as long as he’s chill about it, it’s cool

Most cats can’t catch a lizard because they fall for the fake tail trick.

Yeah I am with you here. I think people here are ignoring that Hillary is just not as good of a speaker as say, Michelle Obama. Michelle killed it.

As I sat down and listened to Hillary last night, I was cringing a bit. I have no problem listening to Hillary speak, but I was listening to her through swing voter’s…

Peace through accusing others of hating white people. Nice plan.

When Kobe’s charges came out, my housemates and good friends were a lesbian couple who were HUGE basketball fans. We had watched the previous several seasons together (especially the playoffs).

When I heard, I told them, “You are NEVER going to guess who was just accused of rape.” I was totally shocked that Kobe had…

Can’t wait for next posts in this series: “you should have your shoes tied when jogging” and “you should wear a seatbelt while driving.”

I am absolutely floored that there is a Czech football league with a team that has 15 titles piled up. Show of hands who else knew this?

Yeah Carmelo is gonna be set regardless. Many of these female players have nothing else to fall back on. I guess you get a pretty severe backlash if you speak out, male or female, but the female players are risking the backlash and the paycheck.

Maybe because the evidence is clearly observable to laypersons.

Yes! Let’s imprison some intelligent mammals to amuse you while you wait for your atmosphere destroying plane! Great idea!

Yeah Meyers been more on point, politically, than I ever would’ve guessed he’d be. And he’s funny enough for his time slot, but still nowhere near his predecessors, Conan and Dave (or even Jimmy so far).

This is a nice return to form. Colbert is great but his CBS show has generally been below his average. But you could argue that Colbert changed history with his White House Correspondents Club desecration of W. Before that, the mainstream media was utterly sycophantic towards W, and after that they began turning…

If find the fact that, even after all these years, you are (afaik) the only professional athlete who comments under his own name on here and just drops by on a regular basis to randomly comment (as competently as the semi-pro humorists who abound here) about the same kind of petty crap that I complain about in my…

You have the opinion that all advantages in sports are equal and deserve protection. You can’t see how far out of balance this perversion of the intent of free throws pushes the game. Not really worth discussing with you further.

Guess what, you can still run the ball when there are 9 in the box. Hack-a leaves NO…

Leagues fix rules all the time when they are used counter to the way they were intended. Free throws were designed as a way to reduce overly aggressive play. They were never intended to be a litmus test of who can play in the league. The fact that the rule change would only affect a few players is an argument FOR the…

It doesn’t happen very often because there aren’t very many loopholes this glaring in sports. About the next closest rule, in terms of causing imbalance to competition, are soccer’s red cards and penalty kicks. That’s why soccer is on the leading edge of frivolous diving and fake injuries, because tricking the ref has…

They’ll be panned after this filters through to the mainstream media. And don’t forget Art Briles. That schlub ruined their reputation for decades to come.

NCAA should also step in. This is much bigger than infractions violating amateur status. Have a backbone about something other than forced exploitation of athletes.

A pitcher like that would never sniff a high school roster! The first thing opposing hitters test a pitcher on is whether he can consistently hit the strike zone.

The NBA changes rules all the time. It’s not the big deal you are making it out to be. Those players will still have to shoot plenty of free throws.

The pitcher you described is completely useless and would never make a team.

Your problem is, you’re not satisfied that failing to convert 3 point plays occasionally or airball twice when they are fouled while shooting is enough punishment for these bad free throw shooters. You think the opposition should be able to…
