Hmmm....

How many times does Serena Williams plan to make the 2018 U.S. Open all about Serena Williams? In 2038, we will surely be seeing the 30 for 30 directed by Serena Williams documenting the Serena Williams meltdown and Serena Williams apology followed by a Serena Williams-hosted roundtable discussion.

No! Because it shows that he possesses some level of self-awareness. Skip Bayless, on the other hand, genuinely IS a 76-year-old pearl-clutching grandmother.

So you’re saying the responsibility, or hope, rests mostly on those close to the individual. I think we can all agree there.

I guess this is where I’m confused: if the prevailing dogma shouldn’t be “try to get help,” because that’s insensitive, should it be “I cannot fathom the depths of your pain so just fucking do it already”?

Really, this. The Warriors developed and bought into a system that, as mentioned, is the basketball ideal: cutting, spacing, and brilliant passing on top of some of the best shooting ever. When everyone loves to pearl-clutch about the Warriors’ obliteration of parity, it usually ignores that aspect. Throwing a bunch…

Asking the important questions here.

“1) Why not? It’s free to play, and not everyone has a tablet or phone that’s powerful enough to play it otherwise.”

I really feel like it’s just simple ego. NFL teams are run by authoritarians, and egos are summarily cut or traded to the Browns or Raiders where they can die in peace. Baseball, as a zero-sum game, has no such thing as selfishness—individual production directly benefits the team at all times, so egos are tolerated.

There is a 100% chance that Pelinka and Kobe sat in a dark room and hatched out the fine details of this story together.

This. Bucks were 6 of 34 from 3 at one point, and that will almost certainly not happen again. Giannis was definitely feeling out the defense, and played uncharacteristically passively, and that will almost certainly not happen again. Toronto had to win this game.

For the purposes of this discussion, your unstated argument is that XY and eligibility for competition in women’s sport are not mutually exclusive. Which, I mean, surely you see the problem there.

Nobody who has any realistic shot at the presidency has any idea how to relate to the concerns of minority families struggling in the inner city. Please just accept this now.

Amy Klobuchar would be unanimously considered the worst Democratic candidate if the public had any awareness of just who Amy Klobuchar was.

Don’t know why this doesn’t get mentioned more. Westbrook is 30 and like one of his closest analogues (D-Wade) did, will soon begin to age in dog years.

I would like to see this core to have one more go with a coach who is prepared for the NBA level and can implement a functional offensive plan.

We’ve done it. We are a utopia now.

Embiid is the trollface animated as a basketball-playing human. One will either adore him or despise him; we all must choose.

The only team that likes each other is the Team That Was Promised and the First of His Name: The Milwaukee Giannises

Anecdotal, but my 9-year-old and his friends have completely jumped off the bandwagon. The end is nigh, and it may be the happiest development of my parenthood since he learned to wipe his ass by himself.
