I dont know how, but he pulls it off. I root for the arrogant bastard. Maybe because underneath the image, there is a sense of an authentic person who knows he is acting. With Floyd, for instance, it always felt forced, and wanted to be liked.

Had some fucker from Queens a few weeks back about to beat me up for “not knowing” that Wisconsin is inside of Chicago and refusing to agree with him. I shit you not. This dude went to a nice college (and presumably an okay preschool,) et cetera.

I can’t tell if you’re secretly shitting on Yankees/Giants fans with exquisitely subtle irony, or are seriously so Intoxicatingly Smitten With NYC that you’re completely blind to their very similar levels of obnoxiousness. If it’s the former, you leaned just a little too subtle. But I don’t think it’s the former. …

A tweet that an acquaintance of mine fired off on Wednesday night:

We could talk about how Chicago is a bastion of private construction unions, and how New York has been overrun with non union scab labor.

Before you hold up New York as a shining example of how to quickly absorb a championship and move on, let’s not forget that Yankee fans always act as if they deserve to win the World Series every year, and while the Giants do occasionally win something, New York also has the Jets, Mets, Rangers, Knicks, Nets and…

I’m laughing at this, imagining a huge Yankees fan in a RE2PECT T-shirt waking up a couple days after his team won the World Series and being like, “Can’t wait to try this new spot on the Upper West Side!”

New York City could be swallowed by the sea,

Counterpoint: you don’t have to have a trust fund to live in Chicago and the amount of human shit on the streets per capita is about 1/15th of that in NYC

I’m sure Mets fans would be quiet and polite if they won a World Series again.

You such an miserable elitest douche. For someone who always writes about those oppressed workers who need unions, you sure seem think you’re way above those same miserable shits. Hopefully you choke at your next bougie brunch.

Seriously. Yankees fans are some of the most insufferable cuntwads ever. What is he talking about?

Hamilton Nolan is not a real person. It’s just a pseudonym shared by the writers when they want to publish a terrible take but not have their names attached.

Exactly. Hell, they can’t forget a single decent play in a game, let alone a title. Something tells me this Nolan character isn’t as bit a fan of sportsball as he is of kipping pull ups.

And Donald Trump.

Here’s the “Official HamNo Contrarian Tepid Take” that was supposed to come out yesterday. True to contrarian form, he waited one more day just to be even cooooooler. :eyeroll:

I love how this pivots to shitting on Boston. There’s nothing those of us in flyover country love more than Pretentious East Coast In-Fighting.

I dunno Ham, if you followed the same standard you would’ve run out of stuff to write about 10 years ago.

What is this, amateur hour? People are throwing Chobani at the window.
