Considering the competition, Fed has a near-zero chance of winning more majors. Age is undefeated and especially merciless in men’s five-set tennis. For a given set he can look great but to keep that level of play to win a major, it’s not going to happen.

Has anybody heard Hubie Brown do color on the radio? Although far from perfect, he’s still an above-average analyst. And then I look at his age and see he’s 82.

How many Gawker editors read/knew about the David Geithner story before it was published?

Ha, “guacamole bowl.” It’s a molcajete, if you rilly wanna know.

Spurs can’t score enough. Aldridge back to earth, not enough outside shooting, Kawhi asked to do too much at both ends.

Troy Aikman’s entirely appropriate chuckle at Buck’s outrage remains a highlight in ex-jock broadcasting (though it must be said that the bar there is pretty low).

Somebody named Lapsley (they of course have a Swedish “a” in their name, so I’m spelling it wrong), covered Nothing Compares 2 U this morning on LA radio. She’s got a great set of pipes, and the song is gorgeous to begin with, so I enjoyed it (it’s near the very end).

I am no expert, but if you stick to pre-1970 Hag I think you’ll be more inclined to see him as the talented guy that he was.

I’m mercy-ruling it now...Jezzies’ take on Deadspin >>>>> than Spinners take on Jezebel.

Do you get paid by Gawker Media to tweet? Is there some kind of bonus writers get for driving traffic to the site and/or getting followers?

Hey, I liked Watchmen!

Maybe they actually ran a tox screen and picked something up, but most likely the news reports are taking the user at his word. And what people say is LSD is usually “acid,” some random mix of synthetics sold on the internet that could be anything, pretty much.

Someone on Twitter suggested that the main reason Marco won Minnesota was because he shares the same last name as the T-Wolves’ Ricky Rubio.

I’m honestly not sure if the ref messed up or not. The DQ scenario *does* give fans something to look at besides the guy on his back writhing in real agony. In that way, it’s better than if the ref just counts to three and the winner gloats while there’s a guy on his back writing in agony.

Shoulda been Simmons.ly

The latest chapter in the storied Texas rivalry between UT-Austin and Texas A&M: Which Heisman trophy quarterback will have the saddest post-college life, Vince Young or Johnny Manziel?

That’s a very busy headline!

How can you write so much about a rapper who doesn’t matter? Kendrick, Kanye, Pusha T matter. Drake, Future do not. The difference between the former group and the latter is that the rappers who matter (more or less) honestly use their art/craft to rap/say things that matter to themselves and a whole lot of other…

Actually, self-deprecating Jeb is the best Jeb. He should be saying stuff like this more often.

The future of joke journalism, maybe. As the article states (at least now, not sure if this was added late), the interviewer is a comedian.
