Similarly, this amazing tweet:

As a Nadal fan, I’m worried tomorrow’s match is just the thing Novak needs to wake up.

My excuse for everything from now on:

Prime Nadal on clay is the best tennis anyone has played in the history of the planet. Nobody has been more dominant on any surface of their choice, and it really isn’t all that close. He’s too good to be called a specialist, but he’s damn special on the dirt.

Relevant, the greateast tweet of all time:

Uh, Kawhi didn’t play. Green and Co did a good job defending him.

Pop owns D’Antoni, period. Those great Nash/Amare Suns teams never properly contended for a title because Pop knew exactly how to force them to play at the Spurs’ preferred pace and D’Antoni never once adjusted for it.

Not other greats, FELLOW greats. Pop is second to none as a coach.

I pity whoever wakes up next to James Harden, because there is not an inch of that bed that he didn’t shit all over.

Good thing Mike Milbury doesn’t cover the NBA.

I’d call them the 90s Atlanta Braves of hockey, but at least those guys won one title. More like the 90s-00s Astros: great talent, constantly stymied, got through once, were swept so fast that barely anyone remembers their championship appearance.

This is what happens to D.C. when you put a Russian in charge of it.

No, it probably went down like this:

“Plaintiff believed the group was headed outside for lawful purposes.”

I don’t think the guy went ‘by himself into an alley to fight two NFL players’ but I’m not sure what the guy thought -was- going to happen. Have a smoke? Trade Magic: the Gathering cards?

So this guy went by himself into an alley to fight two NFL players? Am I drunk and reading this wrong?

I saw this over on a Caps fan blog:

Caps would’ve won if not for all the Penguin’s ILLEGAL GOALS. So many bad goals allowed by terrible (or sick) reffs! VERY UNFAIR !

Caps don’t get out of the second round? That’s the first normal thing that’s happened in DC since Inauguration Day...

Except in DC politics, the Russian superstars actually win.
