They were also cheating because the running back is 33 years old and also Marshawn Lynch.

Sometimes when you try to cover something up you have to look incompetent to avoid looking guilty.

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…

shocking that someone employing an MLK quote on social media did not actually mean it

It wasn’t mentioned in the post, but this did happen. A small percentage of the overall offenders, I am sure, but they did do “something”.

When it comes to Nazis, the only remedy is something that the refs aren't equipped with. 

The NFL is sending the officials from the Lions/Packers game over to handle the situation, they're experts in officiating unruly mobs.

Yet, here you are reading articles about it and posting as well!

It’s an escape from reality on Sunday and Monday for several million people. Whether it’s good or not, I have no specific opinion. But that’s the answer. Some people read; some people do the crossword; some people dress up like ancient knights and fight with plastic swords while hopped up on Sudafed and ambien. It’s…

...that’s a strangely specific thing to always have said.

It’s like I’ve always said: if you eat a stranger’s ass in the parking lot before the game, your mouth will probably taste like ass afterwards.

I think I remember that. If I am right the NFL closed the loophole that allowed the dropkick in the next off season, which I expect them to do here. Because why let something fun and weird happen.

Pshaw, I saw Doug Flutie dropkick an extra point. ONLY CALL ME WHEN SUPER WEIRD SHIT HAPPENS.

Plus now he has the whole day to himself!

$5M to go away (assuming he gets paid out for his 2020 deal) AND he doesn’t have to continue with that dumpster fire of an organization?

Sounds like a pretty good way to start the week.

You join the mafia, you either end up in prison or a body bag. That’s the risk you take 

This is entirely unsurprising and deeply sad. I read this magazine all the time growing up. I had a shelf full of SI’s Hilarious Football Bloopers and a shitty, barely functional, football phone from pestering my parents to get a subscription. They had unsurpassed sports photography and some damn good writing. But the…

This happened to me a few times, then she reminded me of our wedding anniversary.
