Brady doesn’t drink milk. He only drinks ocean water and coca leaf extract while shoving an avocado up his butt.

Only maybe a quarter of the regular season games matter right now anyway. If you lose 7 regular season games, your chances of making it into the playoffs are still very good. Who even wants to watch more meaningless regular season football? Did the 9-9 Texans all of a sudden become a better contender than the 8-8…

On the other hand, if you can bring your dog to the restaurant in Kansas City, why wouldn’t you be allowed to bring your pet hog? Hogs are larger, but they’re actually smarter and more well-behaved. Hog smell is slightly worse than dog smell, though. But I bet the health department would have something to say if a…

Mariota, Derrick Henry, Corey Davis, Taylor Lewan, .... Cortland Finnegan?

We used to be surprised or even angry when coaches got to fail upward forever. Apparently now we’re upset when it doesn’t happen.

Kansas City Chiefs: “home of the CHIEFS”

The Bidwill’s money came mostly from them being connected to Al Capone’s illegal gambling operations in Chicago. If not for Al Capone, the Chicago Cardinals probably would have folded in the ‘30s and would be a trivia question today.

Bennett on Thursday: “I need surgery and the Packers are forcing me to play”

Bennett literally 4 days later in a Pats uniform: 6 catches

Definitely unbiased fans: “The Packers wanted Bennett to get hurt by making him play”

I lived in Green Bay in 2000, and the town was very firmly divided on the Chmura Prom Party. I’m sure tons of people in Wisconsin still believe he’s totally innocent and did nothing wrong.

Not to also get all “Do you even lift, bro?”, but a 350 lb deadlift isn’t exactly “weight that heavy” for a guy in powerlifting. I was pulling 350 with a smaller frame than the guy in the video, and I was never in a class above “random dude who goes to the gym occasionally”. You probably couldn’t even enter a city powe…

I think you misunderstood the timeline. He’s saying that if the 49ers had beaten the Seahawks, they would have gone on to pummel the Broncos in the Super Bowl.

Disagree. Just to bring up a hypothetical situation, if Anderson Cooper goes on air and reports all the facts and says something like “Angela Merkel and Emmanuel Macron had lunch together in Munich”, he’s given all the facts. But “all the facts” in that situation mean nothing to 98% of the population. Providing the…

Don’t bother reading the threads underneath the Deadspin Twitter account when they post these. It’s totally saturated with Barstool fans who get upset that Deadspin ribs their favorite team.

The only reason I ever really read Grantland was for Zach Lowe. I actually kind of enjoyed The Book Of Basketball by Simmons, but when I think of Grantland, I basically mark that site as the end of “sometimes-entertaining sportswriter and big Boston homer” and the beginning of “Boston version of Skip Bayless”.

No one here cares whether or not you watch the NFL, but don’t say “I’m not watching because I’m sick of all the politics in both directions” when you really mean “I’m not watching because it’s not promoting MY politics”.

NFL viewership peaked in 2014 when we had 3 top QB talents of all time going at it in the same year. Viewership, in my personal estimation, is mostly driven by QB talent (I’d be happy for someone to prove me wrong). Manning is gone and Rodgers missed like 10 games last year. I wouldn’t be surprised if those two…

I don’t understand how Barstool has such a weird cult of followers willing to spend every day trawling every Internet comment section for anyone making fun of that site. It’s basically just a sports-oriented recycled version of TotalFratMove, but TFM never had this brand of incredibly vocal idiots just everywhere in…

I think their audience just seems larger than it is because they all will loudly brigade any Twitter thread that their masters request.

Elliott wasn’t falsely accused. The DA just didn’t think there was enough evidence to win a jury trial.

I meant most maligned by the fans. Awards are decided by sportswriters. And it’s hard to deny that someone who’s dropping 40 point games on a regular basis has talent. But his antics on the court make a lot of people watch him to hope he fails rather than hope he succeeds. The vast majority of non-Rockets fans…
