccountant: Ben gets his own thinking-man’s action franchise. Good fun, esp if you don't *think* about plot…character development...etc.

Rich Hill Beats Cubs 2016 NLCS Gm. 3

So, #RichHill pitched the "perfect" game for the #Dodgers...good thing #DaveRoberts left him in! ;-) #Cubs fans - freaking out yet?! #NLCS

Dick Enberg Retires

PS. You Know You're Too Old When: Dick #Enberg Retires. Discovered him through tennis - didn't realise he did every...single...sport! #OhMy

Deepwater Horizon

#DeepwaterHorizon: Brutally nerve-wracking! Nuance never let Berg stand in the way of action. Marky Mark's great but this is Kurt's movie!

Steelers Thrash Chiefs

So, it was #LeVeon all along! Apparently the offense and the defense missed the kid! Great win for #Steelers. It's still early but #HereWeGo 

USA Wins Ryder Cup 2016

Congrats #USA. Kids salvaged #Tiger/#Lefty's #RyderCup legacies. #Rory's took a big hit today from #Reed. #EUR gets a taste of own medicine.
