We live in a country in which the third ranking senator was insulted that the president wished every American kid could attend college. We’re a nation of numb skulls (pun not intended).

Jim Wynn aka “Toy Cannon” was very generously listed 5'9 and 168 lbs and hit 285 career homers. Pretty good all-around player; in 1969 he hit 33 homers, drew 148 walks and scored 113 runs with .943 OPS. Back then, though, the only thing announcers and writers talked about were his 142 strikeouts. As a 9-year-old, I…

“It happened in Seattle, it happened in Jacksonville, and it is happening on the Jets.”

“I don’t think he’s NHL ready right now,” said Pierre McGuire after the Habs picked him. He’s ready now.

And after his Oakland/Las Vegas gig ends in humiliation about five years early, Gruden will be welcomed back to ESPN with open arms at $6.5 mil a year. Meanwhile, dozens of long-time producers/writers/tech people will be laid off by the WWL.

I realize it was a different era, but pushing that woman into the locker room was WRONG. Fortunately, it seems everyone inside that locker room acted fairly maturely. Even Pete Maravich (RIP) was his normal snarky self.  

I’m pleased Durkin’s out, but disappointed that it took immense backlash for it to happen. Reinstatement never should have been an option. NEVER.

Came here to see comments making fun of Pete Carroll, and wasn’t disappointed. Meanwhile, Carroll’s on track for a seventh straight winning season, and his teams are consistently interesting and entertaining. No small feat in a league designed to keep teams mediocre.  

Max Muncy is a national hero. His homer saved us from being reminded of “Heroic Nathan Eovaldi” for the next 25 years. 

Sportswriters by and large are paid shills for owners. Even the so-called elite “news breakers” like Wojnarowski and Breer are 95 percent writing/tweeting about player injuries and contracts, or filing dry features controlled by league and team PR departments. Frightfully boring stuff.

It’s one thing to dislike the policies/politics of Obama and Hillary-there’s plenty to dislike—but this guy wants to eradicate Democrats on the grounds they’re “Anti-American”, “evil”, “socialists” and a bunch of other nonsense. Could we please get back to debating real issues in this country? Or is right wing…

And they go to bad at night convinced that life just isn’t fair.

Mushnick is yet another old white guy convinced that “lack of common sense” and “political correctness” are what’s ruining America. All while gladly accepting paychecks from Rupert Murdoch.

Excellent article, the type of journalism that should be practiced by NFL “insiders” like Albert Breer, Adam Schefter and Peter King. Except with them, it’s 100 percent about player personnel moves.

When one is surrounded by sycophants, all criticism—even warranted—seems unfair.

Another deluded Fox News viewer blaming her miserable existence on immigrants “cheating the system.”

Are you saying the Titans shouldn’t have gone for the 2-point conversion or that they should have kicked the extra-point and headed to overtime?

The 1969 Amazing Mets defeated Baltimore 4-1 in the World Series. Time of games: 2:13, 2:20, 2:23, 2:33 (1o innings), 2:14.

I just assumed Durkin was history at Maryland and the only issue was whether legal action would be taken against him. I mean, what the actual hell is Maryland even thinking about? I realize we’re dealing with soulless boosters, but in the name of decency please get rid of this guy. He’s clearly unfit to lead men. 

Dinosaurs raced this year at Emerald Downs near Seattle.
