What the hell is “flying disc”? Is that Ultimate Frisbee? If so, that would be a phenomenal addition. (Cue bro-y/trustsfarian jokes in 3... 2...)

A great read. Thanks.

Just like the Bulls in ‘93 when they were losing until Pax’s trey. You went from “I hope they tie it up” to “holy shit we just won!”

I was the syncophantic little brother — I didn't want to do anything uncool like take a pic. And he wasn't the big deal he is now, although it started pretty early.

Semi-interesting note about John Cusack: He used to get high in my house with my brother when I was in high school.

Except for when they don’t.

You posted a great quote, and the part you italicized is exactly the right part to emphasize. But there was another part of this quote that got excised, unfortunately:

Gotta say, pretty disappointed that Szczur did the same EXACT same thing he did a few innings before, in the same circumstance: weak pop-up to right.

Well said.

I think you get my point.

Pierce’s single word burn cut like a... hmmm, what’s a good analogy here...

that's remarkably similar to my experience with your wife just last week.

Actually, I can’t tell what it means from the context, either. “Pre-conceived narrative”? “Typical perspective”? Unless you’re referring to the killer Uncle Tupelo album, “Anodyne” shouldn’t see these pages.

I have no idea what that word means, and I’m guessing most Deadspin readers don’t, either. I’m not looking to get in a political pissing match in Kinja, so I don’t know what your politics are. But to me, using a word like that reeks of trying to ensmartenify your point. We’re a simple folk.

You actually burst your credibility by using the word “anodynity.”

Sorry, but Blackhawks fans are not bandwagon jumpers. I’ve been going to games since the 80s and the only time the Stadium was ever not packed was when Bob Pulford had completely decimated his team and had a guy named Alpo behind the bench.

Link?

Thanks for that caveat — of course only “bleeding-heart libs” can have a strong opinion about Mayweather.

Seriously, that freaks me out.

Ok, that Asian hornet thing is absolutely terrifying. I read this account by a guy who was stung by one and it makes me want to move to Mars. Money sentence: “The pain lasted for hours.”
