Duke getting upset. Is it still March?

Not a reader, eh?

You need an immediate induction into the Deadspin hall of fame. Like Lou Gehrig getting Lou Gehrig’s disease.

You equated an OTC supplement to recover from injury with wanting athletes to be “drug fueled steroid machines,” but I’m the one who missed the point.

You’ve got an extraneous “ing business” in that sentence.

We actually bought an almost new ‘88 Accord hatchback (it had less than 10k on it) back in the day, it was bright red and a very nice car, but more the kind that earned your admiration, not your love.

I have a grammatically flawed sentence for you.

“...the dirty secret of Swiss Army knives is that they’re useless, apart from showing yours off to other kids (“Dude, check it out: TWEEZERS”). The knives are dull. The scissors could barely snip a hangnail. The corkscrew was famously unnecessary to tweens. And unless you’re fastidious about cleaning it

Saturn coupe is the most shame-inducing car to drive after the PT Cruiser convertible.

I don’t really think Rondo should be taking shots at Ray Allen over his decision but mainly just because I don’t think he should ever be taking shots.

So you filter your news to hear what you want?

I have a friend who lives in St. Louis. Her fanhoods should be easy to predict in two major sports. Out of nowhere, she’s also a huge Clippers fan (an OU alum, so the Griffin connection is probably a large part) — and an Arsenal backer.

Bless your heart.

Man, times really are different these days. When I was a kid, the one in green was Luigi.

I did 18 years in NC. Just flip the AC on, buddy.

Correct!

You should have just gone outside and yelled your Sixers tanking takes really loud, the heat would have melted the snow away in no time.

I want Rubio in Milwaukee. Last year the Wolves wanted Middleton in return. Glad that didn’t happen, but am hoping something can be worked this summer.

(As a Timberwolves fan) I kinda hate reading takes from national writers and commenters about Rubio. Maybe there’s some Stockholm syndrome as part of it, but when I hear the inevitable “Yeah but he can’t shoot and he should just be a backup PG and you’ll never win with him,” all I can say is: No! You don’t get it!

Euro-transfers are like Christmas gifts. You hear about them in the lead-up to their first game in the NBA and you think, “Is it a PS4? I think it is!” And then they play and you end up with socks and underwear under the tree.
