The greatest single episode of Raw is the go home show before the Royal Rumble that Austin won in order to secure his match against HBK at Wrestlemania 14 - iirc, the storyline was that Vince was trying to suspend him for being injured and throughout the course of this episode of Raw, I remember Austin stunnering…

The Tombstone is fucking boring, if you prefer it to the Stunner, you are an irredeemable fool

Yes, the shitty team with the best record in baseball who is 6.5 games ahead of the Cards, what a poor choice that would be, lmao

Actually he’d be forced to provide some valuable labor under a Communist system, only in a capitalist economy could he be paid to mouthfart and prop up white supremacy with his Stepin Fetchit ass

I was gonna go tweet at him that the CCP is now about as Communist as he is a Black Panther, but I couldn’t get past his zillions of respectability politics/Uncle Ruckus impression tweets and lost interest/my lunch.

Fucking seriously?

I’ve had one bad experience with a guy who, frankly, sucked but kept shit-talking the rest of the team for being “stupid and useless” the entire match despite the fact that he was getting merked just as much as the rest of us. My mic was nowhere to be found or I would have told him to stop being such a god damn baby.

Black cis women and trans women are always the forgotten ones. Well, them and indigenous people.

Those are the same people who insist that CNN stands for “Communist News Network” despite the fact that they’re fucking paying Corey Lewandoski to mouthfart about Trump while Trump is still paying him a severance package. Yeah, CNN’s reaaaaaaallll liberal, alright, you sure are right, right wing dipshits!

That is absolutely why these lunatics focus on FT% - they know they couldn’t hang with pro ballers on any other level so they fixate on free throws and blow its importance completely out of proportion.

Shaq was so bad at free throw shooting that they named this tactic after him originally. DeAndre Jordan is demonstrably a very good basketball player. You’re talking nonsense here, acting like free throw shooting is such an important skill that being bad at it means you shouldn’t play is absurd.

“NO ONE DENIES THIS!” always makes me laugh and I wish I could use it in other contexts but it just wouldn’t be as funny as this one.

Yeah, but jesus, imagine the shitstorms that would happen if the decision as to whether a team is trying to benefit from an intentional foul or not was up to the refs. Everyone always complains about every ref call in the NBA already, can you imagine how much worse that would make it?

You would have a point, if the only skillset a basketball player needs is hitting fucking free throws

Yeah, but a run (or a potential run) is worth a lot more in a baseball game than a couple of free-throws, generally. I don’t think that most basketball games are decided by two free-throws, whereas the intentional walk can end up really coming back to bite the pitcher and his team in the ass in a much more substantive…

Yeah, and then Americans don’t care, because fuck it, who cares about non-white people who live in another country? We don’t even care about non-white people who live here. It’s maddening.

Oh without a doubt, the fact that the Hastert story was just a blip on the news radar is INSANELY fishy.

Honestly, I hated him too, but his last game was just so fucking ridiculous that it was the only time I admired him just a little bit more than I hated him. Like, only fucking Kobe would do that shit, and you have to wonder if it hadn’t been the same night the Warriors broke the wins record if he’d have bothered. That…

I don’t disagree with your premise in general, but consider this:

Yeah, but Toronto is relatively a small market team within the context of the NBA, no? I mean, yeah, big market overall, but the Jays and the Raptors haven’t typically been real tempting spots for free agents to land over the years, which I’ve always kind of ascribed to Toronto and Canada as a whole not caring about…
