I’m not typically one to cast aspersions on people I don’t know, but if Dan Dakich’s family member is dealing with chronic work-related injuries, has earned $100 million in the last seven years, and has a degree in architectural design from Stanford, then he’s an idiot for continuing to show up every day at the steel…

The Major sport that’s hardest on your body, is far and away the worst for your brain (and long term risks), but pays far and away the least and guarantees nothing in contracts (and has a history of fucking over it’s retirees) is having a problem with players walking away from the game.

If there was a young man in literally any other profession who made $100 million before he was 30 and decided to retire, he would be lauded. The Wall Street Journal would write thousands of words of wankery praising his acumen and smarts and god bless America.

I always refer to him as Handjob Bob but "Two Tugs" is pretty great too.

I know I should stick to sports but I enjoy talking about handjobbers.

I would argue that for nearly this entire country’s history race has been the primary organizing principle around which political factions have formed.  

Hmm, I wonder who benefits from making “is it OK to be racist?” a political issue? Could it be the rich network executives that want a guy in power whose electoral appeal is basically “it’s OK to be racist”? No, of course not. What do they stand to gain? Oh, tax cuts? Huh.

Give me news hat dog before Stephen A Smith anyday

It’s about time for those Fox football robots to branch out

Why have people reporters at all? Have a dog in a news hat with sub captions or some sort of sports news robot. 

The reminder went out Friday to all employees, including Le Batard, according to an ESPN employee who spoke on condition of anonymity Saturday because the person was not authorized to speak publicly about personnel matters.
