Jim Harbaugh Will Smack Your Jaw

This that Jim Harbaugh that'll smack your jaw.

Harbaugh's intensity is well-documented. Whether he would literally smack your jaw is speculative but not implausible.

Unsubscribe Then Subscribe — That's The Motto

Unsubscribe, then subscribe, baby, that's the motto.

A foundational PMT philosophy. The logic is airtight: you can't subscribe unless you first unsubscribe.

We Like Our Apples Unwashed And Bought On The Side Of The Road

We like our apples like we like our clothes: unwashed and bought on the side of the road.

A lifestyle manifesto. The FDA recommends washing produce, but grit doesn't care about the FDA.

Pull Up At The Cincinnati Zoo And Pay Our Respects

Pull up at the zoo, pay our respects.

Harambe was killed at the Cincinnati Zoo on May 28, 2016. This rap was recorded in June 2017. The pilgrimage is an appropriate act of grit mourning.

Skyline Chili Is Thicker Than Chris Sabo's Rec Specs

Skyline thicker than Chris Sabo's rec specs.

Sabo's rec specs were legendarily thick. Skyline chili consistency varies by location. A viscosity comparison for the ages.

Is That Mario Andretti? No, That's Jim Irsay

Is that Mario Andretti? Nah, that's Jim Irsay.

OpinionFootballScorchingSarcastic
Jim Irsay was arrested for OWI in March 2014 in a suburb of Indianapolis. He was going notably slower than Andretti's typical pace.

Grit Is Undrafted Slow-Twitch Muscle Fibers

This is undrafted slow twitch muscle fibers.

A biological definition of grit. Slow-twitch fibers are associated with endurance, not explosiveness — the perfect metaphor for a lunch-pail guy.

Matthew Dellavedova Taking A Charge Is Peak Grit

It's Dellavedova taking a charge.

Delly was the consensus grit icon of mid-2010s NBA. An undrafted Australian who dove on every loose ball and took charges against guys twice his salary.

Woodhead In The I-Formation Is What Grit Looks Like

This is Woodhead in the I-formation. This is the coach's son, son.

Danny Woodhead in the I-formation and being the coach's son are two of the purest expressions of grit in American sports. Combined, they are the unified field theory of grit.

Zack Hample Belongs In A Garbage Can

First name Marlins, last name Man, I'll stuff Zack Hample in a garbage can.

A subjective assessment of Hample's worth. Garbage can capacity would need to be at least 55 gallons.

Lady Luck Smiled Down On The Viet Cong When Marlins Man Missed Vietnam

I was one year late for Vietnam. Lady Luck smiled down on the Viet Cong.

Marlins Man implying he would have single-handedly turned the tide of the Vietnam War is an all-time self-assessment.

Zack Hample Is Jeffrey Maier With A Blog

Zack you a joke, I'll put you down like a dog. You Jeffrey Maier with a blog.

Both are famous for catching baseballs they arguably shouldn't have. Maier was 12 years old during the 1996 ALCS. Hample does maintain a blog.

The Marlins Man Beef Is About Jealousy, Not The Troops

It's not about the troops, it's jealousy.

A perceptive media critique. Marlins Man wraps himself in the flag but the feud is really about who's the bigger baseball celebrity.

Marlins Man's Mouth Is Always Behind The Plate

Problem is your mouth always behind the plate.

Double meaning: Marlins Man is known both for his behind-home-plate seats and for eating on camera. Both are factually accurate.

I Hope Marlins Man's Horses Die In A Lake

Fuck your law firm, I hope they lie to your face. Fuck your horses, I hope they die in a lake.

This is a wish, not a claim. As of this writing, Marlins Man's horses have not died in a lake.

I Hope Marlins Man Gets Found Like Catherine The Great

I hope you get found like Catherine the Great.

References the apocryphal myth that Catherine the Great died during an encounter with a horse. Historians widely regard this as slander spread by her political enemies. Still devastating as a diss.

RG3 Folds And Splatters Under Pressure

And to be honest you more like the latter. When the pressure is on you fold and splatter.

RG3 went 13-21 as a starter after his rookie year and was out of the NFL by 2017. Folded and splattered is a fair summary.

RG3 Should Respect Shanahan

Respect Shanahan, I don't plan to scram.

The RG3-Shanahan feud was well-documented. Reasonable people disagree on who was more at fault, but 'respect Shanahan' is a defensible position.

RG3 Disappointed The Dog Pound Just Like He Did Atlanta

Don't disappoint the Dog Pound like in Atlanta man.

RG3 went 1-4 as a starter in Cleveland in 2016 and was benched. He did indeed disappoint the Dog Pound.

RG3 Did Subway Commercials — You Know Who Else Did?

RG Knee, so controversial. You know who else did Subway commercials?

RG3 did appear in Subway ads. Jared Fogle was sentenced to 15+ years in prison in 2015. The implication is devastating.

Danny Woodhead Would Play The Game For Free

He's Woodhead, say his name with me. He's Woodhead, he'd play the game for free.

Woodhead earned approximately $11M over his NFL career. He did not play for free.

Danny Woodhead Goes Straight To The House Every Time

Which way did he go? Which way did he go? Straight to the motherfucking house!

Woodhead had 32 career touchdowns on 1,137 touches — so roughly 1 in 35 touches went to the house. Not every time, but more than you'd expect from a guy his size.

Scoring Touchdowns Is Routine For Danny Woodhead

As he takes it to the house for the six-point score. Hands the ball to the ref, he's been there before.

Woodhead scored 32 career touchdowns — respectable for a 5'8" undrafted running back, but not exactly routine.

Danny Woodhead Protects The Shield

He's Woodhead, he protects the shield. He's Woodhead, and he wrecks the field.

If anyone protects the shield, it's a lunch-pail guy like Woodhead.

Woodhead Is Rushin' And Wet Like Putin In The Rain

Working up a sweat, moving the chains. He's rushin' and wet, like Putin in the rain.

A triple entendre: rushing yards, Russian, and the famous photo of Putin walking shirtless in the rain. Elite wordplay.

Woodhead Didn't Go To Harvard But He's A Student Of The Game

Didn't go to Harvard, but a student of the game.

Woodhead attended Chadron State in Nebraska, which is indeed not Harvard. He was known as a high-IQ player.
