Now Marlins have fired John DeCicco, Billy the Marlin for over 10 years, at home games. Are they sure they didn’t trade the mascot for a peanut vendor?

That moment when even #Browns feel a bit sorry for #Colts

On a brighter note for Knicks fans with Porzingis injury, chances of landing a lottery pick just went up

–

When only time you talk about football is to call the NFL disgrace over kneeling players, it seems a bit disingenuous to use tragic death of a player for politics. #EdwinJackson

–

Scott Boras blames lack of @MLB free agent signings on a “noncompetitive environment.” How much blame though falls on agents like Scott Boras?

–

Safeway has champagne/sparkling wine on sale for Valentine’s Day. Discount for 6 bottles or more. For all your “one-and-onlys?”

–

A San Diego Girl Scout sold over 312 boxes of cookies near a marijuana dispensary. Give that girl a merit badge for entrepreneurship.

–

John Kelly claims Trump hasn’t read Democratic 10 page memo. “It is quite lengthy.” That’s about 20 minutes read out loud. Any way someone can buy a few days of commercial time on #FoxAndFriends?

–

#TheDow is on such a roller-coast @realDonaldTrump can’t decide whether to take credit or assign blame.

–

Fox’s Sean Hannity blamed yesterday’s stock market plunge “because the Obama economy was so weak all of these years.” Congrats to all those who had “less than 12 hours” in the pool.

–

Trump Evangelical advisor Gloria Copeland – instead of flu shots “inoculate yourselves with the word of God.” Well, one way to reduce Social Security costs, just have more people die.

Two New York lawmakers want new safer packaging and warning labels added to Tide pods to make them less appealing to eat.   What, and miss out on all those well-earned Darwin awards?

–

Democrats just won a Missouri House seat in a district Trump won by 28 points. I missed POTUS’s tweet taking credit

–

WH official says Trump’s military parade would be to “highlight service & sacrifice of military & have a unifying moment for country.”
I like “biggest inaugural crowd ever” better.

–

Here’s an idea. What if we let Trump have his military parade only if he wears his new #CadetBoneSpurs uniform?

–

Another reason it will take a while to schedule Trump’s military parade: Might take bands a while to learn Russian national anthem.

–

Steve Wynn just stepped down as CEO of his own Wynn Resorts. Apparently if it’s bad enough what happens in Vegas does not always stay in Vegas.

So will Terrell Owens be first NFL player ever fined for excessive celebration during his HOF induction speech?

–

So steroid users can’t be in baseball Hall of Fame, but football has no problem with murderers. #RayLewis

Warriors, Cavs, Spurs all lose tonight. Would be more meaningful if we weren’t about two months away from the beginning of the real NBA regular season. #playoffs

–

Steve Kerr on #Warriors “It’s painful obviously that our guys are mentally fried right now,” That stampeding sound you hear is rest of @NBA rushing to get their violins.

–

Warriors 30 point loss to Jazz was most embarrassing basketball story of the week. #Duke – “Hold our beer.” #StJohns

–

Many pundits figure #Eagles have as much chance of beating the #Patriots as St. John’s had of beating #Duke.

–

Trump’s tweet whine about his poll numbers & media reports ends “Oh well, maybe someday.” Same as he said about trying to be Kim Jong Un’s friend. What is he, 12?

Even Richard Nixon is thinking that Trump has a serious paranoia problem.

–

Trump’s tweet whine about his poll numbers & media reports ends “Oh well, maybe someday.” Same as he said about trying to be Kim Jong Un’s friend. What is he, 12?

Ryan talks about a $1.50 a week tax cut being enough for a Costco membership. Even he knows it won’t buy a small cup of coffee at Starbucks.

.

At least Paul Ryan didn’t say $1.50 a week would buy Americans a nice cake they could eat.

So Paul Ryan accidentally revealed real GOP tax cut plan for middle class: Give them enough money to buy lottery tickets so they can hope to win and retire.

–

But come on, isn’t it worth losing healthcare, clean air and water, endangered species, women’s rights, etc. if you gain a whole $1.50 a week.

–

Okay, really, if you were writing Democratic #DNC ad could you write it better than to say “All GOP budget cuts are worth it to save $1.50 a week?”

American Express partnering with NBA for “Jersey Assurance” program.  If your favorite player is traded or leaves his team you can change his jersey. Guessing this won’t happen with MLB.   The Oakland As alone could bankrupt program.

–

Eagles QB Nick Foles said he considered becoming a pastor in offseason. But Foles still wouldn’t have been able to top Saints safety Marcus Williams in getting millions on their feet screaming “Jesus Christ.”

–

MLB says all 30 teams will extend protective netting to “at least the far ends of both dugouts by opening day. So future generations of kids won’t be able to score foul balls (or get autographs)  because this generation pays less attention to game and more to their phones.

—

Trump has declined the traditional President’s pre-Super Bowl interview. Because it would interfere with his golf game?

Here’s an idea. if since Trump won’t do a Super Bowl interview NBC could ask Obama if he’s free to fill in?

–

Trump complaining Democrats doing nothing for #Dreamers with approaching March 5 deadline is like an arsonist starting a fire & saying firefighters won’t make the deal he wants with him.

–

Reports that White House officials worry FBI director Christopher Wray will quit if Nunes memo is released. Worry that he will, or that he won’t?

–

Trump tells GOP Orrin Hatch told him he’s the greatest president in the history of our country,” including “Lincoln and Washington.” Didn’t realize Hatch was retiring due to diagnosis of dementia.

–

As Trump attacks FBI director, remember, Christopher Wray was appointed as Asst. Attorney General at DOJ by George W. Bush & was Chris Christie’s personal lawyer. Not exactly a liberal.

–

Apparently opioid addicts are now using large doses of over-the-counter anti-diarrhea medication for cheap highs. Wow, to be that desperate how shitty do you have to feel? #bustohell

–

Let’s be real: If FBI, CIA & DOJ really had been all working together against Trump, then GOP would be calling for impeachment of President Hillary Clinton.
