Is it racist to say that Americans elected a racist? No, it is not.

The Mayor of Toronto doesn’t exactly wield the same power, and does not represent the collective voice of a majority of Canadians.

Canadians have watched this last 16 months in a sort of bemused horror. You’ve finally done it, America. You’ve put your racist, misogynist, jingoist, bloated bigot caricature in a position to rule your country for four years.

Two people died because Jose Fernandez had some beers and cocaine, then didn’t drive a boat?

Reviewing the strike calls that were missed doesn’t address when the strike calls were missed. Bautista was called out on a missed third strike that was way off the plate, for the third out of an inning with two on.

If Hunter wants fresh souls, he probably shouldn’t go to the team where they’ve been dead for the last decade.

The task force being shut down right now is superficially baffling, considering that the 2018 World Cup will be played in Russia; a study cited in the AP’s report recorded 92 “incidents of discriminatory displays and chants” from Russian fans at matches during the 2014-15 season.

I see the NFL still hasn’t instituted the Draymond Green rule.

Just say it: poise.

You just knew at some point the world would be taking style cues from Riley Curry
