That’s nothing. I watched Kobayashi wolf down like 18 lbs of cow brains one time. The dude who came in second barely ate half of what he did.

A god amongst men.

“without being slow or boring”

I don’t think JG Wentworth was purporting to offer a deal. They are feeding off of people who have never uttered the words “financial” and “plan” consecutively and probably aren’t aware of a service that can get you a bunch of cash up front for the accident which has you laying on the couch watching afternoon TV.

You didn’t. It’s laudable that you don’t know what JG Wentworth is because those commercials were very ubiquitous and persuasive.

But you already know their phone number, 877-cash-now. My personal favorite was “check into cash” but those JG Wentworth commercials sure give them a run for their money.

He has to be the worst pitchman ever. Seriously what about that guy makes you want their service.

Game of Thrones might be awesome, but it’s certainly not worth the countless hours you would have to dedicate to watching it. And you can be like Mike as long as you utilize self deprecating humor effectively. It’s a matter of going all the way with your philosophy, if no one else’s opinion matters yours doesn’t…

LeBron went to Cleveland.

Brain injury confirmed.

LOL. You are clearly missing the point of his statement. NOBODY in the NBA has a fucking chance of beating the Warriors unless they have significant injuries and it has been that way for the last 3 seasons. Who fucking cares if Toronto has a “good team” it hasn’t meant a god damn thing. Either way you look at it…

The Dodgers went to the WS two years in a row, so whatever argument you are trying to make isn’t working. Guess what? It really hard to win the World Series and only 1 team does it per year, despite the fact that there are at least 8-10 teams really trying to every year.

“small market teams where they’re never seen by the national audience again”

Yep. I have heard so many media people talk about how no one is going to get to see Machado now that he’s in SD, as if people were watching him when he was on the fucking Orioles. Baseball is a regional sport and people only care about THEIR TEAM for the most part. If their team isn’t in the playoffs people want games…

Did you have a brain aneurysm because you are so completely wrong about all of this, and you usually have pretty normal ideas.

It’s a fun name to say though.

Seriously, that comment is bad even for a deadspin commenter.

This is a moronic take.

I don’t seem to understand the comments either. There are great athletes in EVERY sport who feel nervous, hate the spotlight success brings and/or don’t like to talk to anyone except their family. It’s not a novel concept or particularly interesting and flies in the face of what we see. No shit being the best in the…

Check out the naivety of the commenter below you. My God.
