Ha.  Now I am even more embarrassed because that was a long time ago.

I consider myself a liberal, a progressive, an ally . . . all the things that privileged white guys tell themselves to justify the comparatively easy road that has been laid out for us from the get-go. But as I was reading this my first thought was, “why does it matter? He assaulted this woman; why get pedantic about…

This might be my favorite thing ever. Deadspin should buy this website and insert in the top navigation of the site. I always want to know how much money Jon Gruden has made in the time it takes me to make some inane observation about the Mets, or craft the perfect dick-and-balls one-liner. Always.

Strongly agree. The Mets have always, always deferred to the veteran in these kinds of scenarios - every Jose Reyes AB last year was an insult to the fans - but I wonder if the BVW/Callaway era might finally be different. Todd Frazier is a nice guy, but he is not an MLB-caliber hitter right now. McNeil deserves a…

This was a popular take in NY last week - LOLMets, so cheap, etc., etc. - but I think it is the wrong one. For one thing, I have not heard or read anywhere that the Mariners were willing to do this deal if it did not net them some prospects in return. That the Mets add a for-now upgrade at 2B (yes he will suck in a…

So this video they’ll watch?

Draymond Green would like a word with your dick-and-balls, Tom.  

We are the money-makers. And we are the branders of brands.

Jaguars Junction: Bortles injunction is unction for Jags’ dysfunction

I went to bed and I hate myself. (And I made my seven year-old go to bed and now he hates me, too).

As a Giants fan, Odell doing something predictable and corny is manna from heaven. Boring Odell is the best WR we’ve ever had; crazy, net-kicking Odell is pain in the ass.

Wait, are you saying you’re not a platypus? After all these years, I just . . . I mean, wow. I can’t be the only one who’s a little surprised, right?

Sounds like the guy the Wizards hired to clean house has a much more realistic view of Dwight Howard than the guy the Wizards hired to clean house.  

Somers is an institution. He is incredibly knowledgeable about sports, so uniquely dopey as to be endearing in spite of himself, and profoundly decent to every single person who calls the radio station. He is not the Ambien Francesa, he is the anti-Francesa.

Meh. Golden State was the beneficiary of Durant’s dithering and dissembling during his final year in OKC. It’s hard to feel too badly when he visits the exact same treatment on them. “The girl who cheats with you,” etc.

this guy : Kinja :: Draymond Green : NBA

We need a federal law banning these sorts of subsidies. Without a federal law, there will always be an incentive for one desperate city or state to start the bidding wars. By banning this insulting robbery of the public till outright, business will continue building, and investing, and locating, and relocating.
