I think it mostly comes down to what battles you want to fight. I mean, sure, if the consensus was that eating boogers is a horribly dangerous thing for a child’s health, then I’d go all-out and make sure they don’t eat boogers! But it isn’t that, and fighting with them about it is just a stressor with no real benefit.

100% not even close.

Is it too early to say that the Celtics/Cavs trade was actually, somehow, in some miraculous way (for those of us that aren’t fans of either team), a lose/lose deal?

Read this in the voice of Dwight Shrute and it was *chef’s kiss*

A few years ago there was a similarly embarrassing instance of some idiot in a BMW, if memory serves, suddenly losing control and ripping across a median. The guy found out that the video was, of course, posted all over the internet, and started trying to defend himself, and cold tires + 1.5 PSI were his excuses.

Can you *please* have Jim Cooke do some ProSet-style drawings of you guys for the next one of these?

As another Lions fan that was heavily into this era of sports cards as a child, one thing that always stood out for me was that, in spite of their on-field futility, the Lions of the late ‘80s through mid-’90s always managed to have some good-ass action shots on their cards.

I have zero inside information about Tom Izzo, but as any sports fan in the area knows, there is at least some mythology (how much truth is behind it, none of us chuds can say) about Izzo’s intensity with his players on the court belying the way he treats them behind the scenes.

I love Dischord Records as much as anyone, but if we’re gonna nominate a DC punk fan for POTUS, Beto ain’t it.

How do you win elections? By nominating uninspiring candidates with support for half-measures?

Mike gettin’ that trapezoid head.

Yeah. We bought this mattress last year and went through the same thing. So many brands. If you spend just a few minutes Googling you will find a dozen websites and YouTube channels that review these things. It’s obviously difficult to tell who takes ad money from these companies and who doesn’t.

I just. I love this series.

After a tough group and the Bayern draw, it’s nice to see Liverpool get an ostensibly easier draw for this round. Perhaps, more than the CL itself, this is nice because City’s got a much busier and tougher schedule over the next six weeks. City have three games against Spurs, one against United, and an extra Cup game,…

Doesn’t take anything away from the overall accuracy of this analysis, but to Mane’s credit, I think he’s had his best off-the-ball season to date, and has generally gotten better in that regard as the season has gone on. I admit I have no stats to back this up, but the eyeball test has seen Mane making a lot of…

I mean, shit, I am fully on the Bring Stevie Y. Home bandwagon as a Wings fan. But I have to begrudgingly defend Holland a bit on a few points:

As a fellow Pistons fan, this is really just the worst long-term news. The problem with the Pistons doing this every damn year is that they are the polar opposite of the Spurs or the Warriors — they continue to pick in the middle of the draft order and always manage to miss the guys that end up being legitimately good…

Love how 90% of the replies to this are, “Excuse me sir, but I have a socket wrench welded to my head and I already knew that high-mileage cars can be good! It’s definitely not my fault for wasting time reading a blog post about something I already knew!”

Short-ish explanation (and note that this pretty much all applies exactly to Machado, as well):
