This is actually a pretty common thing among very tall NBA players, and one that has been written about in WaPo and elsewhere. Durant doesn’t want to be a seven footer, and neither did Kevin Garnett and several others. Broadly, seems like the story is that they’re people who felt insecure about being taller than…

This is a good clip for “Joe Citizen would never get a first down in the NFL.” The CB and WR playing specials effortlessly close 15 yards before the punter goes 5, and he’s presumably a decent athlete.

That Colts play is a masterpiece. It invokes such feelings of despair and helplessness. It’s like watching a hopelessly overmatched kid half-heartedly try something against an opponent, knowing in advance that they’re doomed, and it is so ill-conceived and embarrassing that you can’t even praise them for the effort. Th…

Shouldn’t have had him run a sneak on 4th-and-1.

Wouldn’t that also involve laying the wall down on the group and having a “window” that this week’s guest star could pop their head through? Plus you need some fishing line to pull your cape, which I don’t see you including.

Batman and Robin actually filmed those scenes on flat ground with the camera rotated 90 degrees, so no, that won't work.

Commenting to yourself is just south of stalking.

Yea, and the part left out is when Thomas went on to say:

That’s not going back on what he said, though. “A hobbled Demaryius Thomas is the best use of the Patriots’ last roster spot right now” can be a true statement in August and then, two weeks later, no longer be true*.

Well he Belichick kind of admitted that, while he may not have intentionally lied, he did go back on what he told Thomas:

I mean, if you are cut at the end of the pre-season and then re-signed, the team has pretty much put a huge sign on your locker that says “END OF THE ROSTER RIGHT HERE!”

Thomas signed with New England in April after being cut by Houston in February. He looked great in preseason, and while the Patriots cut him days later, they did so with the intention of re-adding him to the roster. They signed him to a one-year deal two days after cutting him [in August], but once Antonio Brown…

I feel bad, but I gotta assume he is not that good a player, because there is no way the Pats would send a player they thought was good to the Jets.

He might be a skeleton twink, but he’s a bear compared to Marko Stunt, who looks like the star of a 2003 Disney Channel Original Movie about an aspiring teen BMX racer who finds a magic helmet that turns him into Travis Pastrana when he puts it on.

In today’s NFL, who’s to say getting the slotted guaranteed money for the No. 2 overall pick and retiring to your native Hawaii as early as possible isn’t “success”? Go home, Marcus, and don’t look back. You’ll be 26 years old, rich, and local hero.

If he’s anything like me, he doesn’t like being hugged because the feelings of emotional and physical proximity are simply overwhelming for him and it becomes a sort of sensory overload when there’s firm contact with another human being.

I mean, rough start for Strasburg though. (By the standards of this series) he got absolutely rocked. Dude didn’t even carry a no-hitter into the MIDDLE innings. 

I feel that the sentiment here was “This is the Dolphins we’re going to succeed on this play anyway”

The quote isn’t just misinterpreting what he’s saying, they’re misquoting him.
