Then let’s go, meteor! (I know, this rooting interest ignores that all involved parties are no longer in the same physical location, it’s a...smart meteor, yeah, that’s it)

I don’t know why Kinja is yet again not letting me see a post I can see in the notifications, but to Lhor, who said they hope I don’t have a daughter based on what I said in this post: not only do I have a 3-year old daughter, but I’m pretty sure she’s already better at reading comprehension than your stupid fucking

I’m choosing not to believe a single goddamn word from a single person even tangentially involved in this.

She’s terrific. I first remember her when she was following the Cliff Alexander/Illinois/Kansas recruiting saga. Excellent reporter and interviewer.

You don’t think JD could beat Diddy?

You’re saying this like I’m a fan of R. Kelly and don’t want to be reminded of it. I thought his music was creepy and terrible well before I knew he was a monster.

Of course I’ve heard of her, she’s an Illinois alum and used to be an Illini beat reporter. (In fact, she and I have something in common: our dads were both Illini running backs.)

What this has to do with my aversion to any kind of ESPN studio show except I guess “College Gameday,” I’m unsure. 

Oh.

I don’t think it matters who sits in those chairs. They’re supposed to say wacky things that get the attention of morons on Twitter, not do things like, you know, “astute basketball analysis” or “say literally anything in the world that makes any sense.”

They made a Barry Bonds documentary titled “Muhammad Ali?” That’s weird as fuck.

Maybe someone should get her, you know, a glass of water!

At that large of a sample size, accounting for 15% of the deaths when you’re only 12% of the population is pretty significant.

I’m an unabashed RTJ stan, in no small part because they espouse many of the same beliefs I have. But Killer Mike, as much as I love the dude and appreciate his activism, has had his share of high-profile fuckups in the political arena. And that’s someone who is quite arguably more tuned in and informed than “us

Sorry if I was a little too harsh, but like I said, it’s out of love. Just don’t want bad-faith dipshits to use things like that as ammo.

I’ll go ahead and indulge a troll today.

Also, while I doubt the percentages have changed significantly, they’re using a source that RIGHT THERE AT THE TOP OF THE PAGE tells you they haven’t been gathering data for over 6 months.

Does anyone know what the hell is going on with Minaj?

The ire was understandable amid a pandemic that has to date claimed the lives of over 667,000 Americans, most of them Black, according to data collected as of March 2021.
