They were stars in one of the most successful shows in history...

I’m way more familiar with movements to preserve and extend recess than any attempt to ban it, and I live in a true blue county.

Watch the city end up paying for the whole thing

Wait, so instead of signing top young prospects and then never playing them and eventually allowing their confidence to be broken and then shipped off to Lyon a shell of a player, you’re saying that actually having a plan in place when acquiring a top young prospects is a good idea? Bold take

Counterpoint: Vlad Guerrero getting 71% and Larry Walker getting 21% despite significantly higher career WAR thanks to vastly superior defense (and several excellent offensive seasons outside of Coors).

I think you’re correct. It’s a pretty silly distinction but some writers have a compulsion to engage in mental gymnastics

It’s the same workout that they used at USF and no one was hospitalized there. Furthermore there is no accusation (yet) that any player was forced to go behind their capabilities or denied water or rest.

99% sure James Harrison has an actual career

More like Evnika Baadkickass, amirite?

Jackie Evancho has taken a ton of shit around Pittsburgh. Her sister is trans and I really hope people understand that Jackie has absolutely no say in the matter

He’s always been a smart guy- he went to Northwestern, after all. Being on so late gives him a ton of freedom and I think he’s even said there was a huge gap for daily commentary when Stewart and Colbert left. John Oliver and Samantha Bee are great but they aren’t a daily presence, while Noah misfires too often

Wait, you think Pats fans are less irritating than Steelers fans?

Another Steelers fan. Hit was an instant after the throw was released and the initial contact was made by the hands to the chest

You realize you’re on Deadspin.com and not the BBC, right?

Just as the ball makes contact with the palm, they close their fingers around the ball.

Wasn’t it the Ginger Hammer who clarified the law that violence against women is only a bad thing if there’s a publicly available video? These guys really need to attend a seminar by Ben Roethlisberger

I would hope so. If Jim Rice is a hall of famer, then Larry Walker absolutely is

Serious question- why does Guerrero get so much more love than Larry Walker? Walker has a huge edge in WAR, despite fewer games played, and even adjusting his Coors stats downwards, his rate stats compare well to Guerrero. Walker was an elite defensive player and was a good base stealer when he was young, too. I think…

Tom told me to prepare but I didn’t listen, dammit!

I grew up in Erie, so literally every other place in the country is a great day trip for me. We head over to Cuyahoga Valley and Hocking Hills pretty often. People out west wish they had interesting landscapes...
