the seriousness with which tony gonzalez delivers his little pep talk is god damn hilarious

I didn’t think we’d ever get a more glaring walk than Kendrick Perkins’ 9-step masterpiece, but given how brazenly Russ is strolling up the court, I do think he gets the edge. One point in Perk’s favor though, his travel wasn’t even called!

been trying to figure out what the bald sucker says right before he’s popped. it sounds like “you ain’t got no titty fuck!” but i’m guessing that’s not right.

I don’t eat Skittles one at a time, but I do eat them monochromatically, scarfing some reds and then wolfing some purples and whatnot. I used to do a little citrus burst with differing green/orange/yellow orange combinations, but then they changed the green from lime to apple and fucked all that up.

I am a casual college sports fan at best and so here is a list of men i get confused with one another, based on a combination of name similarity and colors of the teams they have been in charge of

the ringer has developed this bizarre affinity for sports and cultural fanfic, and it is extremely bizarre. like i understand it as a fun little digression here or there, but these fake oral histories and whimsical digressions into the counterfactual appear built into the model. draper rightly noted as much in his…

Worth noting that Brody also turned in a butt review of Whiplash, which owns.

A little off topic because it is IN the movie, not the trailer, but James Franco’s spin on Britney Spears is my indisputable sheeitt.

The immortal Steve Breaston used to do this when hed find the end zone and it never failed to get a chuckle out of me.

How are Tom and Samer dealing with this dog-murdering polar bear situation?

The Ringer puts out enough content that I’ve been able to enjoy a good bit of it, but thank you for mentioning its extremely odd proclivity for high-concept “satire” pieces. Like, what the hell is this?

i saw some trouser stain lurking in simmons’s mentions say that ‘any given wednesday blew a 3-1 lead’ and it just ruined the whole stupid meme for me.

Does the dearth of starting pitching make this the best time for the Sox to move Sale and/or Quintana? Or is the market so tilted that they could never hope to get equal value and should therefore wait for the market to take shape in July?

Talde is the absolute shit. Good location scouting, gang.

The sensitive lonely protagonist of The Sandlot is a Cubs fan; of course he is.

whenever my sox fan friends start popping off about the cubs this is always the first thing that leaps to mind.

Your second question is very directly answered in episode 2, in a scene between Bernard and Theresa in the bedroom, when Bernard says “When they talk to each other, it’s a way of practicing.”

**grumbles about the stupid designated hitter while still acknowledging that miller is awesome and francona is awesome for using him this way**

Really not trying to be pedantic here because Lindsey is great. but this piece has some really obvious errors. Panik’s walk-off in Game 3 was a double, not a sac fly, and Zobrist’s double last night scored one run, not two. Someone already noted that it wasn’t a sweep but it looks like that’s been fixed.

he’s an undecided voter in missouri. very obviously bad.
