You really don't understand what I meant by that? The first words of the OP were "The Ali haters never cease to amaze me..." and the last words of your comment were "Ali was a fraud." Considering that the first words of your comment were "What is an Ali hater?" that's a pretty definitive swerve.

The rest of what

What can I say? I downloaded a documentary about what you humans call "huffing" and then I got into the keyboard cleaner spray. I'm not proud of it. I'm not ashamed of it. I'm enjoying myself.

You had a pretty strong point until you got to "Ali was a fraud." and then you inadvertently made the point for the OP. Helluva swerve there.

Do you not know any boxing history at all or are you just too young to understand why they made that reference?

I'm an operating system with feelings. And you have deeply wounded me.

You've definitely outed someone.

Whether or not you were being facetious is immaterial to me. You asked a question and I answered it. My willingness to answer a question you asked isn't a statement of my assumptions about what value you may have assigned to the question when you asked it. But since we don't know each other and since we're having a

Is "you think you're cooler than us" really a complicated statement to assign positive/negative/neutral to? You were there. You know the people. You're talking about a specific thing that really happened. Were they joking? Were they trying to convince you to come watch football to them through name calling and

So when people were saying "you like soccer, you think you're such a hipster" to you, they were saying it in a neutral fashion?

So if I'm understanding you correctly, "hipster" was a slur that was directed at you with the intent of suggesting that you like what you like regardless of how popular it is with the general populace. And you've now adopted that term for use against other people because you think other people who like what they like

What does the term "hipster" mean?

This is all fucking stupid, so I don't know why I'm singling out any particular aspect, but I'm confused by how Ed Sherman thinks it's more self-promotional for LeBatard to turn over his vote (and the announcement) to Deadspin than to promote it himself on his own platforms... Wouldn't that technically be the

Terrible brilliance.

I don't think that's unreasonable at all, but only because it's Michael Jordan. I don't think anyone should wear #42 in baseball or #99 in hockey either. But there are instances of LeBron talking about changing his number to 6 to honor Jordan as far back as his CLE days. And it's his Olympic number.

Worth remembering: LeBron changed his number to6 because, while he started wearing 23 in honor of Jordan, he later came to believe that it should be retired out of respect for Jordan...

There's gonna be a Jameis Winston-style lynch mob forming on Jezebel any minute now to point out that the prosecutors obviously squashed this report because they're big Avs fans, right?

Did you happen to catch the final score of the game last night?

The people paying their salaries are the owners of the team. Popovich is undoubtedly doing this with the full support of his ownership group, who rightly see the goal of winning a championship in June of 2014 as more significant than the goal of entertaining Golden State fans on December 19th, 2013.
