Those idiots just ruined it for everyone else who had figured this out. The team will now order smaller cups for the "small" and charge the same prices as before.

Yeah, adding Carmelo should solve everything.

Boy are you missing the point. No one cuts down trees to insult "Nature activists". "Redskins" has only ever been a derogatory word for a minority group, at least as far as its usage among white Americans. The NFL's claim that the name "honors" Native Americans is demonstrably untrue and ridiculous: they were…

I actually saw Washington play in a game when I was about 11. It was against the Twins and he got thrown out. My dad told me Washington was strictly a pinch runner. Even at that age I was surprised they'd give a roster spot to someone who could only run once a game.

This happens every few years, most obviously when the team is a mid-major that is riding one guy (think Indiana State and Larry Bird as the extreme example of that) and that guy goes down before the tournament selection. That seems to be justification for dropping the team's seeding; they just aren't as good without…

No.

I'm pretty sure the last 3 guys on the bench are just the guys from Workaholics.

Give credit where credit is due: the dad saved the kid before he hit the fence.

When I was a kid 40 years ago, my grandmother gave me mukluks for Christmas. I knew then they were lame; adding cleats doesn't help.

When I was a kid, one of the New Zealand rugby teams (I don't think it was the All-Blacks, but may have been their B-side) toured the US and played some college sides. My dad, who was a big jock (turned down Pirates minor-league contract and UCLA football scholarship to play basketball at Stanford and was an…

I'm not completely positive on the biology of this, but it is my understanding that muscle mass depends on the amount of testosterone one produces. Men produce more testosterone than do women (generally), so we produce more muscle mass (and have greater strength and power as a consequence) than do women. If her…

Are these guys scientists or just dicks? Actually, scratch that; even if they're scientists, they're still dicks. Hilarious dicks, but dicks nonetheless.

Ever since we moved back into the present day a couple of episodes ago, I kept waiting for Woody Harrelson to say "I'm too old for this shit."

There are two types of coaches: the ones that coach the fuck out of the game (i.e. most "great" college coaches, ever) and good coaches. All a coach can do is prepare his team well during practice by maximizing his players' individual strengths and combining them into a team. During the game, the only thing he can…

Albert Belle IS an asshole, that is a given. But I don't think he's saying Miguel Cabrera the MVP is the closest player today to him (he probably believes this). All I'm seeing is that he dodges the question and talks instead about how he doesn't watch MLB, but likes how Cabrera plays. Belle did deserve the 1995…

There is no hypocrisy quite as pure as the hypocrisy that comes out of the mouths of major college football and basketball coaches.

Jesus Christ am I weak.

Westbrook engenders extreme ambivalence in me when I watch him. On the one hand, he is just as likely to shoot you out of a game as he is to win it for you and he must be a nightmare to play with on offense because you never know when he's just going to say "fuck it" and barrel to the rack. On the other hand, that…

I have no rooting interest, but in response to the "Jackass as Oscar winner" fantasy, I will remind you that until 2007, the Oscar scorecard read Three Six Mafia 1, Martin Scorsese 0.

I think retaliation beaning is, and always has been, utter horseshit. You beat me, so I cheap shot you when you are effectively defenseless. Just do better, you chicken-shit, golf-pencil-dicked baby.
