Shitty out-of-touch league reflects shitty out-of-touch country. Pictures at 11.

One’s a rich white dude.* The other is a black dude with an Afro.** Not sure where the confusion is coming from...

But Johnny Football has been making the media rounds and taking responsibility for his past mistakes. Maybe when Kaepernick does the same and publicly says that he’s fine with police brutality and systemic racism then NFL teams might start to pay attention again.

While his sustained (and somehow still increasing) individual excellence is, and has been, a marvel to behold, the most incredible aspect of his career has been the success of his teams. Yes, Miami was loaded with LBJ, Wade, and Bosh, but look at the dog shit teams that he played on in CLE.

Even when he does hit Kennedy’s fingers, there’s no lasting damage, since he never hits the same place twice.

From everything I’ve seen, watching LeBron work his arts night in and night out is the only thing in the sport that evokes what it was like to watch Magic Johnson every game night. Other players of his era had highlights of course, but even being as jaded towards excellence as watching the Showtime Lakers could make…

This! So happy I scrolled...the guy has a rap sheet a mile and a half long. When I was a copy boy at the Daily News a generation or so ago, he used to big-time all of us. Jimmy Breslin, legend, was as nice as can be, and respectful. The entire sports department were cool people. But Lupica? Tool.

Calling someone a diva within a few moments of meeting them makes you a dick, even if the person is a dick, or you are just kidding. The unearned familiarity that people adopt with strangers is dickish. Lupica is an a-hole for his tantrum, but there isn’t anything wrong with him telling her that he doesn’t want to do…

So wait, this woman did a bunch of research and learned a lot about Mike Lupica and was somehow unaware that he is a smug, humorless prick?

He’s actually at 44 goals.

Am I the only one who kinda feels like Michigan State just wasn’t very good this year? I know, I know, they only lost four games. But they basically beat two good teams all year (Carolina on a neutral floor in December and Purdue at home in February) and their best road victory, according to KenPom, was against…

Man this is such a tragedy. I can’t believe in today’s day and age with the technology and access to knowledge we have that people still can’t turn their phones sideways when taking video.

Basically, amateurism has always been a cynical sham.

High school teacher here. I can say that it quite literally has not been a blip on the radar. I’m in the mountain time zone so it happened right in the middle of our school day, and I did not even know about it until I got home from work and got on fb. In my two afternoon classes not one student said one thing. An…

The First Amendment is outdated and unnecessary, I agree with that. It is not quite as outdated as the Second Amendment though.

Just as depressing is that something like 70-80% of Americans were in favor of the post-Newton regulatory proposals, which were mild but, you know, something. And they didn’t even come close to passing. And there appears to be nothing we, the people, can reasonably expect to do about it.

This is a weird example of the cross-roads we find ourselves in. On one hand, he’s at the Olympics and just pulled off one of his best runs of the week with all the pressure on him to win Gold, and after a long journey to get back to Gold. We should be celebrating that achievement because it was awesome and it was…

I don’t blame him one bit. It was settled in 2016. No one asking questions actually expected him to get into a big discussion about it right? Then why ask?

To be fair, a huge part of Ronaldo and Messi’s dominance in Balon d’Or/FIFA awards voting is scoring boatload of goals against shit Spanish clubs.
