I know that OKC won both games and I know Philly isn’t going anywhere this year.- Which is exactly why this isn’t a “rivalry”. Lakers v. Celtics. Bulls v. Pistons. Knicks v. Heat. Those were rivalries. This was just a fun game, which Deadspin apparently felt the need to highlight with a shameless clickbait title.

Great article. I see several ‘subscribers’ have posted here. To be honest, I’m shocked that a website like this can survive these days and surprised anyone would pay for this kind of content. You can stream the games live on your laptop, watch highlights on TV, see the postgame interviews the next morning online, and…

Worse yet, they’re flooding the Deadspin site with this stuff too. They are trying so hard to make this “Overwatch League” bullshit happen, it’s awful. I’m guessing some big-wig hired a research firm that boldly went for the “Gamerz are athletes” pitch, and somehow it stuck. Embarrassing that Deadspin fell for that…

Agreed 100%. These little fucks are exhausting - I’m glad this girl “withdrew” from school and got embarrassed about her behavior. But she’s just a drop in the bucket. There are hundreds of thousands of rural white teens using the n-word with their friends, snapchatting, while gaming, etc. They think it makes them…

Good points, all of them. But you have a decent job, you’re a homeowner, etc - if your son doesn’t make it, you’ll be just fine. Bridges’ mom, on the other hand, is living in Flint MI and working as a receptionist. She paid big bucks for him to leave home and play HS ball in West Virginia at one of those “basketball…

Totally agree man. This dude should be in the EPL, no question....as long as he doesn’t play for Liverpool, Chelsea, Arsenal, Manchester United, or Man City, of course. I’d love to see Neymar suit up for, say, Stoke or something and bring them a title. It would be hilarious and cool, as opposed to playing in France…

Are you the type of person who posts pictures of your baby underneath the photos of a wedding you didn’t attend? “Beautiful wedding! Too bad baby Ayden couldn’t make it, here’s a picture of him taking a nap”.

Drew likely did what I did: turned off the TV after the Saints made that field goal with :25 on the clock, and then followed the game thread on cbssports.com or something.

Agreed. “I was trying to be nice to Americans, and I rightfully got fired for being such a friendly guy”. Not exactly an apology. Kind of like saying: “I tried to be nice to my girlfriend, so of course she dumped me”. Whatever that was, it wasn’t an apology. Good on him for at least saying “I fucked up”, but I don’t…

Been waiting for this regime to hit the shitter for over a year now. Despite several fiascos that would have taken down presidencies in the past (sexual assault, collusion with foreign powers, being mentally unfit, etc), Team Trump is still alive and kicking. Lots of documents being published over this past year, lots…

The Golden Knights should take advantage of this trademark claim and change their entire uniform, color scheme, and name. Their unis look like a 1990s AHL team and the “Golden Knights” name sounds like the type of moniker a high school chooses after they had to trash “Injuns” to get with the times. Just awful stuff.

Love me some Mountain Time. East Coast baseball starts at 5pm, plus you can even watch most of the West Coast games without falling asleep on the couch! Mountain Time is the best baseball time.

While on vacation in South America, we’d booked a flight to Brazil from Buenos Aires and had planned to spend a week in Rio before heading back to Argentina. A couple days before leaving, someone casually mentioned “Hey, since you’re from the USA I hope you’ve gotten all of that Visa crap taken care of”.…

Totally agree. When you rage-quit a video game, you throw the controller. You do NOT call a SWAT team in on the other guy, and get him killed. And then to have the balls to actually tweet “I didn’t do anything, technically” - what the fuck??? I hope this guy gets a life sentence. This SWATTING shit is out of control…

Thank you! Yes, this is fucking murder.

So the jockey mysteriously falls off the horse for no reason, inches from the finish line, saving the track a half-million dollars? Even the most non-skeptical among us can see that this is a pretty blatant fix, right?

This deal has got to be one of the worst trades ever - not just on paper (did you see what the Marlins got for Stanton?!?!) but also because this was, in fact, called a ‘trade’ in the first place.

Problem is, the poor whites don’t see themselves as poor. Many white voters who voted for Trump voted AGAINST social welfare programs, AGAINST sharing the wealth, AGAINST a fair tax plan for their own income bracket. Why? They don’t see themselves as poor. They refuse to see themselves as unsuccessful, but rather they…

“I was hacked” is such a bullshit cop-out. It works, though! Kind of like the “Now I’m getting death threats” line that racists use after they get called out. Works every time, you go from offender to victim with just a few keystrokes. As for J.B., I don’t think anyone really cares about his porn choices. Delete the…

Right. I was already traveling in Argentina & Uruguay and had planned on going to Brazil, but I didn’t realize about the Visa until it was too late. I didn’t have a week, so I lost out. I live abroad in Latin America so I’m pretty well versed in how strict the US Visa requirements are for non-citizens. I just pulled a…
