Man, I should have just written "Dead or Alive shouldn't be a guilty pleasure" and then gone and got a sandwich.

Maybe you should note that Jae Crowder then took the ball on the break and dunked hard on Cousins on the very next possession? That was a pretty dramatic/telegenic dunk too, and more than redeemed himself:

I was born in 1987, so I was five years old when the Blazers were in the finals for the third time in the franchise's history. I couldn't tell you jack shit about '77 or even '90 for that matter, but I watched the ever-living hell out of the '92 playoffs since I was finally old enough to understand what the hell was…

I was walking to my car to drive home after high school. For some reason, I was barefoot. I can't recall why exactly. But as I headed to my car I stepped in a huge pile of dog shit. It was gross, but without anything to wipe off the dog shit right at that moment I thought it could wait. I got in the car and began…

"Actually, analytics refers to a type of bug that lives in your butt."

It's the kind of season that would make someone hang himself from the rafters.

Its surprising what people can believe when their paycheck is dependent on it. The number of times fights are featured in stories about the NHL indicates that it is highlighted & celebrated.
