I’m a Rockets fan. I’ve never had a scenario in my life as a sports fan where I love a coach as much as I love Pop, respect a team’s incredible two-decade-plus run of consistent greatness as much as I do, and hate the fucking team as much as I do. Pop is better at the thing he does than just about anyone alive is

I’m among a small minority of Vol fans, but I’m really glad Tennessee couldn’t get Gruden.

White guy who looks the part and is charming (to at least some) gets the benefit of the doubt. This has never happened before.

Do you really think he stopped doing speed in the 80s?

No. According to them, Denial is in Argentina. Or Venezuela. Or whatever. Does it really matter?

It is 100% not Michael Sam. Who I’m not thinking about right now. And never think about. 

He did pretty much the same shit five years ago against the Rockets to avoid a Game 7. That one was a just a “regular-ass” three and he didn’t score 47 before it. But the Blazers were down two when he did it to the Rockets. Anyway, Lillard is rude as hell. With a history being rude as hell. Fucking awesome but also

Maybe. But that doesn’t really explain why they (other Western Conference teams) can’t figure him out over the course of an 82-game season. I don’t buy that the games are that much different in the playoffs or that teams don’t care about the regular season. Perhaps Golden State doesn’t. But that’s it. Teams have been

Count me as part of the Sky is Falling crowd among Rockets fans. They had a phenomenal second half of the season after final remnants of the funk left by Carmelo was gone. James is amazing, but he’ll have one game in the conference semis something like Game 3 of this round. Let’s hope it’s just one game and it’s not

To have earned his reputation as the “unlikable one” on Bill Maher’s show is the only thing that hasn’t been given to this shithead in his entire life.

For a guy who’s spent his entire adulthood in one make-work job after another in which he relentlessly and publicly kisses super-wealthy rightwing ass, Trump must look like the ultimate prize. If he keeps up the absurd flattery and the meanness, Trump will let him be buried in the family tomb. Alive, of course.

So, yeah, just have an absurdly athletic team of freaks do unconventional shit that works only because they’re absurdly freakish. 

A lot of “old pro” analysis sucks. This does not. So often the old guys fall into how much worse/softer/weaker/whatever-less-manly-signifier today’s game is than when Retired Superstar was playing; and that trend really cuts across all sports.

It worked so well in Game 2 that Harden had 17 points and 4 assists (on three made 3s and an alley-oop) with four and a half minutes to go [in the first quarter].

Barkley has been saying for two straight seasons that he is the best offensive player in this era. I don’t know what exactly Barkley considers this era, except that I think it’s fair to call it everything since the hand-check rule changed in 2004.

McGahn was concerned about having any role in asking the Acting Attorney General to fire the Special Counsel because he had grown up in the Reagan era and wanted to be more like Judge Robert Bork and not “Saturday Night Massacre Bork.”

Why would anyone in Barr’s position, at his age, and for all the terrible shit he’s already done, give a flying fuck about his reputation? The masks are off and these assholes are doing their best to make sure none of us survive them.

This isn’t a challenge of prosecutors or law enforcement. It’s a challenge of a law that allows the public to obtain the records of prosecutors and law enforcement. That is a very different thing than what you’re describing. 

Yeah, but also embarrass the ol’ shithead. 

Leak it.
