I think that we have established that pitch counts have the greatest correlation to arm injuries of any other metric. While other factors can have great (or even greater) impact (e.g., a submariner or knuckleballer puts generally less stress on their arm), studies have shown that pitch counts above 110 tend to result…

After WWII, the Germans were forced to face the atrocities they committed on their neighbors. One of the consequences of that is a high degree of national intolerance for racism and xenophobia developed in the post-war generations (although that intolerance is being challenged by the increase in foreign…

The whole article could have just been the headline "Marshall Henderson Has Very Dumb Thoughts". Full stop.

There really isn't anything more pathetic in the sports world than nonathletic hecklers who think they are contributing something to the game (although, if it is witty, which is very rare, you can get a pass on patheticism). Fuck Robin Ficker.

It is very difficult to overcome social conditioning that starts in childhood. I think the best we can do is be aware of that social conditioning and internally challenge it when it rears its head.

I hate to put the kibosh on education, but you are not understanding the population at issue. Prison populations draw overwhelmingly from the poor and uneducated; the author to the contrary, there are not a lot of inmates for whom education has ever been an interest. In addition, there are more "low IQ" people in…

I thought it was funny. I thought the best bit was Sterling's reaction to Rodman putting his hand on Sterling's shoulder.

Jesus Christ, the World Cup is going to be horrible. Kidnapping will be the best thing coming out of this.

So are you inferring that no. 8 means the worst or hardest? Because I interpreted it the opposite (that no. 1 was the hardest).

The blonde guy in the first picture must be really rich. Because only really rich guys wear their hair like that and aren't heckled "Hey Siegfried, where's Roy?"

Exactly what he said: it was a foul, but there is no way the NBA suspends KD, Lebron, Kobe, Carmelo for a game 7 in an identical situation. The NBA appears to really, really not want its MVP to exit in the first round.

I gotta give the kid props for his "yeah, whatever; day in the life" attitude after making the catch.

It surprises me that Oates has so little understanding of the rights protected by the Constitution. The First Amendment (and all other parts of the Constitution) limits the power of the government (both federal and state) to punish individuals for their speech, practice of religion, forming groups, etc. (albeit with…

Wrong! Trick question: there are no best Adam Sandler movies; they are all tied for worst.

When I was in college, we went to a Giants-Dodgers game at Candlestick Park. Being poor college students that needed to save their money for beer, we had bleacher seats. Back in those days, the Giants had been horrible for a long time and Candlestick was about the most miserable place in the world to watch baseball…

My son and I have a debate regarding who we would pick if we needed one last bucket to save our lives. He insists its Lebron; if we were talking about one last game a la SpaceJam, I would agree. But I say Durant and this series doesn't change that. The dude scores and not even Tony Allen can stop him if Durant…

There are absolutely no heroes in this story. The rich, racist asshole; his horrible, vindictive wife; the vacuous 20 year old gold-digger with multiple plastic surgeries: this is everything everyone hates about L.A.

I see Neil Patrick Harris playing Laubhan in the upcoming TV movie.

We watch Ferguson only occasionally due to its hour, but we have always enjoyed it when we do. I only know Alice Eve from Star Trek 2, but now that I've seen the two clips you linked to, I suggest a Charlie Rose-like show on PBS featuring Ferguson interviewing game actresses like Eve and Bell. That would be great…

I think the second most likely search return on any female celebrity is likely to be "Blah blah bottom".
