Took place in Virginia? Check. Features lacrosse? Check. Involves white people being upset by getting caught, not by the underlying behavior? Check.

I’m not in favor of overgeneralizing about a culture but Russians are objectively the worst.

Its hard to emphasize how shitty that 2016 Niners team was; there was very little NFL starter-level talent anywhere on the field. There have been few franchise implosions as bad as what the Niners subjected themselves to after the 2014 season (I don’t count the Browns because they never had a solid base from which to…

I still think the most memorable mid-major run was Penn back in 1979. They were a 9 seed, but there were only 40 teams in the tournament. And it wasn’t like this was peach baskets and two-handed set shots basketball; they lost in the Final Four to Magic Johnson and MSU. I don’t think this was comparable to a 15 seed…

“Mid-major” as a conference designation works when there is relative parity across the conference. The MAC is mid-major because all the teams play at about the same level (with about the same level of athletic funding). When an individual team is an outlier for the rest of the conference, the “mid-major” designation…

Basketball refs are the worst. Rankings of worst officiated sports:

I live in Palo Alto and have been to a lot of Stanford women’s games. I appreciate the women’s game almost as much as I love the men’s game. But this game represents the huge talent divide that exists in women’s basketball: there just aren’t enough good women to go around. Girls’ participation in high school sports is…

Harden is great, but his “ability” to dink the refs into calling fouls on his “shots” is bad for the game. Its one more step on the NBA’s inexorable journey towards WWE-, Globetrotter-level officiating.

For a team like the Astros, with so many Hispanic stars, representing a heavily Hispanic city, to even show up to give Trump a sports boner is galling. I don’t care how uncomfortable Altuve looked: he’s a bitch for showing up.

I thought we were calling it the “G League” now. I don’t really care, I just want to call it by the right name. I’m still have FBS/FCS problems.

His “lack of height” also brings into question his “leadership qualities” and “mental fitness” to be an NFL QB. But I bet his penis is big.

Apparently, Florida is a good baseball town during March only. Why do we keep building baseball teams in football country?

Yes, and I think this is actually an advance in North Korean/Japanese relations in that Jong didn’t try to trip and then kidnap Sakazume. So, progress?

Fullthor Bjornson can deadlift 2,000 lbs.

I’m 100% you on this. My son kind of hates the Warriors because (1) he loves Lebron more than he loves me and (2) his grandfather was a Sacramento Kings fan. I spend a lot of time texting him Warriors memes while he’s supposed to be studying in college, but even I find this to be embarrassing. I will not be sharing…

Canada is adorable.

I thought it was Photoshopped.

Yeah, even the closet racists seem to be pretty jazzed about this movie. The hardcore white haters are shaping up to be kind of the movie version of the crazy “the apocalypse will occur on Monday, October 21st at 3:00 pm!” people.

“Just days before the film opens wide to all of black America”

But does it increase the chances Lebron re-signs? I haven’t heard how this affects the Cavs cap space, but I have heard that the Lakers end up with enough cap space (after they cut IT and Frye) to make a legit run at Lebron and Paul George.
