1. Two Natty Ice’s Please!

What is this guy, a Warriors fan?

He looks like a Bond villain in the last one. Not the big bad in the movie mind you, but one of the mini-boss types that gets dealt with maybe 2/3rds of the way through in an explosives mixing gag or something. Bond wraps it up with a pun: “He should handled that more...gingerly.”

Oldboy. You should watch it, and after that watch Visitor Q. Great wholesome family entertainment. Emphasis on family.

Which, considering the NFL referees track record...actually sounds plausible.

That’s the letter of the law, yes, but its on-field interpretation by the officials has basically been “any contact = penalty.”

The rule is landing on a player, but there is also a rule that you cannot use a player as leverage to launch yourself higher.

I was always told not to feed dogs people food.

I’ve been through the worst.

This is well covered, but I just can’t get over how intent the NFL is on eliminating certain specific dangerous plays in a game that is fundamentally just large fast men crashing into each other at full speed, but the minute somebody says “uh, maybe you shouldn’t make them play on three days rest”, they’re like “woah,…

I thought that was already the rule. Or is the current rule that you can’t use other players as leverage to jump?

Don’t be that guy.

Yes. I was on last year. They tell you before the show tapes, to be loud and enunciate every syllable. They won’t give you credit if you pronounce the solution incorrectly. They do take common pronunciations according to region though.

(I’m not sure if they do anymore.) And the answer is: yes. They do. Jeopardy contestants got their spots by taking the test and then getting pulled…

Yep

Deadspin has a very jealous streak when it comes to Boston and its products (teams, writers, drivers, speech patterns). They disguise it with hatred, but we see through.....

And I mean, I totally get it. It’s easy to look at the jerk who is doing the same thing you’re doing, except better and on a much bigger platform, and just boil in envy. But it does tend to be a bad look when, say, Billy Haisley is publicly jizzing over Messi farting *again.*

My take on Deadspin’s hatred for Simmons is the usual “you hate the person most like yourself” thing: Simmons talks out of his ass, is an unrepentant homer, and relies on the same three or four gimmicks in his writing and analysis. So do most of Deadspin’s writers (particularly the ones most vocal about their Simmons…
