In the Great Venn Diagram of Humanity, there's a lot of misleading overlap between Guys Who Are Lazy Fucking Bums, and Guys Who Pretend To Like Sonic Youth.

Well, right. I'm not sure what to do with the term "hipster," either, but it does seem as though there's a sort of archetypal NBA fan that is very different from those for the other major sports. I think it has to do with the fact that the NBA is accessible without requiring people to buy into a whole load of

I'm not sure we're going to hit on a common definition of "hipster," but I will say that I think pro basketball is more rewarding of intellect in its fans than other major sports. The whole game can be seen by casual fans at all times, unlike the NFL, which means that anybody who wants to pay attention can understand

Oh, shoot, they edited that part out: turns out, he was actually fucking his dad.

Does it bother you that "Julian Dalrymple - blowjob" will never surpass "Houston Astros - competing" on the all-time list of the greatest baseball-stadium pretenses?

Roy Cohn!

He's not bad at business? That's the one thing he is bad at! He's famously bad at business! He's blown more money than many third-world nations.

Floyd was never ducking Pacquiao. This was always about egos, and, I think, about Floyd's suspicion that Pacquiao is a fucking cheater (witness his erosion after he agreed to Olympic-style drug testing, and also his suspicious disappearing act before the Margarito bout). It's hard to accept that Floyd's ego could be

Yes, Mayweather's people should go ahead and make the fight happen now. But it's silly to suggest that Mayweather was ducking "a guy that's got a good shot at ending [his unbeaten record]." I'd offer as a counter to this the immediate rematch he granted Jose Luis Castillo after their first fight, so eager was Floyd

I think LBJ would just eat a ton of chili con carne.

Also, our Deadspin thread didn't give them knives to use. So I'm not sure George W. Bush's strong throwing arm would help him much there, unless he gets his hands on one of Chester Arthur's limbs after Lyndon Johnson tears them off.

Lincoln had hidden reserves of indomitability (which is a word as of... now). I think he'd be terrifying in this sort of thing. Dubya is a fucking silver-spoon-fed momma's boy: cardio doesn't mean nearly as much as the content of a combatant's character, and he possessed absolutely none of that whatsoever.

It really was a ton of fun.

Only in terms of body hair.

Huh. Yeah, I don't think that's really my bag. I'm more of a 140-characters-or-less kind of guy.

Addressed this on Twitter already, but:

Acting on similar reports, Fort Wayne police have obtained arrest warrants for literally everyone who has ever DVRed Toddlers & Tiaras.

This is fucking incredible. +1

This is wonderful stuff.

I don't see what's so outlandish about this. Plenty of ESPN personalities have unconventional bathroom habits. For example, Skip Bayless takes a shit every time he opens his mouth.
