I’m sure he had games like this, just because of the volume of shots he took and having the ball in his hands late in the game, but the main argument is that Jordan won six titles in seven seasons (*or six full seasons) and was one of the greatest defenders ever. Could he play against today’s athletes? Could LeBron…

Oh, Jesus, that’s some terrific knuckle you just served up.

As Dean Spanos once said, “You can’t spell plan without D-E-A-N, or at least some of those.”

No, he believed there was no god. As a scientist, absent the definitive proof — which is nigh on impossible here — he would not say he knew there was no god. It’s beyond the Scientific Method, it can’t be tested and replicated, so he would not say he knew that to a certainty. 

Creationism is not the belief that we can create life. It’s the belief that, absent the scientific mechanisms by which we can create life, life is (or was) nevertheless created.

If tonight is any indication, Boston will be able to match up with just about any team defensively and create mismatches on offense against just about any team. That’s a versatile fucking roster. They can go heavy on the defense just by swapping Kyrie for Smart and Baynes for Hayward. Horford and Brown specifically…

I mean, he admitted to obstruction, so that’s a little more than “possible.” It was actually his plea to snitch on other guys, who were later acquitted. Good ol’ Ray, always so accountable. What a stand-up guy, to turn on his friends and dispose of his suit. He also paid settlements to families of his victims, plural,…

The focus on player safety can be a little maddening, because the rules are so strange and inconsistent. But it’s one thing for helmet to helmet to happen — it’s the speed of the game and all that — and another when Burfict does what he does, and I guess it’s mostly to Pittsburgh. It’s almost extralegal. He’s not…

But you did erect a statue to a murderer, so...

+1 whinny 

This is why you should never trust someone who looks like a young Grace Slick. 

None of those things make him that special. Trae Young did amazing things in college. Zach Lavine is incredibly athletic. Great head for the game? I dunno...Washington went 9-22 that year, the second-worst team in a bad conference, so it’s a little hard to evaluate his ceiling based on 20-something games. Or, if you…

No offense, but what in the world is that based on?

It’s as obvious as the rest of the effort. 

It’s true that nobody is actually objective — news, itself, cannot be wholly objective — but that’s markedly different from crossing streams between newsrooms and op-ed, which is exactly why one is news and one is opinion.

“This is why I don’t watch tennis.”

Unlike the team’s history, this video of Sacramento Kings basketball is all prestige.

I think he was in some boxing movies about 40 years ago.

And this is his current Twitter profile photo:

“I win!”
