Now you're doubling down with "he's spent most of his life living outside Seattle" eh?

It sounds like they really blew his hair back with this story...

I think you're definitely missing the joke. And I don't think this is trolling.

You have no idea what you're talking about and you won't just admit that. You thought something was true. You stated that thing on the Internet as though it was fact. You were wrong. You're leaning into it. It's beautiful.

You and I have very different recollections of that era and, apparently, a very different understanding of how basketball is played. My understanding is that most offenses feature an element called "dribble penetration" where the player with the ball will drive into the lane and attract the attention of multiple…

I love how Kobe heel poses while Michael is all business.

You listed a bunch of (mediocre-to-terrible) things that are not like the others. Lady Gaga really sounds like she's not enjoying doing what she's doing now? How would you know? Because her newest song doesn't sound like two Madonna songs jammed together?

50 Cent: Terrible now. Terrible then. But his problem…

If he'd hit it, you would've just posted the video and called it a golazo...

Lynch mob... Interesting turn of phrase, there...

Two votes for freakin'.

I totally voted for Obama. Twice.

Read what I wrote again. I wasn't accusing amcnair of being pedantic. I was noting that my response might seem pedantic but wasn't intended to be...

Do you work for the Harlem Globetrotters' PR team or something?

Perhaps that's the case, but plenty of reasonable observers are wrong about things on a regular basis.

Again, let's look at what you identified: "No part of the flag...". How are you identifying parts of the flag? There are red stripes. There are white stripes. There is a blue field. There are white stars. Are…

I get your point, but I don't think this is in violation of the code. This uniform uses the "stars and stripes" motif. It is not, in and of itself, a flag. The uniforms are not made from flags. They do not contain the flag in its entirety. I recognize that is a pedantic response, but in this case, I think that's…

Funny quote coming from Pete Rose, but "picked" and "vice" in the same sentence show a pretty poor understanding of vice, no?

The same rules apply regardless of whether it's fast food, casual dining, or... drumroll, please, a movie theater... They're selling you a cup, ice, water, and a squirt of colorful flavored goo. If you're paying $2, $3, or $6 for a non-alcoholic beverage, they made their money back on your second or third sip. The…

I hate the Yankees but that was a flawless victory of a response!

This must be your introduction to this story.

I'm not sure I even agree with the idea of him being "universally adored," though I'm from North Carolina and grew up in Michigan surrounded by Pistons fans. So I have a strong confirmation bias on this point that I'll readily admit. I don't think social media is causing a sweeping change in how people view…
