I went to a Jim Gaffigan show tonight, and I am laughing harder at these comments

I'm assuming the double post was on purpose. +1

I suspect both of these maps would look much different if "the meteor" was presented as a third option.

Reading that Facebook discussion really pisses me off. I mean, why the fuck does Deadspin have a Facebook page?

In the money of an American with the average cost of living. So for example, the overall cost of living in Oklahoma City is 86% of the national average — the average American pays say $1 for an apple, but people in Oklahoma City pay $0.86 for that apple. So to that $338 face price for a lower level seat to a citizen…

Adjusted for cost of living. The impetus for adjustment is that folks living in a certain city are ostensibly being paid according to how much it costs to live there, so you can't really compare Oklahoma City and New York straight up. A ticket to a Thunder game is a lot more expensive to a person living in OKC than a…

We believe the head coach of the Cleveland Browns to be a very attractive position.

Mine is "Hey Joe," but admitting that in public makes you look like a psychopath. Good thing this is only the Internet.

Along these lines is the "You call and it's gonna be all over, baby" of Scotty Nguyen in one of the WSOP main events in 90s, which his opponent called to announce that he was playing the board.

In the sports world, the situation you're describing is criminal. In the real world, that guy's profit may have gone to something far worthier than the opportunity of a handful of fans to see a live World Series game. I don't really consider it a tragedy that fans lose out sometimes, as long as they're not losing to…

This is a great point. I think it's totally valid that some of the value of the ticket be taken away from the billionaire owners given how much they fleece taxpayers to build their cash cow stadiums. However, that value does not necessarily need to be realized by the fans that are attending the game. If selling…

The reason I started this argument was to challenge the mostly stupid assumption that the live entertainment sought by NFL fans is some sort of noble pursuit that should be shielded from the market forces that determine the prices for every other good and service in our economy. Selling tickets in the secondary market…

Who's the dick, the dick who sells the ticket for $1000, or the dick who pays that much to go to a fucking football game? No one is entitled to pay the artificially low face value of a ticket to attend an NFL playoff game just because they're a really big fan.

I never understood what makes people jackasses for charging the real worth of tickets.

I'm sure it will get lost in the Brady v. Manning hype leading up to the AFC Championship game, but Denver's defense just held the NFL's third ranked offense in DVOA scoreless for three-plus quarters. And New England's offense is doing its best old school Steelers impression. I'm really looking forward to this game…

I hope the comparison was awestruck gushing at Kordell's 56% career pass completion rate.

Cannot WAIT to see how Simmons tries to make himself a part of this "story."

I'm surprised this doesn't happen more often. When the ball is at the half-yard line, there is absolutely no downside to doing what Brooks did here aside from the couple inches the refs move the ball toward the goal line.

Nice piece. Thanks Sean and Ray (can I call you Ray?).
