Brett Favre opens up about his Parkinson’s. [TMZ]
Jenn Sterger (remember her?), upon hearing Brett Favre’s announcement that he has Parkinson’s, unloads on the guy for, among other things, being (allegedly) involved in a Mississippi welfare scam. She added the people who deserve sympathy are the people who were bilked in the welfare scam. [Outkick]
Dude who wrote “Moneyball” finally admits the statgeeks have ruined baseball. Gee, thanks pal. (An aside: He thinks baseball needs more Al Hraboskys.) [Awful Announcing]
Pirates really shat on one of their players. But then again, it’s the Pirates. Just a matter of time before Olivia Dunne’s Pirates All-Star pitcher/boyfriend gets traded. [Barstool Sports]

I heard a wonderful take about the offensive line and qb play from Brady Quinn the other day that relates to your link, Joe. Basically because kids are starting out in football later in life and hitting doesn’t occur until about high school, plus 7 on 7, O Line play suffers. QBs aren’t able to get timing in rhythm, because they’re constantly in shotgun and not developing with there drop backs. Also because they’re trying to go so fast they’re not learning to process defenses and just quickly get a play and go to keep the defense on its heels and score.
