This is why the question of who’s the greatest of all time is unanswerable. Because Djokovic’s game is perfect for Nadal’s game; Nadal’s game is perfect for Fed’s game; and Fed’s game (in his prime, let’s say) was perfect for Djokovic’s is game. A rock-paper-scissors dynamic to be sure.

Ok. Your claim is essentially that “MAGA represents a racist ideology.” And you know what, I can’t really argue with that — maybe it’s true. I think there’s a lot of nuance there, but certainly for some MAGA supporters, there is a racist meaning behind it, so it’s at least true in part. Do you think the kids know…

There were no winners in that video, but the conscious attempts by people on the left to crucify these kids without making proper reference to everything that led up to it, show their biases, not the kids.

Man, you’re so good at writing about tennis.

“A real person walking among the gods.” This is why Murray has been my favorite of this era — he’s relatable in a way that Fed, Rafa and Nole aren’t.

I’ll always appreciate Murry for having a strong, smart grasp on the political/social side of the game, particularly when it came to women players.

This is great but no discussion of Murray is complete without noting what he did for women’s tennis. Constantly (and before it became “cool”) he campaigned for equal pay, for women to get equal time on the big courts at Wimbledon, called out fellow-players and reporters to the point of making things confrontational…

Thank you so much for writing this. It sums up just perfectly why I love this crabby motherfucker to bits.

Great piece on my favorite tennis player. Such a delightful asshole. Our asshole.

The funny thing is, while this seems like a premature retirement, historically 31 is old for a tennis player. It shows how much the game has changed this century. 

Shocked Murray is forced into retirement before del Potro too. 

This is sad news. Murray had many virtues as an athlete. I particularly appreciated his insistence that women’s tennis players receive equal treatment and attention.  

I’m glad you told him you were offended, and even if he didn’t listen, I hope your friend eventually realizes that retarded people deserve better than being compared to the Washington Wizard.

KD came to the Dubs to hoop at the highest level. With a healthy Steph, KD is ridiculously efficient at scoring and passing. When Steph is out, KD reverts to his OKC persona; he insists on either initiating the offense at the top of the key or posting up (i.e., he stops moving when he doesn’t have the ball), and goes…

The original version included Green calling Durant a “bitch” several times — disrespect that management said was too harsh to overlook.

You misspelled Hell.

Meeting for bagels does not a love story make.

Is it just me, or is this the dumbest shit ever to drop 22 days before one of the most important elections in our lifetimes? This does nothing. Her supporters will not support her any more than they already do. Her detractors don’t believe or care whether it’s true or not. All this does is gives Trump something to…

One thing missing here is teaching the kids to stand up and protect those who for some reason can’t protect themselves.

I work with rape victims. Last week a client came in to get assistance. She described the assault, paused at the end, and asked if I could be the one to share her story as needed because she just can’t do it again. She wept while she told me she couldn’t bear it. It felt like she was being assaulted all over again.
