My wife and I took over hosting the holiday party after the previous hosts moved away. We usually have some kind of theme, either dress-up or dress-down, whatever we feel like putting out there. Anyway, when my wife gets drunk she likes to play matchmaker with the single people at our parties. As we get older, we have…

Not sure if this counts, but I lived in Seattle working retail for two years, and wasn’t making enough to afford a plane ticket home. So for Christmas, I made plans for some friends to come to my place so we could all commiserate. I made dinner, this unnecessarily complex version of eggplant parm that calls for…

That is straight up booster money. It was meant for a prostitute.

Hey, what do you expect? He’s a defensive guy!

The absolute best part of this is that he had $100 but not $60. Meaning he probably had a $100 bill. Which no one just has, it’s exclusively given as a gift from grandparents and rich relatives.

DeMarco Murray is competitive, high-character player who must feel abilities not being used fully and promises not fulfilled. In tough spot

Eagles fans didn’t look at this year as rebuilding. Chip made the playoffs his first year and as far as most fans in town were concerned, the rebuild was complete. If anything, this year was shaping up to be when “it all came together” or something.

And here I thought Desean Jackson made the worst cut of the night.

And we’ll never see the suit that Ray Lewis wore during last night’s pregame again.

Also, Colangelo was in charge of USA Basketball, right? So he’s got a relationship with the NBA’s top talent. Who better to have for the next 2 years of free agency

Not buying the narrative here so much. The Colangelo hiring comes completely out of nowhere, no rumors, nothing, and now a billion people are going off-record and know exactly how it went down? It sounds more like some disgruntled agents (who all hate the Sixers at the moment) getting their puppets in the media to…

I understand firing him for drafting poorly, or putting Colangelo in charge of the draft, but “The Process” of tanking to build up good players is a valid path to winning in the NBA. Ask the Spurs if they’re happy they tanked and got Duncan, or the Cavs tanking to get LeBron.

but it’s hard to feel too bad for a guy who’s never shown any interest in giving his own fans (or anyone else’s) even a half-decent team to watch.

The NBA operates on a certain assumption of good faith

“Fuck you, you’re getting a fucking embellishment!”
