This is the nagging (sorry) problem I have with the drumbeat of “Believe Women”: yes, we need to get out of the habit of automatically disbelieving women who declare themselves to be the victim of rape, but at the same time we have a system of criminal justice that presumes innocence. I’d say that the presumption of…

Bautista’s Twitter rant continued: “These Indians are off the reservation; working with crooked umps but failing Deadspin ignores. SAD. We will fix. #MCGA”

1st. They just couldn’t bring themselves to make a car with windows.

I’ll say this about that inning and that game:

To be fair, 27 of the 68 minutes was Dusty Baker ambling to the mound for his numerous pitching changes at 1/16th speed.

People talk about the Warriors as the most stacked team ever. But would you choose them over Kareem, Magic, Worthy? Parish, McHale, Bird? Jordan, Pippen, insert anyone else here. Carmelo, Rose, Porzingas? (Ok, I was just fucking with you about the Knicks.)

Jordan Farmar.

Man I went into reading this thinking I knew exactly how it was going to go and I was wrong. The questions were good questions that got good answers. I don’t 100% support Cooks agenda but I understand and respect it. She doesn’t mind that fan service exists and doesn’t want it banned or to shun people who like it, she…

D’Anastasio: Really, that just seems to be fan service. What’s the issue? It’s like, “Here’s the meat of the anime, with a little pepper sprinkled on top.” It’s not the whole thing.

Nate Silver, ftw.

Javier Baez is the slickest player in the league. Sheffield’s bat with an outstanding glove in the middle infield. He can pretty much play every position aside from catcher or pitcher and even then he seems like he’d be game to try without hesitation. Unreal skill set (best tagger in the game!!!) and yet he was the…

The Federer/Nadal Wimbledon that battled sunlight and rain delays remains one of the best sporting events I’ve ever seen. The cajones on the shots they hit, down match point, were unreal.

Bill Barnwell did a data heavy piece on ESPN about this. Basically, Romo in 2014-his last healthy season-was measurably better. But not dramatically so. So in my mind the questions are:

That’s a good question, and I doubt if even KD knows. A lot of it depends on the 2017-2018 cap, which was initially projected to be $107M, but then pulled down to $102M (with league sources claiming that it’d be even lower).

That said, Durant probably leaves OKC in 2017 unless they win the championship given his…

But seriously, the DH sucks. Pitchers hitting should be cherished, whether they’re Cubs or Colon.

He’s not lying. The Chargers could easily be 5-0. They have literally blown every game with the exception of their singular victory. For the first 3 quarters of every game they’ve dominated. I thought last week’s giveaway was bad but this one takes the cake.

They aren’t going to win 74 games, and after last season’s, uhhh, let’s just call it a debacle
