How I see this playing out, is now Goodell is going to go on and on about how St Louis was a good city and how their stadium plan just needs a little bit of work for it to be viable (read: taxpayers need to fork over a few hundred million more) and he’s going to work hard to find a team that is a perfect fit for St…

In 15 years, I look forward to explaining to my son why the Rams are leaving Los Angeles.

Considering the public vote will never pass, I assume the option is just for Dean Spanos to work out deal terms he likes with Stan Kroenke.

I’m a STL Rams fan since I grew up in STL in the 90s and early 2000s, and what was fucking bullshit is that Goodell said STL didn’t do enough to keep the team. The city actually approved funding, built a fucking plan, and is ready to move forward with it. Instead they say fuck you St. Louis, give money to the Raiders…

Financing stadiums for billionaires! What a great idea!

Just fyi, Deadspin’s official editorial policy is that the Chargers holding an option on moving to LA is the same as them having done so; they can eat shit until they decline the option, and for that matter if they do they can eat shit for having lorded it over their fans in the meantime.

I’d send them a farewell package but I already shipped all of my dildos up to Oregon.

God that’s a terrible idea. The NBA has a cap and they’re smart enough to allow teams to keep their great players. All a hard cap would do is funnel more money into billionaire’s pockets instead of the people you are ostensibly paying to watch.

I will say that it’s fucking refreshing to hear a reporter actually challenge this bullshit. If this happened in the States, you’d be able to hear the point where the guy instead of asking questions like a normal person just started fellating Bettman.

Fuck all sports commissioners. Line these pieces of shit up against the wall.

Are you sure she hasn’t had repressed/forgotten memories of Jedi stuff though? I remember her flashback of being left on the planet. I’m pretty sure that was Kylo Ren holding her hand and dragging her away from the ship? (It’s been a while so I don’t remember exactly, but there was definitely a Shady Guy leading her…

The “Mary Sue” complaints are so gendered it’s ridiculous. No one ever whined about Anakin Skywalker (all of TEN years old) doing badass things.

Actually, only 10 NBA teams have won titles since 1980: Lakers, Celtics, 76ers, Pistons, Bulls, Rockets, Spurs, Heat, Mavericks, and Warriors. But I think that has more to do with basketball being a sport that can basically be dominated by a couple of great players than anything to do with the salary cap - look at…

The alternate Calgary eye-opener made me laugh much harder than I care to admit. Well done.

Agreed. Last year’s finals were Cavs vs. Golden State though. Oklahoma City, Dallas and the Heat have been in the finals in recent years. The Hawks were great last year. Do you think the model will rotate on its own with an influx of superstars and smarter GMs using different tools to evaluate talent and roster…

Canadian here. I too, was fooled into believing that a salary cap was necessary to keep the Canadian teams afloat, and help competitive balance. And of course the ticket prices would go down, right?

GODDAMN YOU LYING GOOGLE IMAGES YOU BASTARD

Have you seen my sneakers?

is it? Honest question because I don’t see many people looking back and hating the Celtic-Lakers rivalry, the Bad Boy Pistons, MJ-Scottie just edging out Clyde and the Dream, Kobe/Shaq or the Spurs. As a reluctant fan of the Wizards, I’d like more parity too but I’m not sure the lack of it is necessary a bad thing.

This morning, NHL commissioner Gary Bettman went on Calgary Eyeopener to discuss the Flames’ proposal
