Pretty interesting response coming from someone who came in expressing their boredom with an action movie that had maybe ten minutes worth of pause, almost none of which was at the beginning, and wasn’t willing to elaborate when their precious opinion was challenged. Derision, scorn, and insult as a defense mechanism?…

You were all over the place here, so let me respond in kind: Whether the procedure in place was solid or not, the league identified a maximum sanction for tampering with game balls and routinely fined teams for less than the max when they were caught doing things like heating balls on the sidelines. It was literally…

This was episode six of a ten episode season. To put that in perspective, Viserys won his golden crown in Season 1, Episode 6. The Stark family was still fully intact (albeit geographically divided) and Ilyn Payne was just the strong, silent type. In Season 2, Rob Stark was awkwardly flirting with a nurse he’d just…

Not. One. Game.

If this was so effing serious that they had to do everything short of locking up Gronk and releasing Aaron Hernandez and driving him to a gun store, they wouldn’t have let the first half of the AFC Championship Game be played with balls that weren’t in compliance. Or they would’ve taken the time to…

But didn’t the Wells Report say that there was no evidence that Belicheck or Kraft or anyone associated with the team other than Brady and the Ball Boys was involved? So why the fine and the draft picks? Because doofus said so...

So you hated him before you’d ever heard of him? He was “Boston Sports Guy” before he was “The Sports Guy” and he has found ways to work totally unnecessary references to the Celtics into his writing for at least as long as I can remember. He was a Boston sports homer long before ESPN gave him a platform.

That’s interesting because you’re getting worked up about a total stranger having an opinion on the Eagles... Doesn’t that make you a sad dork and a poser?

That’s probably why s/he described it as a euphemism.

HAHAHAHAHA! Fair enough!

Blasphemy. To what part of french fries, sauce, and cheese are you objecting?

Not kidding when I say this: I changed the channel after that whole rant. The parts you identified bothered me but not as much as the crazy notion that action involving two players falling to the ground out of bounds while wrestling for a held ball would get a video review... I lived through the 90s. I enjoyed…

None of those guys had teammates? Weird. The rosters for their teams would seem to suggest otherwise.

I’m curious which successful NBA players you can name that didn’t have any teammates... Snark fully intended.

I thought Catherine was pretty delightful too. Then they had that wedding special where she kept saying that she wanted the theme of her wedding to be "grown sexy." She said it about a million times.

Re: Sanderson Poe, I thought that was weird too, so I googled Sanderson Poe immediately (of course I did!). I get the impression that she thinks he was a bigger deal as a musician than he probably actually was and she thought everyone who heard her say it would be nodding knowingly with a sad look on their faces...

Why do I get the impression that both of you miss things. Lots of things. Always.

Why are you glad about that?

"[C]urious agnostics can't seem to get the answer to a simple question: Yeah, but is it actually any good?

I think that would be really fascinating. I've wondered how these issues have impacted Kobe and KG for years now. I know there's no way to control for it or measure it, but I also wonder how different Kobe's development must've been as compared to... I guess all the rest of the prep-to-pros guys because his dad…

Did someone edit out the names of the coaches you think the Raiders should consider?
