And yet he's carrying water for a candidate who has, quite literally, advocated for torturing innocent people. Not that McCain would know anything about that.

Wow. Slow your roll there Terry Eagleton.

And the winner of the GOP Vice Presidential sweepstakes is...

So one could say, that "thoughts and prayers", is in fact political correctness. It's not only convenient, but a lot of the time, and most certainly in this instance, completely disingenuous. Btw I'm referring to the politician's disingenuity, not individual posters'.

Well he's not wrong, on either account. But that's still not a good enough reason to vote for him. "He craves attention, I must vote for this person!".

Djokovic is without a doubt a victim of timing. Tennis fans have been absolutely spoiled thanks to the magnificent duo of Federer and Nadal. Those two appear to gather up just about every type of fan there is. Like smooth, effortless, regal play? Federer’s your man. Like gritty, hard, demonstrative play? Nadal's got…

No clue but it sends a clear message: "Eventually we will catch you - if you're Eastern European."

It’s funny you mention weightlifting. There’s a big rumor going around that Ilya Ilyin’s London and Beijing samples were retested and they’re positive. This would be absolutely devastating for Kazakhstan and weightlifting overall. Oh and a bunch of Russians and Azerbaijanis got popped too, just another Olympic cycle I…

Connors played World Team Tennis and the French Open would not let him compete for many years because of it, including ‘74 when he won the other three, so he was effectively kept from the winning a calendar year slam. It actually seems to go against Connors otherwise rapacious habits of playing anything that paid…

Very good comparison. I don't want to belittle Court's greatness, but she won a pretty much Australian-only tournament for many many years and we're to believe that she has "24"? Borg competed there once, ONCE. The Italian Open and the Tour Finals were worth way more than some rinky dink tourney on the other side of…

Came here to agree on Navratilova, her career was ridiculous. Plus 9 Wimbledon singles titles, back when grass was actually fast and Wimbledon was the crown jewel of the tour, means a lot. Also, I'm glad were not mentioning Court because her numbers are absurdly inflated due to her winning a certain "major" 11 times.

Masturbation. It was masturbation right?

My favorite part of that play was when Ibaka, I believe it was him, was chasing him under the basket and Curry had a little hesitation dribble as if he was going for a layup, and Ibaka jumped to block a shot that curry had no intention of putting up, had him completely fooled. It's the little things.

True that. I think there's a deeper, not always said, misconception about jump shooting teams which clearly drives this narrative: 'jump-shooting/high-scoring team' = 'bad defensive team'. This would seem to make sense because, until recently, teams that were good at defense wanted to play slow as hell. That's not…

I think he means something akin to Charles' and others "jump shooting teams can't win championships" despite the fact that the Warriors did it last year, and the Spurs did it the year before them.

Bah humbug, everyone knows those belligerent Na'vi are the oppressors, and not those poor, industrious humans - #unobtainiumsnatchersmatter

You mean like placing the front wheel of a bicycle on a stool. Yes Duchamp was on my mind from today's final Jeopardy! question, so what.

If Arrieta were only leading Kershaw in ERA and not wins, he would suddenly care a whole lot less about win-loss records. The only thing that preempts his blind belief in that stat is anything Chicago, anything.

Kendrick's is mostly a technique thing, he really should snatch as much if not more than Vardanyan, then again Norik has very exemplary technique thanks to who he was taught by :).
