c) I haven’t looked this up in a while, but I’m not quite sure that top 3 picks typically get $10k/year for their shoe deals. Sure, making your own shoe is more badass than that (I guess? Maybe?), but I seem to recall reading about 7 figure deals from adidas, nike, etc., for Ball.

How is 124 attempts over nearly half a season a small sample size? Do they have to play the entire season before you’ll allow people to make a claim about the kind of year anyone is having? It’s ironic that you attack people for using a small sample size and then claim that they shouldn’t have run the ball based off…

“But trying to drop the mic after said bad take makes you look like a smarmy douche.”

Good luck with this. KC lost, which is all the proof some people need that the strategy was terrible. Of course, the evidence that it was actually a good idea is irrelevant, so you can’t win this one. I’ll never understand the people who look at an outcome to determine if a decision was a good idea in the moment, but…

How old are most of the participants in this stuff? A lot of this sounds like kids being a-holes to one another. Obviously, the death threats should be fully prosecuted. The other stuff reminds me of the kind of nonsense guys would do and say to each other when they’d have beef in high school or when we are all in…

Yup, so how do you deal with that? Probably by keeping a defender back to guard the cherry picker. Which means you have less cramming in the box, there is more spacing, which allows the game to free up and more exciting plays to take place. Or coaches allow the cherry picker and press forward trying to get an…

I’m constantly advocating that they simply get rid of the penalty entirely. Make defenses play defense. It will spread the field, open up more opportunities for exciting plays, and will completely eliminate the incredibly frustrating situation where something amazing ALMOST happens only to be called off because a guy…

Ugh, I can’t handle watching these guys get hurt. It’s crazy that at the moment I’m more terrified of seeing something horrific watching basketball than I am watching football.

I mean, I agree that KD shouldn’t be universally despised or anything. But for some reason most fans/sports teams seem to view their team’s star player leaving the same way most of us view a past relationship. Tell me, if you found out an ex girlfriend who left you for another man recently did a bunch charity work on…

These reactions all speak to how horrible this was, but the one that hits me the hardest is just barely being able to see GH and watching his head slowly droop forward. That’s just devastating to see.

To be fair, it’s not like the area of the world Iran is in is one that the military needs to be concerned with.

Why is this guy still pitching? In the Nats series he gave up 6 runs in 2.1 innings, including a grand slam, for an era of above 23. He also walked four guys in those 2 innings. As a Nats fan, every time he came in the game I was ecstatic. I’m not sure why you’d keep using a guy in the playoff that gets the other…

Wow, you jerk off your mother with those fingers?

The stack of clips is the worst! All the paper clips get caught on all the other ones, they end up combining some stacks with other stacks, or they fall off all together creating a situation whereby a stack of loose pieces of papers come tumbling out all at once, likely in front of the big client/judge/boss.…

This sort of doublespeak and ridiculous make-believe about what people are taking is one of the reasons I wish sports would come up with more realistic drug policies. Wrestlers taking roids, hgh, etc., is one of the less shocking things I could have read about today, but everyone has to go to these amazing lengths to…

Maybe so. But wasn’t PTI on sportscenter for a long time before it became it’s own show? I thought that’s why it was called “pardon the interruption”- they were literally interrupting the broadcast. It was just so popular that it got spun off into it’s own show.

Completely agree. I’m appalled that wasn’t mentioned.

Oh no. It’s now gotten to the point where it’s not funny. It’s just sad. I feel sorry for you. I hope you are doing okay. Best of luck to you.
