Kyrie Irving hit the game winning 3 so isn't he maybe the Luke in our story? Do you see now what I'm even getting at with all this?

He scored 30, shot 9-24 in game 7, 1-5 from 3, but he WAS hella clutch from FT, 7-8 before the final foul in the last seconds. K Irving scored 26 on 10-23, 4-4 from the line with the game winning 3. In game 5, they both had 40+ pts, first time in finals history and fifth time in playoff history. In the playoffs,

That's disappointing. You know, I didn't even know the Skip Bayless thing was a thing until a few days ago. I watch games after the fact, either those 40min streamlined edits or those 15min extended highlight clips. I don't have time to watch talking heads talking shit.

p.s. Is it because ESPN hasn't told you so yet?

Why?

"But you're aware of an invention called television, and on this invention they show shows… and some of these shows show sportsmen playing sportsball?"

If I'm meant to take sportsball seriously (which I do) then I'm allowed to say cults of personality dishearten me and offend me on a human level. I'm from Chicago and was around for Michael Jordan, and the Cult of Lebron makes MJ look like just another sportsman playing some sportsball.

But therein lies the problem, to approach this from a different angle: it wasn't just Lebron James, it was a group of a dozen other sportsmen alongside him playing sportsball (heh). In fact, one of these sportsmen is not only considered one of the best in the league already, he's being considered as having the

Oh WP you glorious trainwreck, I will keep watching you.

No but srsly Lost was bad and you should feel bad for enjoying it, BUT, I will give it up and say they actually did an amazing job in the ol-college-try way of writing themselves out of the impossible corner they wrote themselves into, so it's a shame it got to the point it was, you know, impossible in the first place.

IT WAS ALL A DREAM
I USED TO READ 'GREEN LANTERN/FLASH: FASTER FRIENDS PART ONE, SPANISH TRANSLATION' MAGAZINE

I'm a tried and true Lost hater but BSG is the only show whose stupidity offends me on a visceral level.

Even though it still feels like this isn't the "real" GoT and instead some alternate reality, gawdamn these last 2 episodes are good. Gawdamn.

It's like BSG's engraved placard moment.

Serious question why were they living in tents and shit?

See, the problem we have is we can't say "well in the books it was different" because, um, yeah…

True, but weren't we supposed to root against The Dothraki and relish in their downfall and subservience, whether at the hands of a dragon or wizard or white girl? I mean, they're fucking horrible.

Seven hells they are fucking up the faceless men story so bad.

It is The Walking Dead levels of ridiculousness and I'm surprised and disheartened by how much David Benioff and D. B. Weiss are, apparently, total fucking hacks.

Right, it was so bizarre, yet seemed so intentional at the same time. Like, it didn't seem like the case of bad writing simply telegraphing 'this character is the bad guy' with gratuitous mustache twirls, rather that it was the setup for something weird and extraordinary. Ehh, it might just be a case of the actor,
