I’m going to be very upset if someone hasn’t made a Guile’s Theme Goes With Everything video for the Sanchez home run by the end of the day.

Oh man, I’m surprised you guys are so down on it! I thought it was great - because it builds on everything that has led up to it it’s able to have a huge number of “oh shit!” moments and fist-pumping reveals that felt earned to me.

I feel like it depends on where you’re eating sushi from. I’m aware of most but not all of these techniques, but when I order from the sushi place near my apartment on a Friday night after I’ve been at happy hour for several hours you better believe I’m putting the wasabi in the soy sauce and halfway submerging the…

When Thor shows up in Wakanda to turn the tide of combat I shouted “Oh shit!” at the screen. I had such a huge, awe-struck grin on my face for so much of the movie.

Dave Gettleman is a perfect fit for “Mr. Mara” given his deep commitment to insane ideas about Tradition and Doing Things the Right Way because the Giants are a Classy Organization.

Gotcha, thanks for the clarification.

But then how do you deal with trans women? Not all trans people take hormones.

On the one hand it’s always a bummer when someone who is super talented has their career derailed by injuries. On the other hand though Matt Harvey has always seemed like an asshole so I’m not too broken up about it.

I feel like it really depends on the bar and the neighborhood. Like if I go out in the East Village I go in with the expectation that most of those bars are noisy as hell and so if I want a quiet bar for good conversation I have to either go hunting for one or go out in a different neighborhood.

What’s your favorite objectively wrong take you had as a kid that you’ve irrationally held into adulthood? Mine is that Mike Richter was a better goalie than Martin Brodeur.

Lauren, why did you use your full name to show how bias you are as a journalist? Gotta use a nickname in the byline if you want to show how bias you are.

My college friends who joined frats were generally insecure and/or had a hard time making new friends, and viewed their frat as a ready made source of people who basically had to be friends with them. Of course, the sole time I attended a frat party and a few of the guys tried to convince me to pledge their pitch was…

Putting aside the regular inconsistency of NHL refs (goalie interference, anyone?), it certainly seems like they call fewer penalties in the post-season, and I’d be really interested in seeing a site like 538 do a statistical analysis to see if that hunch is correct. It just seems like you see a lot more headhunting…

Give San Juan an MLB team. That city is chill as hell and fucking rules.

Holy Crap, recycling the same headline format a bit too often, eh?

I used to like him when he popped up on talk shows or wrote occasional educational essays about space - there’s a real need for more scientists who can communicate how cool their work is in passionate but understandable terms to the public. But his Twitter kind of ruined it for me.

It’s always wild to me how many people (almost always older people) seem to not understand how email works despite it being a common part of the workplace for more than 20 years now.

I tried to do a smoke along to the extended editions once in college and fell asleep before the end of Fellowship because I was stoned out of my gourd at 1pm on a Saturday.

Trying to sleep near the galley can be so rough. I was on a redeye in December 3 rows back from the galley and the flight attendants would. not. stop. talking. for the entire flight. It was horrible.

If Betances hasn’t fixed his issues from last season the Yankees should see if there’s anyone dumb enough to trade for him this season. Guy went from being one of the best closers in the game to a liability on the mound practically overnight.
