FFS, people are whining over an OPTION? I frigging wish Netflix had more options. I’ve wanted to be able to stop the credits from auto shrinking since the very first day I had it.

After reading that piece where they admitted they basically had no fucking clue what they were doing with GoT, I would have fired them on the spot today if I were Kennedy.

Ah yes, but ironically I find that “sports only” sites generally have the mouth-breathingest commentariate.  I don’t want to read 10x a day how NFL players...well, non-white NFL players...should just be happy for whatever the benevolent owners want to pay them because otherwise they’d be pumping gas.

Yeah, that really says a lot about their writing style. 

...in addition to Rian Johnson who I think is great...

Something something rich white guys.

Mmm, yes, because the three movies that came out just prior to the Disney acquisition were triumphs of the cinema. 

Its interesting how the writers for a series whole final two (three?) seasons were widely seen as a poorly written mess can become such a hot property. It sounds like a case of ‘failing up’.

Just tell me we’re getting the Rian Johnson trilogy.

They weren’t comfortable making any Star Wars movies because they’re always so cyclically and thematically linked and, famously:
“Themes are for 8th grade book reports” - David Benioff

ESPN I suppose

If I wanted a sports site that did not deal with culture or politics and just stuck with sports I don’t know where I would go because I am not sure what boring ass site that would be.

In light of recent editorial directives for this site, the following comment will only be sports related:

Spanfeller and Maidment can fuck themselves with broken cricket bats.

This, so much this.

This

And despite your corporate overlords telling you to stick to sports, I hope Deadspin never does because

and I can’t emphasize this enough

I come to Deadspin BECAUSE YOU DON’T JUST STICK TO SPORTS

Did he live in an attic once?

It is good to see that if nothing else, the bone-heavy tone of Dissolve reviews is living on.

Channeling The Dissolve’s “Later, they bone” spirit here. Well done Mike.
