This is insane and insanely difficult. The sheer physics of it—to have all of your mass and momentum going (airborne) in one direction and to be able to swing with enough force to get the ball to go all the way back over the net in the other direction...it’s crazy.

they have giannis, a ROY in brogdan who should be pretty good, and i wouldn’t write off middleton either. dont think its inconceivable they beat out washington or toronto and who knows what happens with boston now. not sure it will happen, but i assuredly do not think the Bucks Are Bad.

Because it’s week 6, and one guy has been practicing their offense for multiple years. Oh, and because Kap is an average QB at best at this point in his career, even if he was on a team whose offense he knew.

I really, really hope Trump responds. Or dies. Whatever.

1. You have shitty friends

pretty sure that’s a Saturn

Donald Trump and Anthony Davis have very little to do with this IMO.

If you were more diverse in your choice of video entertainment, you’ll find that there are plenty of black guys inside cougars.

The problem is cops treating black people like shit, not white people doing it. Institutional, not societal racism. Try to keep up.

Can I get a Deadspin HoF ballot for Dale Hansen and only Dale Hansen?

In 2009 the NFL started receiving millions of dollars from the US Military in exchange for constantly staging patriotic displays and promoting the military. That is when they started having the teams come out for the anthem. Plenty of fans still spend the anthem buying beers or using the bathroom. The fact that the…

Good take from Bob Costas:

Had this convo on twitter earlier.

As myself and numerous other vets have pointed out, our oath is “to support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic.” It has nothing to do with flag, or the National Anthem, or public fucking sporting events. People who want to make this “about the troops” are…

In case anyone’s gearing up to say that Maxwell doesn’t respect the troops, here’s a quote by him from 2015:

shit, when did football get taken off the list of sports? did it take chess, bowling, and poker with it?

Jesus, link the whole quote from Obama if you’re going to pretend there’s any similarity and tone here:

“We could, obviously, destroy North Korea with our arsenals. But aside from the humanitarian costs of that, they are right next door to our vital ally, Republic of Korea . . . One of the things that we have been doing is spending a lot more time positioning our missile defence systems, so that even as we try to…

Not angry at all. Just disappointed in a fellow American who apparently can’t see through the orange clown’s bluster. What you’re quoting is a simple statement of fact, but it was not delivered as a threat. It was not said to intimidate or threaten during a speech on a world stage delivered by an incompetent leader…
