When I played Little League (or Babe Ruth or Cal Ripken or whatever it was called), our team was abysmal. We lost in every way possible. It was miserable for everyone - players, coaches, parents, God. After piling up at least a dozen straight losses to begin the season, we finally snagged one meager victory on a…

In 2013 the Spurs has crafted what was essentially a perfect team but ran into Lebron James in the finals, who simply overpowered them with his greatness.

Lord, “unstoppable suck” vs “unmovable wall of shit”? Deadspin needs to stick to sports and not get involved in discussing the Republican primary.

Kobe’s performance in almost every game this year is reminiscent of Mark Madsen tanking the Wolves final game of 06 by chucking threes to the moon.

Came to pay respects.

I need this at my funeral. Also pole dancers. And a second coffin for my money and stuff, because I'm taking it all with me. Pharaoh style.

Holy hell, this gave me chills.

The first live match I ever saw was him stomping my beloved England into oblivion in the 1995 WC semifinal.

It’s a Manawa Wera Haka only performed at special events like funerals.

Doesn’t seem like the All Black’s haka, I presume it’s a funeral one?

Counterpoint: basketball is still boring and useless, but now with one less insufferable shitstain who once sexually assaulted a woman, but got out of the charge by threatening the woman until she refused to testify.

More amazingly, Vince Carter is still playing - averaging 15 minutes and 5 points a game, and hasn’t announced his retirement.

The players would just walk on the court and shake hands for 48 minutes while the coaches deflated as many basketballs as they could with crude knives. Unreal.…

When We First Met You Were Just a Kid, an autobiography, by Mark Sanchez.

Curry used to be a cover-your-eyes awful defender. The difference is that Steph gives enough of a crap about basketball to spend time working on it so he doesn’t hurt his team. That’s an MVP move.

I agree. Highly overrated and I’m not even a Rockets or Harden hater; I just plain don’t see the talent/effort from him.

You wouldn’t have done less from your living room. Still wondering how NBA players could pick this guy over Curry for MVP. Something going on there over my head.

For a UGA alum, though, that’s pretty good.

One of the worst things about this era of college sports is the sense of entitlement from fans. Every team believes they are entitled to be the best team every year, and so if their coach is merely consistently good then they must fire him and get somebody who can deliver that myth.

As a UGA alum, I feel like I just broke up with a girlfriend who was wholesome and amazing but couldn’t clinch a SEC title. I am not good at metaphors.
