I honestly have no idea how “not giving in to a trade demand for a player that’s under contract for another 1.5 years to fit a conference competitor’s timeline is probably smart” is a purely pro-management position. 

It’s amazing how generous all of the commenters are . . . with other people’s money.

“So fucking what. A replacement caddy is still a caddy.”

I’m very interested to know how many people in this comment section would have actually cut a $130,000 dollar check to the caddy in this situation;  my guess is about 5-10%.

Well you’d be wrong

I know the general sentiment here is to be anti-captalist, anti-owner, anti-rich. 85% of the time I’m sympathetic. But this is a cold take. First he was a replacement caddy, Kuchar is under no obligation to pay him 10%. Then he offered 15k, a very very reasonable response. And even in the end, he got more than agreed…

The conceit that everyone was just in it for the love of sneakers until recently is unmitigated BS. Welcome to capitalism. Sorry the soccer moms have found your subculture.

Truth be told I hate the Boston fans I don’t know. I hate the idea of Boston fans. I’m racist against Boston. In actuality, I know a bunch of Patriot and Red Sox fans and they’re typically pretty cool people.

Dude, there’s 2700+ words before you even bring the prospect of advantage up! Some of us have jobs, you know.

I think the issues are simpler than you make out:

More fucking horseshit.

Phillips did not “enter the space between them” - he explicitly said on CBS News that he walked into the high school group to prevent them from harassing the poor innocent black protesters. The fact that those black protesters were using vile, homophobic, racist language is downplayed by you,…

You get what you pay for. You want strangers picking you up for less then what a taxi charges. You may end up in a ditch. You want to stay in a strangers home and pay less then cabin or hotel rental costs. You may get filmed. Regulation costs money, which increases fees and overall rates. Which in turn makes these two…

Wait wait wait wait wait. Did it get completely buried in this story that the opposing team stayed in the locker room for the national anthem? That makes this a completely different story, and it makes the journalistic context used here seem ridiculous. Look...like him or find him to be a gigantic orange buffoon, the…

Every breath you take

Also, I’m kind of inspired, I mean, how old is he? To meet and connect with someone who makes you feel like writing these wonderfully heartfelt clumsy corny things is so hard. The fact that he was still married aside, I’m happy for him?! And impressed with anyone who lets themselves be vulnerable—a hearty clap on…

Seriously. And if it were Chris Pine texting, “I want to smell you, I want to breathe you in. I want to hold you tight.… I want to kiss your lips…. I love you. I am in love with you.” We would all be swooning.

I’m with Bezos on this one. I think it’s sweet, it expresses deep passion and emotion and isn’t really about sex, it is about love. He’s offering to caress her and stare deeply into her eyes. I mean, he is married so that part is gross, but you’re not criticizing that. You are conflating romantic texts with sexts an…

Harden dropped 42 and MIL barely beat the Rockets w/o CP3 and Gordon and that’s a blueprint to stop the Rockets? Haha um ok...good luck with that

Drew is honestly the only reason I began frequenting this site. I started visiting Deadspin because of the FunBag. It would be nice if they would at least give some idea of when they think Drew might be back, or how serous this really is. Every time I see a staff member say something about Drew still being gone I…

Can we get an official update on Drew? You don’t have to get into specifics or anything, just a simple “he is doing better should be back soon” would be nice.
