This column needs to be louder. I was thinking he needs to address that issue and be seriously bold during halftime, as if he had actually thought about how absolutely entitled and culturally deceptive he has been. But he won’t. And he’ll probably drink a Pepsi during some lame “togetherness” anthem. It makes me…

The beautiful thing is that the bag carousels are infinitely less crowded now and the bags arrive quicker because there are fewer bags to unload. It drives my girlfriend crazy, though. She always gets on ahead of me and gives me shit when I get to the seat. But, seriously, flying is too stressful with so many factors…

Reducing pressure on the airplane: Once they announce they will check your bag for free, check it. Sit in a chair and open a book. Wait there and read wile everyone crams the gate. Saunter on a minimum of 5 minutes after the last person boards (to avoid the stupid ramp back up). Stroll to your seat with your book. Sit…

Jokic just treated him like he would a little Jokic.

This is really well said and I see myself entirely in it. Thank you for writing it. It makes me extremely uncomfortably reflective of the times I too may have crossed a boundary, not understanding how my “safety” was safe until the point I violated that trust. Even if it was only seemingly innocent. Ugh. Makes me a…

Well...they did use the Sky-Cam.

He hasn’t been successful in his career?

He is genuine. No one said he isn’t or can’t be an a-hole athlete. He just does things and doesn’t care about the reaction. And that’s refreshing. Cause athletes are taught to be milquetoast. And that’s depressing.

I cherry picked the Deadspin narrative line. I disagree that that’s their narrative. I think most of the articles they write about him is more about how stupid the NFL/general sports fan attitude is when it comes to athletes who don’t “stay in their lane.” As if there is a lane the should stay in other than performing…

Forget what? What’s your point?

Exactly. Thank you.

The point about Marshawn Lynch is not whether he is a genius, it’s that he is himself in a sport that loves to crush individualism. He should be everyone’s role model for how to do your job, stand by your convictions, and still be successful—on your terms. I thought he was a look at me asshole a few years back, but…

Already looked broken to me.

DoooDeee!!!!

I’m tired of people saying the Nationals wasted starts by Strasburg and Scherzer. They were matched by Hendricks and Quintana. In fact, Hendricks outpitched Strasburg—he just doesn’t gas himself out over throwing. He pitches.

It can’t be any worse than New Comiskey/US Cellular/Guaranteed Shit field’s upper deck circa 1991.

These are more impressive.

A little mis-remembered...hubris.

I need to read better, but at 13, it would still put it at 1982—pre-color coding.
