Whitlock, making Grantland the new Black Grantland.

Who is PFTCommenter?

Trust Money can read the writing on the wall.

Does the NFLPA talk to these young men before the draft? Leaving aside that no one in “real life” bro hugs the head of their company when they get a job, Goodell is the face of the ownership, which whipsawed the union (i.e., players) in the last CBA. Why not just shake his hand (very firmly), accept the…

Guess sneakers are not the only thing Sapp blows his money on.

Adam might want to text instead of call. Guy in my section was saying something about her having something in her mouth. He seemed to know a lot of intimate details about her life.

Only in the context of the NCAA would justice-minded people look at him—a millionaire management-class white dude who asks for a year of underpaid labor, rather than four, from his black teenage workers—and see a beacon of fairness.

For better or worse, sports rarely reward loyalty. On pretty much every level, from youth sports to Belichick's Patriot Way, it's who is the best player now. Cal may be a millionaire, but that's because he's successful at what he does (recruit players who produce wins and championships.). However, he could be a high…

Was watching NBA TV's replay of Jordan's Double-Nickel this weekend and was surprised that I forgot the Bulls' three-headed center (which gave Jackson 18 fouls, as he was reported saying) was Will Purdue-Luc Longley-Bill Wennington (against which Ewing went for 31).

Albert,

Damn straight. Going to Fenway sucks now.

Kevin Love had the permanent "Mike Myers standing next to an unraveling Kanye" face going.

The dodgeball is cool, but, at a certain age (mid-30s) you risk getting wrecked. SkyZone's hidden gem is the dunk rims, which are reminiscent of Slamball:

The article to which Kevin links shows a correlation between higher attendance and playing at hockey arenas, which begs the question of why they're not playing at the XL Center, home to the Hartford Wolfpack (and in greater proximity to Greater New Haven, Fairfield and Litchfield Counties). Alternatively there's…

Thanks for responding. Looks like "New England" might be more on the Vancouver end of the spectrum, for now. Thought it was a pretty enjoyable night out, especially at $40 for tickets, hot dogs, popcorn and soda for two. Even with youth lacrosse growing in popularity around the area, problem might be that Uncasville…

Kevin,

Uh-hum...

Did anyone capture Francesa's response today. A caller brought up Kay's comments around 1:45. After feigning ignorance of what was said, Francesa referred to Kay (or perhaps it was to his competitors generally) as petty and jealous, said he couldn't see him in his rear view mirror, and then scoreboarded him pretty…

Why the claim that Suggs was going for his knees? If anything (and not that it makes it better — maybe worse), looks like he was trying to fracture the pelvic bone. That aside, Suggs has always played hard going back to his days at ASU. Burfict, however, was always a head case, drawing stupid penalties for the Sun…

Jordan needs to bring Sam Cassell in as a special assistant coach to teach Kemba how to properly show off his giant pair.
