Ok, here goes. Writing this out makes me want to barf. 

Fuck me. As someone who takes hip hop pretty seriously, I have never been a fan of Eminem (not because he isn’t talented; he clearly is, he just doesn’t appeal to my sensibilities) but this is REAL.

Much like The Beastie Boys his lyrics may have evolved as he’s matured. Just because he spouted misogynist bullshit at 20 doesn’t make him one currently. (I honestly don’t know anything about the current content of his lyrics.) Full disclosure: I’m from Detroit where he places just behind Bob Seger as our most low key…

Damn. He hit every fucking note: The Wall, The Klan, North Korea, McCain, Hillary, the NFL, the distractions, Puerto Rico, Gun control, drain the swamp, the military, the Deplorables.....everything.

What makes it cool is that he “free-styled” it off the top of his head. Its one of his talents that made him famous.

Matt Damon has four daughters, people! He’s now contractually obligated to care about women.

The ad isn’t about a black woman “washing the black off” and turning into a white woman with the help of dove soap. It’s about dove soap being good for women if every skin color.

I mean, I don’t know how much clearer I can be about this (I also don’t know why people dance around making this point): If you support Donald Trump, you’re a bad person.

Of the men staying silent, I wonder if any of them have similar skeletons in their closets. Especially those that went out of their way to kill the original story from coming out.

They’re America’s team more than ever, a disappointing franchise run by an aging dipshit and employing a lot of crooks.

Fuck Jerry Jones. Fuck Donald Trump. And fuck the Cowboys. You ain’t America’s team anymore. That honor belongs to the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Those revenue opportunities should give us better ways of pumping up digitally native talent and developing a more diverse set of contributors who make good internet across different platforms.

“What was it like, Dad? When Trump was President?”

This is now the second time in a month that ESPN has fallen on its face while trying to discipline one of its biggest personalities for daring to talk politics on Twitter.

When I was a kid, I used to wonder, “What does ESPN stand for?”

Also... SNL nailed E!’s shitty programming this weekend:

I don’t usually write comments just straight critical of the article, but this is pretty brutal. You basically just summarized somebody else’s opinion piece. You could have just put a link to TPG’s site and been done with it. Even then, it should have come with a disclaimer that TPG is not exactly an unbiased…

This makes me a little sad because I have AIM to thank for one of my best friends in life, but we’ve never met. In late 2003, I, checkers3585, 18/f/houston, was in a Houston AIM chatroom, and I struck up a conversation with realfootball8, 23/m/houston. I don’t remember what we talked about, but we had enough in common…

That creaky open door effect was the sound of promise, young love, and breathless anticipation. Hearing it still makes me giddy.

I grew up down a one-lane dead end dirt road, no neighbors in sight. My wife did too (not the same one, thanks). I have two daughters now and I think a lot about the things that got me, as a nerdy little guy, excited in the country. Rain storms that brought frogs by the thousands out onto the road. Lizards and snakes,…
