People are making a big deal out of this because it's literally never happened before.

done.

...if I was a Deadspin writer, I would write articles just so I could flirt with women, too.

ok

White people look the same.

Thug.

The hubris before the fall was ok, the best part for me was that you are kinda hot... soooo congratulations on being good looking.

Then why does this stat matter?

"I deserve more because I am pretty." Yeah, thats a way better argument.

Nah, not all of them. Rick Rielly predicted the matchup right and he's an idiot pundit.

Hobby? You mean what the Author said? Yeah, I didn't want to beat the dead horse there but Hobby/Activity still stand. "So why do people do it? Our tipster says that for all the stress, it's still basically a hobby, which in its odd way makes the conditions more tolerable.".

I'll worry about the plight of cheerleaders when all of the real labor issues in this country are solved. This is a part-time job for them and as the article points out, essentially a hobby that they do for the prestige of it. I'm much more concerned about people with careers who are being cheated/mistreated by their…

Dude, it's the internet. Hindsight and introspection have no place here. I WANT GRAZIANO'S ASS AT PIMLICO DOWNS YESTERDAY!

I know, right? How many more keycaps must be battered before everyone finally agrees to adopt your opinions?

I'd love to see a piece that really tries to grapple with this problem of assessing strength of field. I just have no idea how you'd go about it. Maybe establish which stats correlate most strongly to success, then look at how various players' opponents stack up in those stats? I don't know if that kind of data is…

And I didn't mean the streaks to be a knock on Nadal — just that they're one of the bigger feathers in Fed's cap in evaluating his body of work.

The general pundit narrative seems to be that Nadal's best game usually beats Federer's best (maybe a draw on grass), but Nadal's style is much more physically punishing. If this is true, then Nadal should have better per tournament results, but due to Nadal missing or crashing out of tournaments due to injury,…

In case we needed more proof that their culture esteems violence, lawlessness, and rejection of authority. High-schoolers are the fucking worst.

Assholes need to stop complaining about people recording in portrait.
