He does, and #3 on Providence is Kris Dunn, who is one of the 3 or 4 best players in the country. I have to keep bringing this up because I'm a PC alum and I still cannot believe we have a top player, future lottery pick.

Excessive added time, Terry offsides. Shame Costa wasn't on the pitch to punch someone in the face in the box or it could have been the perfect Chelsea goal.

PC alum who still finds “12th-ranked Providence” very weird, and even weirder that we have a future lottery pick.

Skelos for FIFA President!

There's also some within our circles who are helping to set up a hiring network for those who lost their jobs, which is great to see.

Yep. I've worked in the progressive movement for almost 15 years, and there's a ton of misogyny and chauvinism that goes on, and not nearly enough done about it.

I mean.....they just lost to Bournemouth.

Are y’all at Gawker media having an internal competition over who can come up with the best description of Donald Trump at the beginning of each article you post about him? This is not a criticism, I am thoroughly enjoying it.

He somewhat made up for it with a great play on the line. But yeah, woof.

I'd also keep an eye on Kris Dunn. His stat line yesterday: 22 points, 10 Rebs, 9 assists, 7 steals, 1 turnover. As a Providence alum I'm still in disbelief that he's on our squad.

More and more convinced each day that you are the most talented sports journalist working right now. Thank you for this.

I think this match really showed how much Arsenal rely on Bellerin and Koscielny. Without them their defense looks awful (not that I think they would have won had they played)

Agreed. I'm thinking straight up from the pop culture side. Some combo of Greenwald, Rembert, Pappademas, Molly Lambert, Chris Ryan.

I think Greenwald has still been solid, but yeah there does seem to be a dip in quality lately

35-year old Yankees fan here who fell in love with the 80’s and early 90’s teams. The son of a man who spent his early adult years loving the late 60’s/early 70’s disaster of a franchise. Not all of us expect buying championships. And many of us even had the mentality of “We’re just happy to be here” this year!

I’m a Simmons fan who also loves Deadspin’s mocking of Simmons (you can do both!) that said, I’m confused about the mocking his opening with ads? I feel like this is the case with every non-corporate run (and successful) podcast I listen to, from Stuff You Missed In History Class to WTF. The Hendricks joke was lame as…

Agreed. And also one of those rare occasions where an old legendary Yankee’s performance was validated by the stat guys. Bill James has him ranked as the best catcher of all time based on Win Shares, and of the highest rated non-pitchers of all time in that category.

The reason why I find this fascinating is because Bermuda is without question the friendliest place I’ve ever visited.

Ok not quite pissing myself, but - One time I got drunk and passed out at a small party at a friends house. (Note: I do not remember anything beyond this point). I got up in the middle of the night and walked into a guest bedroom where someone I didn’t know was sleeping. I unzip my fly and start pissing on the floor.…

The build up and mystery has gone on for so long that my first thought when seeing these pics was “This doesn’t seem too bad!” But I get that it’s bad.
