Are you trolling or what?

It’s understandable that there was no record to speak of in his past, but it’s weird that the NY theater / Yale community immediately and loudly starting talking about how this was basically an open secret. That seems like something Disney could have figured out before pinning their whole franchise plans on him. They…

Paul Rust cast himself in a show opposite Gillian Jacobs and I think my eyes are still rolling several years later.

MLB The Show has a terrific character creator. I recreated myself well enough that my wife was creeped out.

The movie with the Paul Walker sendoff was 7, not 6.

I’m all for a woman of color taking over the Bond series (it’s beyond stale even if Craig is great), but it hasn’t been implied officially that Lynch is going to be the new series lead going forward. She’s just the current spy designated 007 in this since Bond is retired or whatever.

Star Wars fans: Boo fan service! Stop rehashing stuff and give us something new!!

...it doesn’t imply that. “Another ALW creation” references a single show, namely Phantom of the Opera, which is named immediately after said phrase.

Well even there he was quoting his Dad’s call of Kirby Puckett in ‘91.

I promise you not a single Cardinals fan understands how the hell he won that Gold Glove in Miami. Ozuna is a lot of things, but a reliable outfielder is not one of them.

Sports are weird. I’m a Cards fan and I was super pumped when the Martinez hit dropped into the outfield... and then I immediately wished it hadn’t because you could see how deflated Sanchez looked knowing he had lost the no-hitter. If the Cards are going to suck regardless, it would have been cool to see some history.

Oh Smith isn’t *good* per se. He just has enough of a track record to get away with that in pre-season. That’s not to say he’ll actually handle it better in meaningful games.

Hah yeah oops. But yeah, Smith can be forgiven a little for not giving a huge effort. The bad pass is a problem for a prospect.

Well... #42 is a 22 year old middling prospect. Preseason might be the only time he ever gets to play for the Rangers, and that really wasn’t a good look. #46 is a career NHLer with a virtually guaranteed roster spot. You expect the lower effort play from him in the preseason (and also because it’s Brendan Smith and…

If you’re going to say Winter Soldier is a pastiche of political thrillers then you should also acknowledge that The Dark Knight is basically Heat with comic book characters.

Saying Diesel was in all of the Fast and Furious movies is a serious misstep that immediately disqualifies the author IMO.

I think it hurt his value a bit, but only to a certain extent. He never had a great reputation for defensive play with the Blues, and his stint with the Caps just confirmed the rep was correct. But it probably wasn’t new information to NHL GMs. They knew who he was and knew he was sheltered in St. Louis.

Yeah I just made a reply about this. That’s what happened when the Blues tried to trade Shattenkirk. He wouldn’t agree to sign an extension with anybody and his value cratered.

The idea of allowing teams to negotiate with potential trade acquisitions can really go both ways. This scenario is actually how Kevin Shattenkirk ended up in New York a couple years ago.

Last 10-15 minutes of the game was turnover city from the Blues. Not even forced turnovers from the Bruins, either. Just dumb, lazy plays. Like on the Pastrnak goal how Blais and Dunn just sort of... stopped playing.
