Only if you were sucker enough to believe that bullshit initially.

As a fan of any team but the Bulls in the Donaghy era, this feels mighty stale now.

Is the French Open still the Grand Slam event you can win if you can’t quite win the others? I remember when Roland Garros was Ivan Lendl’s favorite annual stomping grounds.

You know what’s tougher than that, even?

I thought Telfair was a weak-ass fake gangster wanna-be, but then I read all these “DOOD THAT AIN’T NOTHIN” comments. Apparently, a sizable portion of the Deadspin commentariat are just walking Peckinpah films!

Also, Gov. John Kasich.

Xanax is such a powerful barbiturate, its street name is Televised Golfing Event.

The Bulls’ fave, “Jordan and Donaghy both have ten large riding on this game” rules.

Something tells me Lonzo Ball’s NBA tenure is going to be the worst three weeks of his life.

Unlike JR Smith, Richard Jefferson, Kyle Corver, and the rest of the Branson Cavaliers?

So, how many years back would we have to go where sportswriters would actually use the word “uppity” for this situation, rather than the shit-weasel way they’ve implied it now?

Of all those elite backups listed, I look forward to watching Garapallo fail for the team that didn’t pay attention when Matt Cassell robbed some team.

Is the officiating style that late 90s “Foul for interference of a possible highlight reel moment for Mr. Jordan” technique that Tim Donaghy made famous?

Depends. How much does Donaghy owe at the time of the game?

Here’s hoping for those 90s glory days of getting humiliated in the first round again!

Because toxic communities don’t spread voraciously. Right, white supremacists?

Yeah, he pushed those buttons really well! It takes a lot of skill, determination and hard work to push buttons like that! I hope he gets properly compensated for that once-in-a-lifetime-button-pushing! This is not at all a sign of decline as a species!

“I brought you into the public eye, and I’m gonna take you out!”

In this...heart of darkness...

What’s going to get lost in all of this asinine behavior is that the entire tournament’s officiating was, in fact, shoddy.
