A man who generally kept his mouth shut about the ongoings of the organization he played for and is a legend to the fandom and team and a likely Hall of Famer opens up about the inner workings of one of the most dysfunctional seasons the team has had in the last 10-20 years or so and it’s not notable enough for a…

Hm? If United had beaten Arsenal they would still be in 5th, a point behind City with no games in hand, and relying on City to fuck up against one of West Brom, Leicester, or Watford.

Not as much as the teams saddled with their contracts do, I’d wager.

That is not what data nerds say about sustained crunch time stats in basketball.

Dear Portland-

He just has to whip himself into shape and make sure his ego doesn’t get bruised if he doesn’t get a majority of the carries. Maybe branch out to accommodate different facets of the offense, you know, switch it up.

I’m sure he’ll be anxious to stick it to the teams that passed on him.

The best is when people you know talk about how “productive” they are and feel the need to be “productive” on their days off from work, because if they aren’t actively accomplishing something then they are a failure.
