SportsFilter: The Monday Huddle:
A place to discuss the sports stories that aren't making news, share links that aren't quite front-page material, and diagram plays on your hand. Remember to count to five Mississippi before commenting in anger.
Tom Brady just got an extension. I need one a heck of a lot more than he does.

And that Colin guy that is the Thomas Friedman* of sports talk radio has his predictable melt down over it
* - "I'm going to take this one kernel of truth and talk about it for hours at a time, all the while never minding how badly it breaks down over the course of discussion."

Tom Brady just got an extension.
My son was working on a 2-month contract doing marketing research for Trip Advisor. He just got extended indefinitely. Sadly, there's no multi-million dollar bump in his pay, but after having been unemployed for about 8 months, anything was welcome. Thank you, beaverboard, for contributing to his unemployment benefits from the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
By the way, beaverboard, what sort of an extension did you have in mind?

The kind my inbox says I need.

Oh, so you need to extend your auto warranty too?

Both auto and manual.
