How could you include that last tweet but not his follow up?

Uh, you don’t need to be a GOP shill to think Warren was in the wrong for this nonsense.

ONCE AGAIN, A DNA TEST DOES NOT MAKE YOU NATIVE AMERICAN.

(The kind who can take a group of scrubs from the end of the bench and beat what we assume is a team led by KAT and Wiggins.)

This is MJ and Kobe stuff. Both those guys were assholes to teammates that didn’t work hard. KAT and Wiggins kind of suck as NBA players. 

The “you need me, I’m leaving” thing struck me as very odd and downright insane, until I remembered that recently I gave notice at my job, and the time between giving notice and actually leaving, watching the scramble of my boss try to figure out “How are we going to replace everything you do?” I couldn’t help but…

He’s quite good, but it is my understanding that his effort is millenial, if you know what I mean.

More like, “I’ll show them how asinine it was to pay those lazy ass ForkKnife fucks instead of a real baller such as myself.”

This reminds me of Kobe Bryant’s Kaufmanesque performances at Lakers’ practices during his retirement tour when he laid into the ghost of Carlos Boozer and the waning seconds of Linsanity during practice, and called them “soft as f***ing Charmin.” Man, I miss Kobe. In any case, Jimmy Butler is very quickly mastering…

Really curious who Woj’s source for that last tweet was.

I can’t believe anyone here would side with Thibs and his destroy-his-players philosophy combined with giving half-assers like KAT and Wiggins huge contracts. But some of y’all do.

Well put. While I appreciate this post, Drew’s from last year dealt with that issue much better. He explained that people - his peers - told him to act better and he dismissed them without really engaging with what they were telling him. He explained that he was looking at these comments from his own perspective, and…

This is probably the closest anyone has come to my thoughts on this topic as a whole. Both what you said, but also the way Deadspin people seem to downplay their past comments when comparing them to Barstool and others. They call people out (correctly most of the time) for awful shit, but then their own past rape…

I hear all of this, and i don’t disagree at all. I think i did a bad job of expressing my point, so let me try a slightly different way: within the context of barry’s very specific post i wanted HIM to acknowledge that not every behaved the way barry and drew et al did.

“Everything I did was normal at the time.”

Yeah.

I was once a troll of the highest order. I didn’t just go onto 4chan, I was mainly on /b/, the absolute cesspool of the internet. I have said some of the most vile, racist, misogynist shit. I look back on that with horror and embarrassment.

Leitch’s piece is just so silly to pretend he had no part in any of it. “The people writing for Barstool were the people writing in the comments section when I wrote about Holley Mangold”

The thing that baffles me is that a lot of these shitheads were like me when they first got on the internet: surprised at the lack of consequences. You know that when most people discovered this part of the internet (you know, discourse) they had a small voice in the back of their head saying “but isn’t that mean?…

Barry, here’s the positive: i’m a huge fan of your work here on the site, and have been since i started reading it regularly 7 or 8 years ago. the site has continue to progress, and to be more progressive, over that time.
