It depends. I really could do with an Olympics that doesn’t deal with countless and countless swimming events; the fact that one person can enter so many events would indicate that there’s very little difference between events. Micheal Phelps didn’t win so many medals because he’s a well rounded athlete, it’s because…

Yeah, the Bears offensive line has been a mess this year.  And with Hicks out of the lineup, it turns out that the bears defense isn’t that great either.

1) instant reply and super slo-mo video.

The thing with Jordan is that as he got older, he changed his game to accommodate his age a bit ( less driving and dunking, more 3 point fades). Of course he still did the 4 steps and carry thing that would've gotten most players flagged for traveling...

When worrying about proper ethnic culture things, Mortal Kombat is probably the last brand that you want to bring into the conversation to use as an example. I mean, scorpion and sub zero are both completely meaningless to any real Asian touch points. They are, in effect, just colorful costumes that punch each other.

At least there won’t be another week of “Chase Daniels is the answer to take the Bears to the Superbowl.”

Well he's basically right about no one is a fan of SI, everyone is a fan of their teams.  SI routinely ignores Tom Brady most weeks when writing about the NFL... I'm not sure why I should care about some random WR playing at the college level.

In a world where musical artists show off their monthly royalty checks for .0005 cents from music subscriptions sites like Spotify and Apple Music, let’s all celebrate the exact same model for video game creators!

In the post-game interviews, Nagy admits that he told every official near him that he’s going to call a time out on the next play, and that he’s going to shadow what ever official he can legally shadow within earshot. Odds are there are time out flags and screams going on offscreen the millisecond the receiver catches…

Both Roughing the Passer calls were very Tom Brady worthy. In both cases the QB was still in the process of throwing, they were both cleanly wrapped up and simply fell down. Heck, the amount of effort Goldman put into trying to not touch Flacco when he was getting up resembled some crazy Circque Du Soliel routine.

From a game design standpoint, balancing between “carrying a bunch of useful stuff, but the more you carry, the more that hampers you” is pretty interesting. It certainly makes decisions more interesting than “I’ll just 15 different swords and 82 different shields around” because I can and am not penalized for it.

Is this one of those things that no one was expecting because they didn’t show their hand in pre-season, but now that everyone knows they’ll be doing noisy pre-snap motions stuff, the surprise is out of the bag?

This isn’t really surprisiing. I think it was Target that kept (keeps) track of purchases via credit card or something. One of the things they do with the data is track tampon purchases, and when a person stops buying tampons, they take an educated guess when to start pushing baby supply ads to you via email and…

Don’t forget kabaddi!

I would be even more amusing if Javy Báez winds up accidentally shredding his hamstring or something on that knee-down. 

From what I’ve read, victory gardens were the end result of the Japanese internment.

That’s what happened to Dave Foley (well, without the 13 kids with 12 different mothers thing). His divorce settlement was set during his heydays on “NewsRadio” but as his career has faded, his settlement agreement still requires him to pay that same amount even though he makes no where near that amount he did back in…

500 Days of Summer

Oh there’s a lot. For example:

I also wonder how much people staring at their phones instead of the game has increased in the danger.
