Can’t argue with his Kanter argument against LeBron’s hypocrisy.

With the regular season about to start, it’s obvious that LeBron will offer no defense against Kanter.

I think this defense is broadly right—but it still amounts to LeBron saying that the sensitivities of one of the world’s most brutal and repressive regimes should set boundaries on what people in the NBA say in public. Which is fuckin’ gross!

This. Lebron fancies himself the voice of the voiceless, at least until it affects his paycheck. Fake-ass sellout doesn’t have a fraction of the strength of character that Kaepernick has. Fuck Lebron, and fuck the NBA.

A good time to remember that Colin Kaepernick gave up his job and all the considerable perks that come with it to stand up against injustice, while LeBron James, whose legacy and bank account are both more secure, is unwilling to risk even a small fraction of future earnings to speak on one of the few world issues…

I understand the players are caught between a rock and a hard place. But this has to be one of the most craven capitulations to money I have ever seen by a major athlete. Should have kept quiet. His rationale is bullshit.

This is just fucking gross. Thats really all I can say about it.

Exactly.

The headline could be better. My first thought after reading it was that this transgender person was made fun of in Chappelle’s special and later killed themselves- not that her and Chappelle were friends...

Anyone can flip, but can she break Joey Chestnuts record for eating 74 hot dogs in 10 minutes?  Doubt it.  

I disagree with a lot of what you are saying here. I do wish that Kerr said more, but you can’t just jump from “he didn’t say what I wanted him to say about this issue” to “stick to sportzzzz!”

He may not, in fact, give a shit but he also wasn’t Houston’s coach last year.

Damon, you can be honest, you know he got a weave.

There’s a real tone in this article that Reese is somehow to blame, or responsible for what happened. I’m really tired of women getting the blame for men’s bad actions. She left Phillipe 16 years ago. Even though she has to maintain a co-parenting relationship with him-in 2017 their children were both still minors-his…

But how are they doing this without the COLLUSION with the rest of the league to not sign BRYCE HARPER?!? Deadspin’s own Chris Thompson:

Not to take away from her accomplishment because its a worthy goal. but where the heck is my prize?  I did this 14 years ago.. (I’m a travelholic).. I just don’t believe in photographing myself (or being in pictures period, which is a source of contention between myself and my wife who believes in a picture for every…

This argument sucks, man! George W. Bush isn’t a lost child; he was the president. He saw photos of the torture, from the man who approved of that torture, and then he stood up for that guy. I linked to this in the blog, which I’m now not sure you fully read.

oh thank god somebody said it. gwb wasn’t bad, he just oopsie-doopsied the country backwards into a pointless war that killed untold numbers of innocent people and eroded all kinds of civil liberties for our citizens. the road to hell isn’t paved with anything, so we can just give him a sticker for trying his best and…

However, while I don’t think it means everything, I do think intent matters. Every decision GWB made, he (wrongly) believed he was making the tough choices to make America safer in a time when Americans felt very unsafe.

I believe that the Bush rehabilitation tour is only teaching the Republican party that all they have to do is install someone worse than the last guy. I’ve heard people who call themselves liberal who say with a straight face that they miss that chucklefuck, and when called out, say “well, he’s better than Trump!”
