New England should have seen it coming when Derek Anderson called out “Readyyyy.... down.... HUT HUT HUT HUT HUT HUT HUT HUT HUT HUT”

At this point if black women said “fuck all of yall” and boarded a spaceship and peaced out Id wish them nothing but the best, we dont deserve their presence on this planet

Not sure what the tone of this article is supposed to be. Are you giving him shit for still seeming mentally unhealthy? He sounds frustrated but generally ok. In light of his taking a mental health leave, the smarmy tone of this article seems cheap at best and hurtful at worst. 

It’s fine to criticize Smoltz as a broadcaster, but you can’t hold him to the same standards as an actual journalist or beat writer. Smoltz is a guy who just drops in once a week to talk about a baseball game, it’s not as if he’s a member of the permanent press.

Honestly, that’s an oversight on my part, but hell yeah, do it, I’ll write about Idaho.

Michelson made most of that money through insider training and spotting rich hedge fund assholes 10 strokes for 250,000 per round. Golf isn’t athletics. It’s a skill but it’s not athletic.

Phil Mickelson is a rude, arrogant, & obnoxious person w/a very serious gambling addiction. That he’s been caught cheating on camera during golf tourney, US Open no less, is not surprising. Happy b-day you unpleasant & scummy man. May you burn.

Man, I can’t wait for that CM Punk vs. Daniel Bryan vs. Shinsuke Nakamura vs. AJ Styles Fatal 4-Way for the WWE Championship at Wrestlemania 35 that will somehow inexplicably go on before the Lesnar vs. Reigns III main event.

Going on the 700 Club doesn’t fall under “relatively quietly”.
