Dang it. You beat me to it.

There is nothing we know about Trump that we did not know a year ago or ten years ago. I argued during the campaign that the narratives about Trump and Clinton were poured in stone decades ago. The supposedly liberal media chose the, um, facts to fit the narrative, rather than building a narrative around the facts.…

Yup. Don’t remind me of things I don’t want to think about! The same folks who don’t want politics in sports are the same yahoos who get all misty eyed when the NFL has a TOTALLY NOT STAGED reunion of a member of the military with his family, or cream their jeans when jet fighters do a fly over.

After I finished watching the game, I flipped channels. I was all like, “What what WHAT? Hurricane Maria? Rohingya? I was so enthralled by the majesty of the athletic display that I TOTALLY forgot about these things!”

“Why, in the Peking Opera, are women’s roles played by men? Because only a man knows how a woman is supposed to act.”

Other commenters are saying his fine should/will be reduced because blah blah blah. It’s roughly equivalent to saying “Your honor, please be lenient on my client. This is the first time he’s ever been convicted of disemboweling a homeless person with a linoleum knife.”

I’m too lazy to go a-Googling, but what about the official? FFS, how do you miss this? His mouthpiece went into orbit. The league should sit the refs down like unruly children and say, “Now what did we learn?”

I believe Phil Fulmer’s still looking for work.

The fight was more interesting and competitive than the game.

The real winners are the CFB beat writers. Now they can rehash their season previews from the past 10 years. All they need to do is change a few names. “After years as an afterthought in the SEC, the Vols have all the pieces in place to challenge for the SEC in 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 2018.

About 85 percent of sportswriters are from NY, with another 50 percent from Boston. Zero rats asses have been given about the Mets or Jets or Knicks for years.

Yep, free agents are going to line up to play for Lavar.

Paul George is going to have to carry a picture of a basketball in his wallet so he can remember what one looks like.

I’m going to go with... yes?

The sports hive mind still believes that players will flock to NY and LA because they’re the two biggest markets, as if the internet was never invented. ‘Member when all the free agents flocked to the Knicks to gaze in wonder at Phil’s rings and bask in the aura of his Zen glow? I think Magic will be as successful as…

LeBron has been outspoken. I would love love love to see him take on the league with this. This is so nakedly racist it sounds like it came straight from the White House. We have a lot of rich people in the stand, so we don’t want you uppity negroes making a fuss. Just do your work and keep your mouth shut if you know…

Fixed it.

It doesn’t matter. They’re interchangeable. There’s more variety in a tub of red Legos.

The joke here is that he supposedly has unparalleled access, but doesn’t tell us anything we don’t already know. “Players and coaches tell me off the record that Brett Favre was like a kid out there.” God, what a hack. I haven’t read him for years, but I always bristled when he would lump himself in with Dr. Z. Those…

You buried the lede. What kind of coffee did he have today?
