Especially with such a stark juxtaposition between today’s ruling and tomorrow’s ballot. “WE NEED TO REALLY THINK CRITICALLY AND DEMOCRATICALLY ABOUT POLICE AND FIRE MONEY, LET’S VOTE. Oh, but a new stadium for a rich jackass? Yeah let’s just give him that”

It says a lot about Met fans that they will make a fan favorite out of a .250 hitter who hasn’t hit a home run in a month and a half and is a terrible defender, all because when he publicly found out that he no longer was on the team, was actually sad...like he wanted to stay. In other words, the Met fans will support…

Andrew Luck is going to be the richest athlete ever. His salary won’t even include all that extra cash he makes by charging people to cross the bridge he lives under.

Walking is really hard, you guys.

$72M — the value of print coverage of sweaty men practicing football.

So Papelbon is being an entitled crybaby? That’s really hard to believe.

Mookie Betts is a Good Baseball Name.

Manny cutting off Damon’s relay throw is maybe my favorite of the many things (ranging from brilliant to grotesque to fucking insane) that beautiful bastahhd did on the field.

This shit show will never end. I fucking love it at this point.

Another funny thing is that the Marlins “manager” said that the Diamondbacks, “Handled it the right way.”

Carmelo: Who should I guard?

Last Week 30 Years Ago Tonight with Bill Simmons, Part 2 of 3, (I know, it was only supposed to be 2 parts) but first, a few words about that Carmelo Trade, even though that was only 4 years ago and not 30, but, stick with me, you’ll see why I’m bringing it up

The Soprano

That’s badass.
