The thing is, bad tweets aside, if you look at 538's main page for this election, it’s broken down in about 19 different ways. Some show Clinton clearly winning, some show Trump upsetting her and some show it as a dead heat.

I was just thinking the same thing. If the media actually covered Trump and Clinton factually, we wouldn’t have a dead heat. The media loves the sensationalism, and goes out of its way to create it.

the reason Silver is getting increasingly pissy about this has a lot to do with his chief rival, Sam Wang, who has pointed out that, statistically, this race is the single most stable race in recorded history, hovering nationally around Hillary +4% outside of the two-week period after both conventions.

Nate has clearly gotten sensitive about his model. I think the questions are fair, when you consider how Silver did in the primaries (including the fact that he whiffed on a couple of Democratic primaries in addition to the Trump thing), and the fact that he moved his operations to ESPN, which would cause a cynic to…

Arnold Palmer died in Pittsburgh, Pa. today, according to Golfweek. He was +15.

Ah shit, I think I forgot to register to volt.

Literally shut the fuck up about this bullshit.

Vin Scully called a game that Connie Mack managed.

It’s not bad enough that Lions fans have to be subjected to such a terrible product on the field.

This is fucking flagrant disrespect by the NCAA toward our National Anthem. The NCAA hasn’t just canceled these events in North Carolina, they’ve canceled the playing of the National Anthem at these events in North Carolina as well. I’m not a member of the military but that is insanely hurtful to the many members of…

If you throw in the Lions then Eastern Michigan isn’t even the best team at losing in eastern Michigan.

Is it crazy to think that if he made the catch and then trotted out of bounds at that spot, he’d be criticized for not trying to get a few more yards when Bailey misses the 60+ yard FG?

There’s a claws in Hamilton’s contract that allows this.

If he hollers, let him go, Lewis.

I automatically read the title with a Jim Ross voice inside my head.

If it were me I would’ve vacated all of Bama’s national championships …

Once again Patrick you buried the lead. Panthers are the best undefeated team in the NFL right now.

These are two good baseball men. I like the way they baseball.
