"'Hey Rich, what do you think they'd do to us if we were in here?'
'Fuck us.'
'Oh, I'm not a homosexual!'
'They don't fuck you cause you like it! They do it just to see that look on your face!'"

Hmmm. Funkiest song ever written for TV? What's the competition?

Yeah, this is "throw your back out" music for my over-40 self.

I haven't heard his latest album, but the first half of that Honest Cowboy EP was really really good.

You should check out Diamond D's "The Diam Piece."

And of course the final line of the episode gave me chills.

Revelations had one of my favorite exchanges of the series, between Solonius and Spartacus.

This episode featured one of my favorite scenes from the entire series: when Crixus tries to prove that he's back in good form and Spartacus delivers just an epic ass-kicking. They took a moment that really could have been played as just desserts and really made it so much more emotionally resonant. And Andrew…

With the exception of the Pietros/Gnaeus storyline, I thought this episode was kinda blah. It felt like they were just wrapping up the loose ends from the first half of the season and repositioning everyone for the stellar second half. Not a bad episode, but not one I'd revisit on its own merits.

What if Su Yin killed or imprisoned Toph years ago?

There are a few reasons people pick Lebron apart:

"Unbelievable breaks in the draft?" Like winning the first overall pick 3 out of the last 4 years?

Oh, thanks. That makes sense.

Can someone explain Nixon's role in the division and how he fit in the command hierarchy?

Yeah, this article is a prime example of the pernicious idea that art that comes from minorities or art that deals with the minority perspective is mainly lauded because white people feel guilty, not because the art itself is legitimately good.

"mission that mostly goes off without a hitch—only one man dies, and the only other major problem involves someone who can’t swim falling out of the third boat, so it’s stuck back on the opposite shore"

I'm split on whether or not Manziel will be a good pro, but I'm pretty confident in thinking that Blake Bortles will be a fucking disaster. What in the world was Jacksonville thinking, taking him with the 3rd pick? They picked Blaine Gabbert a couple of years ago because he was a big, athletic guy who was super-raw,…

And Scott Brooks is not such a great coach. There's a reason that so many OKC possessions involve Russ "dribbling around until the shot clock expires." It's cause Brooks' offensive scheme is generally "one of you two go make something happen."

I never pay attention to the NBA until after the Super Bowl and the All-Star game, and that mid-Feb through April regular season feels perfect to me.

Man, did I hate Landry. I came close to dropping the show on more than one occasion because of the way it endorsed all of that "nice guy" crap that he pulled with Tyra.
