Do I send my thanks to Miami or some Caribbean island?

The awesome thing about Red Curry? It’s red curry. The shitty thing? Every time you see one of the 8 billion barbecue flavors you’re woefully disappointed. Work on that color scheme, Kettle.

Somebody think of the displaced Montero. Dude lost his job to Contretas, lost veteran presence status to Ross, and now has somehow lost World Series hero to Zobrist.

This is a great example of precisely why we don’t take racism toward Native Americans seriously. We know what Black and Hispanic and Asian folks look like. We expect to see them in public. But due to years of genocide and insane colonialist policies, we don’t see Natives or even understand what some in the community

The dissonance between management being at all a class act while threatening to bolt San Diego is the biggest hammer Bosa’s camp has...and they don't even need to pull it out to claim the high ground.

He played a pretty solid game, with Collins going out of his way time and again to express how much better he though Cousins was than DeAndre Jordan. Guy’s trying hard to play his way out of that bad situation (but not as hard as some Kings fans are trying to gild the turdblossom of their team, it seems).

This just proves the lie of NBC’s editorial reasoning. If women are driving these narrative choices (as NnBC claims), and if (per NBC) women don't necessarily care about sport, then how is picking meaningless floor routines smarter than a historic medal ceremony? Unless the point is to do everything you can to keep

Tocquevilles for our times.

If you start making rules about guns, you can start regulating them. Slippery slope for some folks. So better to take to the internets and blather about accidents and how hard simple safety rules are.

Gun people aren’t a protected class because you can leave your gun in the car or at home, but keep making false analogies dipshit. Or, to answer your question, yes I’d make it in public since you’ve publicly demonstrated you’re a dummy.

Somebody died. Intentional or not, shrugging at this as an accident is fucking stupid. Also, if we can’t expect police to be extra-vigilant with gun safety, how the fuck can we trust them with public safety?

Joey Votto continues to be one of the worst people in baseball. Always posturing about how serious he is while being recently mediocre on a perennially bad team.

The Minneapolis Police union is a maybe toxic group run by a certainly toxic Kroll.

You only shed a cap hit if it’s an albatross. Subban isn’t that. Any team would have offered the moon (and magic beans, to be sure) to take Subban off Montreal’s hands. Let’s assume that Subban was a huge pain in the ass in the locker room and rubbed Pacioretty the wrong way (a big assumption on the first count and a

I’m with you. The desire for a narrative really kills the spectator part of spectator sports. There’s room for analysis and account of why teams win and lose that aren’t linked to some grand story arc. And at this point, the story arc seems to drive the analysis or explanation and then we’re just as much an audience

But! This election, because it cannot serve as a referendum on anything else thanks to his populist rage-a-thon campaign, will be a referendum on that brand of overt racism. It’s sad that it’s going to grab 40% of the vote, but the rebuke will be very clear.

I know a national anthem isn't the same as a team anthem, but since Canadian music peaked with O Canada I think it deserves some recognition

Nothing left to see here. This anthem outlived its franchise.

There doesn’t have to be. Maybe lots of fans want there to be some responsibility on the guy with his head down. But that’s judgment. It’s the same judgment that leads you to see the video as Marleau doing everything he can to finish a check softly without killing him, and me to see him still toss his body to the side

DoPS consistency and reasoning being what they are, Marleau gets to play in game 2 only because the Pens eventually won game 1. He’s sitting if he makes that hit and the Sharks are up in the series.
