He was the first batter to face Oakland’s all-star closer Blake Treinen

Don King’s lust for money and his brazen rip-offs of fighters he managed also did a very big disservice to the sport. This piece is letting him off too lightly. He was a cancer on the world of professional boxing for decades.

The frustrating part for me is that football was declining for the right reasons before the protests - decreasing participation, players quitting young to protect their health, the overall sleaze of the league, the poor product, oversaturation etc.

Then the protests started and now the mouth breathers can claim credit…

Well, I guess that’s one way to get to 12% annual growth...

With good behavior, he is looking at 1-15.

I’d respect teams a lot more if they were just honest about guys like Winston and didn’t try to shove this bullshit down our throats:

Once you get into the playoffs, anything can happen. And that is when a singular talent like Trout could make a difference on his own.

I knew he and Skip were friends, but I didn’t know it was love.

I find the ubiquitous presence of Stephen A. Smith more difficult to explain than the election of Donald Trump.

I thought this was obvious. Stephen A. Smith has been in love with himself for as long as I can remember.

Those numbers you posted are for the total adjusted gross with inflation, so it is accurate that this $41 million opening is the largest for the franchise (the opening numbers listed in the 30s in the article are accurate for the others).

Serena was the greatest at last year’s Australian even without the period.

Both of those spin off shows were horrible. I will say that LeBlanc’s first (?) appearance on Married with Children is one of my favorites, its the episode where Al is trying to figure out a song he likes just based on humming “Hmm hmm, him...”
