This. Times a million. It won’t be a Bart Gunn-Butterbean level mismatch, but I think Patrick is spot-on with the analogy of asking Steph Curry to play corner against Odell Beckham, or even an old-and-retired-but-ridiculously-talented dude like Steve Smith Sr. The only way this ends well for McGregor (in an up and up…

Well, everyone knows read receipts are bad. What this blog presupposes is... maybe they aren’t.

Someone asked. Sessions said the president’s words speak for themselves.

Don’t mess with otters. I know because I’ve watched Zootopia like 60 times.

Obligatory:

I love Rodman, but he’s perhaps the one guy who would have been devastated by the early 2000s rules changes. Now, he’d be borderline unplayable because he couldn’t just stand in a corner on offense until a shot went up with some poor schmuck assigned to stand near him.

Exercise I asked some friends the other day: Can you put together a team of 12 non-Warriors that you’d be SURE would sweep a Finals from the Warriors? I don’t think I can!

Remember when Whitlock was a successful professional who actually WAS still subjected to racist bullshit? I do.

This is why they think these are jokes, even though they’re clearly not:

This checks out.

Once came home on a rare day I didn’t have something going on after school, opened a new package of chocolate chip cookies, and if there were 24 cookies in it then I made 12 cookie sandwiches with chunky peanut butter and ate them all while watching a Quantum Leap rerun.

If I may speculate wildly (which seems only proper because this is the internet), it seems like the word “dated” is the problem. If the Madisons went to a movie together, alone, would Verducci count that? What if they made out at a party? What if they hooked up every few months during high school, and Bumgarner said,…

Cue up the ESPN app on your Chromecast or other streaming stick. The ads are repetitive, but they’re a different form of repetitive! And you get a lot more “This is SportsCenter” ads!

Mike Trout is 12th among active players in CAREER fWAR.

Reminder: Scott Brooks is the guy who couldn’t figure out how to keep at least one of Durant and Russ on the floor at all times in OKC.

I mean, he wasn’t good on defense, but he was such a great hitter he’s a HOF lock. Just for one measure, by fWAR he ranks right there with Larkin, Ozzie, and Vaughn among shortstops, and ahead of guys like Ernie Banks and Pee Wee Reese.

Largely in agreement that it’s usually a farce and theater etc... BUT! Maintaining the tradition that someone has to go in front of the public every day to explain the White House’s actions seems like a norm worth preserving. Get rid of the briefing, and it’s just encouragement to not answer any questions unless…

Major League outfielders never hear what people in the stands are saying.

Not much to argue with here. Beckham’s meal looks shitty.
