That’s Cory Joseph who gets shoe-smacked, not Greivis Vasquez. However, if you asked Vasquez whether he’d rather take a sweaty shoe to the face or continue playing for the Nets, he’d give you a hard pause.

Tim Kaine might deserve more credit than he’s getting. Sure he didn’t tear Pence to pieces, but that wasn’t his goal anyway. He tore into Trump and got Pence to demure defending him. I have to imagine Trump blowing up on Pence is exactly the response Clinton wanted anyway.

I know that the answer to gross misogny is not violent possessiveness, but I gotta say that I’d love to see someone’s parent, sibling or partner just beat the shit out of that orange tumor for something he said. An electoral atom-smashing (I’m talking 65-35 or worse) would be a better repudiation, but I’m having a…

Good point, though you and I have different definitions for “city.”

OF COURSE they screwed up the flag in San Diego, and of they did it when they’re playing against Jacksonville. Those are maybe the two military-dependent cities in the nation. Of course they did.

How many sentences do you need to know it's a bad column? Exactly one-half sentence: By David Brooks.

Jack Del Rio after the play:

I think the term you’re looking for is troll.

-As a Sac Kings fan, I am legally obligated to believe that the NBA/refs conspired to deny us the 2002 NBA championship. Don’t know if that is a wild take, conspiracy theory, or both, but there it is.

So the only proper way is NASCAR-style, yes? Tell yourself you’re watching with fascination and admiration of the skills of those involved, because even if it sometimes doesn’t seem impressive, it’s something most of us could never do. However, you’re really watching because of the chance for multiple wrecks and maybe…

Better to pray than to look into the screaming maw of incomprehensible decisions and fearful future that most Kings fans are facing, I suppose.

I’m a Sacramento Kings fan, so I go back to 2011 and throttle the Maloof brothers to death. After that, I go to Geoff Petrie, give him a long, comforting hug while telling him that they're gone and it’s ok, then I tell him that picking Jimmer Fredette is the stupid thing he could possibly do. I then tell him he has…

This reads as if Silk sponsored an essay for a intro-level college class titled “Nutrition, Culture, and Ecology.”

Klinsmann did what he does- constantly change line-ups in ways that indicate that he doesn’t particularly understand his teams. He was dealt a bad hand, but played it poorly, then played his attempt to save face poorly.

How you lose matters. Klinsmann responded to losing three guys by stubbornly sticking to a flawed plan while continuing to let talented players languish. The guy is petty, uninspiring and just not a particularly good manager. Losing to Argentina is expected. Losing like that should get someone fired.

Don't suppose we can get another one to piss on Klinsmann?

So I think we're well past omens and into the stage of God/The Universe actively screaming at us that the Brazil Olympics will be a horrific shitshow.

Au revoir douche bag! What a great night!
