‘Alfie’ is a vastly underrated film, beginning to end. But, yeah, I’ve always thought the new year’s party scene, when she drunkenly clinks glasses with Jude Law and breaks both glasses and starts laughing uncontrollably, and the camera goes to his face, which is definitely not laughing, it might be the best portrayal…

Yep. Like Yogi Berra once said, “It ain’t started until it’s started.” And for now this is just a team with 2 really good players, one of whom is will turn 35 next season following a year of injuries. And Davis, great as he is, has never had to play for a team of any real consequence so we’ll have to see how he does…

To be fair, in a quote from later in the interview (which you conveniently did not quote from), Kinberg clarifies his point:

You definitely have your priorities straight. I knew about that case generally, but didn’t know the details or motive. Just thought it was a random nut. That’s gruesome. Saldivar is up for parole in 2025. It seems like that murder was just, like, 5 years ago or something. 

It’s not as easy as it looks. 

Ignore it at your peril. 

Another lesson to be taken from this Finals series (“Final Clubs. Not Finals Clubs.”), and it is this:

Take some comfort in the fact that you were no less informed than everybody who *didn’t* say the Bucks would slay the East. 

What a waste. He could’ve just used this tweet instead.

It will not shock me one bit when we learn that the Hunters believe that rabbits lay eggs.

I climbed Mt. Everest last year, without any sherpas or oxygen. I happened to be in Nepal for a business meeting and thought, you know, while I’m already here and everything. Might as well climb Mt. Everest. It wasn’t as hard as you might think, but then I’m a very good mountain climber, apparently. Here’s my picture…

They’re not bad at killing, though. 

You could turn your question around and ask, what kind of drug kingpin would trust the murder of his wife’s lover on some random bunch of doofuses?

Not if you’ve ever known a human being. I’m not saying this story is true, but anybody will fuck anybody anytime, especially if there’s danger involved. No one knows why. We all think we’re good but want to get away with being bad, and we all think we’re immortal but we want to face death. 

It’s a lock that this story is going to get weirder before it gets normaler. 

I hear ya. But if anything in this life is certain, if history has taught us anything, it’s that you should never trust a team doctor.

Didn’t even Wojnarowski on ESPN say the problem with KD’s calf injury was that he was likely to overcompensate and hurt his Achilles as a result? I feel like the morning SportsCenter anchors talked about that specifically before Game 5. Very hard to believe the Warriors could possibly believe the real risk was a…

I still blame Zaza Pachulia. 

I’ll say Stammen has it worse because Eickhoff’s outing is sure to be redeemed when Bryce Harper steals home later in the game.

She’d better stay out of California.
