I don’t see the problem. The purpose of government and society is to protect the individual interests of the people within that society. Else why be a member of it? Unless you’re religious there is no self-interest in protecting the rights of someone else except that by protecting those rights, you vicariously protect…

What's wrong with that?

I think it’s very convenient for all of us to swim in the same liberal fishbowl and say “well we all occupy the same water” but neglect the reality there’s an entire ocean of people who aren’t in it. Our goal should be to expand the fishbowl, not judge the reasons that people are still in the ocean. Assuming that…

Good grief. Have we reached a point where it isn’t OK to say anything? Damned if you do and damned if you don’t.

I went to a college that specializes in churning out public school teachers. Most of those that graduate are imbeciles.

Don’t know you and I hate THE but fuuuuck you. He dismissed a player for choking out his girlfriend and you say that shit? With everything going on in Baylor.. Tennessee.. And you crucify him for doing the right thing? Fuck you man.

Funny that a family of websites that subtly promotes class warfare (always taking labor’s side, bashing the rich, etc.) and echoing Marxist talking points (systemic/oppressive/partiarchal/corporatist/racist/late-capitalist inequality explains everything!) would giggle at the idea of Communist influences in American…

Germany had the best military in WWII and totally deserved to win.

Actually, they’ve ruined plenty of white players too. Statistics show that more white players have busted out of Cleveland. All Careers Matter

Honest question; How can a man reach adulthood without even ACCIDENTALLY learing about sports? Were you grown in some lab or raised by feral dogs?

You nailed it. Schefter isn’t saying those things on his Twitter feed aren’t political. It’s clear what Schefter is talking about when he references Katz filling out brackets with Obama. He’s talking about affiliating with a party in my opinion, which he accurately said he hasn’t done on his Twitter feed.

Going off this, this piece missed a bit of what I think Schefter was saying. It’s okay—even desirable—to be political if you’re a sports opinion person. Bo Jones or Jemele Hill are being paid to share their opinion on sports, rather than do any reporting. As Barry rightfully points out, sports are necessarily…

I hate you for making me defend Schefter, but this article is a joke. There is nothing political about his tweets. Zero. “Mets sign Jose Reyes.” is a sports story, and its a gigantic fucking reach to say it (and all your other examples) are political.

Too afraid to rank Swimming, huh?

You know who looks great naked? Any woman that’s chosen to be naked in the same room as me.

The block is one of those plays that gets better every time I watch it.

If you have enough, you can own Deadspin.

GS went 73-9 in the regular season and 15-10 in the playoffs. Pretty remarkable.

I understand not wanting to admit LeBron is in Jordans league but holy fuck, are you saying Jordans Bulls beat 6 teams AS GOOD as the team that just won 73 games as defending champions? Led by a two time MVP and two other arguable top 10 NBA players coupled with one of the most exceptionable benches in history? I like…
