In Khalil Mack's defense, he has literally never been there before.

First off, this is a rip off even for PS users. $20 for three (?!) story missions, a couple of insubstantial PvP modes, some guns, and the right to grind two more levels? Seriously? Is the new PvE content even going to be deep enough to merit the grind? Because I for one have little interest in doing that for its own…

Wait. Is She-Gambit a thing? Fuck you. You made that up. You drew that in study hall in sixth grade and hope Kevin Feige is gonna see it and hire you. I know how this shit works. THEY NEVER CALL, MAN. LET IT GO.

Awesome. This means that the Sabres should be infected already and sick shortly. Embrace the tank!

I guess this is true statistically, but anecdotally I would disagree. I know a lot of American black men who are very much into hockey. But that may be a function of where I live, Buffalo, which is kind of like more - racist Canada.

The league office will comment that they didn't see the video, and CBS is lying if they say otherwise, and Fireman Ed didn't understand how bad the finger was until TMZ sent him the video.

-1 for reminding me that After the Fire was a thing.

That wasn't a "mistake." That was a felony that went away because he has money and lawyers. There is a difference.

Actually, in this case, maybe not. I don't know how things work down there, but in New York, CPS complaints are actually covered by some very, very heavy duty privacy laws. They're not like criminal complaints. Like, I have colleagues who are do professional integrity investigations on child protective workers, and…

Sigh. I was seriously asked before this aired if I thought it was a good idea. My opinion was apparently not considered.

Terry Pegula will be mailing the check to Marty Mornhinweg tomorrow morning.

Aw, you checked out right before my favorite LOL Jets moment in recent history: the totally pointless time out negating the game tying score. It was, to put it mildly, amazing.

Did the exact same thing as you, more or less, but through a different retailer. Amazon was showing the Madden bundle as sold out, which sucked. But Walmart is running pretty much the exact same deal until the end of today (9/13). If you do it at an actual store, they give you a $60 gift card instead of the game,…

You've reached the limits of serving the public good, Samer. What can you possibly accomplish now other than violating the privacy of theoretically innocent rich people?

This is an atrocious violation of the individual privacy rights of the involved parties, but I would like to take this moment to laugh at Matt Paulett up there, whose Tweet I read thusly:

We are totally okay with a dork billionaire, as long as it's Terry Pegula.

In tepid defense of the insecure fanbase thing, this town has been fucked harder by professional sports results than pretty much anybody else in the past 25 years. Add that to the inferiority complex that comes from being thought of as "Detroit, but with more snow," and you can sort of understand why we're touchy.

Clearly somebody has never been to Amherst or Cheektowaga. There is pleeeeeeeeeenty of racism there.

But, yeah, I've been to plenty of places where it's a lot worse. So, we're kind of awful, but other people are defnitely MORE awful, so that makes us... okay? I guess?

To be fair, if they murdered Matt Lindstrom if his ERA exceeded a certain point, the rest of the bullpen would probably waive their trade restrictions pretty quickly.

There's definitely a difference in upstate NY, but it's almost entirely in housing costs. I work in government, and I've turned down promotions to positions downstate because the raise and location differential still didn't add up to a net increase in pay if I wanted to live in anything better than a poorly maintained…
