It still blows my mind that he’s six months younger than Aaron Judge.

I wish I wasn’t at work right now, or else I’d link to a YouTube video I have fav’d of Pedro Alvarez in college. I remember the transcript, though, and I post it here just to point out how half-assed this Reds fan really was:

As a media trade journalist since the late 1980's, I had some exposure to Sinclair Broadcast Group’s Baltimore-based executives — I can just tell you they are some of the most wacked-out, Murdoch-style Far Right monopolists and wingnuts in any American industry sector. David Smith, one of the sons of the founders and…

This actually came up toward the end of the Watergate scandal, too. When Haldeman and Erlichmann found out Nixon was resigning, they tried to persuade Alexander Haig to get them a meeting with Nixon so they could discuss pardons (to “spare the country the divisiveness of a trial”, was their excuse).

Long story short: he had a shoulder injury that caused him to lower his release point. The particular injury causes muscle fatigue/weakness, so his range was limited. The ideal is to raise the ball to the release point and shoot it with a characteristic wrist flick, all in a fluid motion; what he was doing was raising…

So will Obama and Pence be their seconds?

Hi Michael,

There are many great things about this photo but my favorite is that the rim is still so far away that it isn’t even in the picture.

LeBron obviously sending a message that he’s going to the Celtics.

Judge Violates Gag Order

Just score it E-Manfred

Just fucking call it a draw after 11, 12, whatever. Why go thru this mindblowingly idiotic process that changes the fundamental structure of the game?

I think the biggest problem is what you address, this won’t actually speed up a game. Both team’s chances of scoring are increasing the same amount (relative to the ability of the offenses. I’d assume this would give a fractionally slight advantage to the better offensive team). It won’t lead to games ending quicker,…

I’m sorry. I read this and I get it, but I’m still having trouble processing the words “Jets” and “plan” being in the same sentence without a also containing the words “have no,” or “lack a conclusive/consistent” in between.

In fairness, they’re now free of the horror of having an effective black quarterback. They’re now free to draft a somewhat less effective but super scrappy white dude the fanbase can pin all their hopes on until week 5 or so when they realize he sucks.

Nobody’s missed the point, you ignoramus. Everybody knows why they asked these stupid questions. That doesn’t change the fact that they shouldn’t be asked in a setting which is in every way a job interview.

This is mediocre Kinja.

One of my favourite things about athletes discussing mental health is that it hopefully shuts up those people who think depression isn’t real, that if only you’d exercise more you’d be fine. I fucking hate those people. I don’t take medication, nor did I undergo several rounds of ECT, because I don’t like jogging,…

Pronounce it Latinish. That way the X actually kind of fits and is a tribute to the Meso-American languages.
