Yeah, it’s a little revisionist because of the Knicks era in particular, but there was a good decade stretch where he was legitimately a great player. Maybe not a great all-around player, but he didn’t fluke or usage into those 28 a night for years and years, he was a legitimate terrifying offensive player for some…

Melo will always have a special place in my heart for this epic twitter beatdown.

When you’re a 35 year old former first option, you have to make the choice between being an Iverson or a Vince Carter. 

Sorry but Airlines are not the business hill I would choose to defend. Saying people shouldn’t book these tickets because they are taking away possible seats from other passengers is ridiculous in a business that regularly over-sells seats and punishes paying customers based on this practice. When airlines start…

Dude seems to be upset that a 33 win team got handed the best player of all time and he suddenly had expectations. By the way, this was after convincing his boss at the time to draft Anthony Bennett #1 overall (which essentially got said boss fired and Griffin promoted to GM) and bringing in David Blatt (among other gr…

Earl has was a customer of mine for 15 years. He’s a very genuine guy, funny as can be, and his family are amazing folks. His sons and wife are just great people to be around. But it always saddened me seeing that man try to even walk anymore. Football destroyed his body, but luckily he made some great business…

In his closing speech, Ryan says that he “hoped that he captured your imagination”. He sure did; in imagining which deer in the headlights animal he reminded me of.

Honorable mention to every exchange between Bernie Sanders and an absolutely terrified Tim Ryan:

The $260 is what you get for winning your first round match at this tournament (Lebedev was playing in the qualifiers to try and make the main draw). It’s a pittance but at this level you’re playing for the ranking points, not the money. The idea is to accumulate enough points—and thus a higher ranking—and start…

Tennis Player Cramps, Pukes, Perseveres, Cramps Again—

at some of the lower level tournaments, especially challengers the prize money is minuscule. Even at the pro-level, only the four Grand Slam events have a large payout for even the first round(that is why they have had a problem in the past with players showing and immediately retiring after the match starts just to…

in order to qualify for tournaments which disburse prize money, amateur tennis players looking to break into the pro-circuit have to participate in lower-level matches which allow them to earn the ranking points necessary to enter the aforementioned tourneys.

He would have been doubly at fault.

At least he withdrew before getting to deuce.

You couldn’t be more wrong!

The more typical route is to go into consulting/finance and ruin the world for everybody else.

Let’s be clear - puking in a bathroom of a gas station 7/11 off the interstate after you just spent the last of your money on meth is rock bottom.

Carmelo was kind of a cranky dick to him, but otherwise I don’t think the Knicks really fucked up too badly (with Lin - they can be blamed heavily for almost everything else). He had a meniscus tear and missed the end of that season just 25 games into “Linsanity,” during which he’d already come back to earth a bit.…

someone ran an election on trying to pragmatically appeal to disaffected republicans in 2016
