As a Niner fan, this was the worst possible outcome.

You kind have to assume that most of the owners of professional sports teams are good at making money (or keeping money they inherited). That’s not nothing.

Man: Goodell, Jones, King, the NFL’s entire ownership and administration structure. There are literally no good guys in this conflict to even ironically root for.

Isn’t Mindaugas Kuzminskas a character from Harry Potter?

So I am confused by the Allison Mack/DOS story. Does it begin with willing submissives who voluntarily give up blackmail-able information, or are they tricked into giving up that info and then find themselves involuntarily participating and recruiting?

There isn’t an episode recap post for every episode of The Exorcist, so I’m piggybacking on this post to express some disconcert over the latest episode (the one that aired after Cheryl’s above column).

You know the “Magical Negro” trope in movies? Jimmer Fredette is that character for midwestern, white basketball fans.

LaVar will spin this as keeping all this in the family. LiAngelo will just be making Lonzo’s shoes in a Chinese work camp.

I remember a long time ago that SI or Sporting News had an article that showed that teams that played Monday night had a worse record in the game following than they would have be expected to playing a “normal” schedule. I believe they even suggested that there was at least an increase in injuries in games following…

That’s amazing and those kids Maple Grove will win every “Well, once when I was in high school . . .” contests at future cocktail parties.

Not to be a dick, but I think that’s on you.

I am not a supertaster, but I fucking hate IPAs. My hatred is a combination of my feeling that the brew is too hoppy (I really like hearty brown and Scotch ales, porters, and stouts) and my rage that every fucking beer on the shelf that isn’t shitty Budweiser is a fucking IPA. “Hey, Don; I read that millennials like…

Christianity.

There is a lot of context missing here. Admittedly, I haven’t followed this situation closely since it happened, but I hadn’t heard that Mirotic was a cancer or shitty teammate before this happened. Mirotic seemed like a better than average NBA player entering his 4th season, while Portis was pretty bad in his first…

God, I would so love for Pitino to get taken down for this and for that to be the straw that breaks the NCAA camel’s back. But the NCAA and each of its member institutions have so many firewalls baked into the system, I know that the odds of Pitino being penalized beyond his recent firing are exceedingly tiny and…

I have long resisted the “They’re just stupid” analysis of situations involving groups with different opinions than mine. I’ve usually been able to understand at least the general outline of and foundation for the “other side’s” arguments. The first time this outlook failed me was during the 2004 Presidential…

I was talking to my son about this tonight. I think Halladay is at least a borderline HOFer (I’m a small Hall guy and not particularly a fan of Halladay, the Jays, or the Phillies) and I think its so sad when a guy gets into the Hall after they’ve passed away. If Halladay was going in, it was going to be sooner than…

I don’t want to play the blame game, but I blame LaVar.

Yeah, I was going to say the Nuggets social media guy is a little sassy, but stoned seems more on point.

While Polaris’s perception that the young mutants need to learn to not only control their powers, but use them as vital survival skills for themselves and others, she has about the stupidest instructional plan ever. What deadly object was she going to throw at Illusion Boy? At Pretty Water Girl? Those are both…
