I gotta say, golf handles these things in a much more chill manner. There’s no need to tackle someone just because they have a drinking problem.

First of all, shout out to all the other teachers in here.

Two, it’s not a perfect critique. The spirit in it shines through, which is what makes it so great, but sure it’s a little rough around the edges in terms of form. Guess what? THE KID IS FUCKING NINE. He’s off to a good start. Just the query “How can white…

Whoa whoa whoa this guy likes Duke basketball someone pick me up off the floor I can’t believe it.

The “blah blah blah” in question served a purpose, in this case to express his anger and frustration with what the teacher was saying. If his journal entry solely consisted of “blah blah blah”, then yes, that would be half-assing it.

Sorry. The teacher in her sentence in response.

Nobody knows what the teacher said, but her response to him is complete and utter horseshit. “Disappointment” should be reserved for a kid half-assing a journal entry, which King certainly didn’t do. The teacher had an opportunity to have a real conversation with a student, and instead she took issue with her getting…

I just want to add this very minor point, from someone who knows his way around sports betting:

Don’t fucking bet teasers. Do. Not. Fucking. Bet. Teasers. You. Dummy. The books have it figured out. -110 on a 2-team 6-point are fucking horrific odds. You won’t win. A guy who is way smarter than us named Stanford Wong…

Incredible band. Samson also has two more recent solo albums out.

You know who I bet is pretty chill? Jayson Tatum’s dad.

Very well-stated, agree 100%.

I think we’re low on fighters who can present a compelling matchup for Lomachenko. It’s a damn tall order to fill.

I don’t find prospect development fights terribly compelling, that was basically just target practice. I think ESPN would’ve been better off moving these to a secondary network and having the Heisman presentation lead right into the main event. The main event pulled good ratings, but Errol Spence pulled 4mm to beat up…

I think there’s a baseball-related case to be made for trading Stanton, but the firing of guys like Conine and McKeon and the scout who’s recovering from colon cancer, Jesus Christ.

I typically enjoy Mr. Nolan’s writing, especially w/r/t boxing, but this is completely silly.

I started using it (and incidentally making money from it) because it’s a convenient as hell way to bet on sports. It’s not infalliable, no currency is. And while I find the BTC-dogmatists to be insufferable, I don’t know if…

Under patriarchy, “I believe you” is essential.

To quote the late, great Sean Price: “White people please do not recite the chorus/Or we’ll have to wash your mouth with Lavoris.”

Counterpoint:

DON’T tan your balls.

“Fortunately, there are many witnesses who can and will confirm that I was never abusive to Alice.”

A witness that was present whenever they were together for a span of 10 years? That is some real horseshit right there. Fuck. This. Guy.

Mark Jackson was as bad as Kerr is good. He was really holding them back, in my opinion, but it was also Curry’s game taking a leap, and Green’s emergence that catapulted them. A lot of things went right all at once, I don’t think there’s really any revolutionary strategy at work here, but the front office has done a…

Very true about the West Coast. California has some pretty dicey areas as well, especially up north and in the hills/mountains.
