Am I missing something? Didn’t MS have a foul to give? Why didn’t they foul on the inbound?

Am I missing something? MS had a foul to give, right? Why didn’t they? did their coach overlook it, or did the players just not execute? Not to take anything away from ND, that was an awesome finish.

“Phones are enough of a necessity...” I somehow made it through 12 years of school without a cell phone. Never once, in those entire 12 years, did I use or even carry a cell phone. And neither did any of my classmates. And yet, here we are. Think about that. Then think about the statement you made, and now you know…

I think justify doesn’t mean what you think it means.

Funny you bring up laws of physics. Stand on a sidewalk next to the lane of travel on a 35 or 40 mph street. In the dark. Then step out in front of a car. You don’t even have to be trying to move fast... just take two steps casually. There is no way a driver could react fast enough to avoid the collision. Even if they…

It isn’t about “justification”, or as Clint Eastwood put it “deserves”. There are a lot of peds out there who weren’t taught by their parents to look both ways before they cross the street. If you step out in front of a moving car where no driver could reasonably be expected to avoid the collision, then you are going…

We have these where I work. Complete and total pieces of crap. Not safe even at 25 mph. Not fun to drive. I can’t imagine any good use for these things.

I actually like being able to see a “normal” person doing something like this. The world class competitors make difficult things look so easy, sometimes it’s hard to realize how difficult it is to do what they are doing. Someone with plebeian skills gives us a visual perspective of what it takes to do some of the…

Ya’ll are making this too difficult. It’s a race. If they left at the same time, one would beat the other by 9 or 10 inches. That’s not a tie. That’s one person beating the other person in a race. It’s kind of the whole point of having competition.

And there’s the racism. From a douchebag who obviously thinks of themselves as morally superior.

When it comes to deplorable human behavior, what is it about big cities that brings it out in people? You couldn’t pay me enough to live in a big city. I guarantee you that would not happen at any of the businesses anywhere near me. There was an armed robbery attempt a few years ago at a local gas station/mini-mart.…

You literally have no idea what you are talking about.

Timothy Burke, Deadspin Video Director... Perfect. I have a question. Why are your videos so horrible? HD is kind of standard now, isn’t it? I keep seeing reposted video clips from twitter, facebook and other similarly low resolution garbage. It’s like we’ve taken a step backwards. 

Yeah, it must be from playing football. Because all those mental illness traits never happen to people who don’t play football.

“Can we get some love?” Can we get some HD? Why do people use twitter for video? I’m learning not to even bother clicking on twitter video’s ‘cause they suck so bad.

“At my company we had a generous sick/vacation policy. We also would make exceptions if someone got sick and couldn’t afford to miss the time. Trouble is, too many people look at sick time as free vacation and would use it up in the first couple of months then come in sick later on...sigh.”

I never said anything about “evil corporations”. I understand how capitalism (mostly) works to societies benefit. I actually agree with most everything you said. I understand the economic model that drives Walmart and I understand that most of us benefit from the lower prices. That doesn’t mean I have to like shopping…

I would rather pay 950 and have bigger seats, bigger bathrooms, and less people on the plane. And no, I don’t want to pay 3 times that for business, or 10 times that for first class. I just think economy class has become a race to the bottom. The airlines compete with each other to continuously squeeze a tiny bit more…

Yeah, if only they could come up with a universal indication that you should stop. I don’t know, like a stop light. Or two. Someone driving a truck who makes a conscious decision to run a red light is truly putting other people’s lives in jeopardy in a very obvious way. As the story indicates, there are signs and…

I’m done clicking on video clips that come from twitter. HD has been around for awhile now. Use it.
