Laurence was pondering whether people love him in his discussion of Charlottesville.

He's as bad as Julie.

No one cares, Laurence.


I just want to be in his will.

Dude makes $536,429/year.


I guess you are just counting his annual salary from the Score

$536,429 Score salary
$50,000 Score related appearances and live reads
$100,000 severance from NBC
$75,000 severance from 120 Sports
$150,000 as De Paul professor
$250,000 as De Paul announcer

I don't care for comic books, but that might be the one endearing thing about him. He embraces that side of himself whereas if Goff were a comic book nerd, he would hide that secret to keep up his tough guy credibility.

Holmes just feels more like a real person because he embraces that comic book/sci-fi nerd side of himself.

I love him because he can throw a football 60 yards. That's what he said last Thursday or Friday.

If he could throw it as far as his "big man" bullshit,he would be in the NFL.

A former college baseball player who was a catcher throwing 60 yds is not that hard to believe.


Laurence has always been truthful so you have to give him the benefit of the doubt

It really isn't the same as high school baseball either. I played in the summer at Riis Park for several years while in high school for a team that featured several Loyola U players (De Paul was their big rival). Most of them didn't make a high school varsity team. The club team was no cut and seemed more like extended little league. I'm not knocking it as it is probably a lot of fun for a college kid with an interest in the game but not a desire for sports to be the focal point of his college career. It's just that Sir is fibbing a little in his storytelling.

I think Laurence played at Homewood-Flossmoore. It isn't surprising that he would be a top player for the club team.

The way he talks about it kind of fits in with his gilding the lilly on his college options as well. The guy got in to Yale but went to De Paul. Ok!

Of all the lies he's told, that one about getting into Yale and choosing De Paul is his greatest. I don't even know how you say that with a straight face. But Larry is one of those types.

That would be like me saying Jessica Alba wanted to marry me but I chose Melissa McCarthy.

Some people apply even knowing that they may not be able to afford it. I got into some places for undergrad that I couldn't afford and couldn't get the financial assistance I'd need to go.

I think it's odd that that story is one people have an issue with.

Right. But I still don't believe Yale accepted him.

You're smarter than Larry and all you got was Illinois.

No thanks. Get a new wife that went to school with Jessica Alba and I'll take you up on that offer.

Not true. I meet them. I just can't get them to stop throwing drinks in my face or taking a swing at me. Just for saying "hello".

I think Jessica Alba would be different, though. She would like me.

I don't think that meets the definition of "meeting".

Sounds more like "accosting".
