You know you have a shitty program and coach when I’m rooting for the team that literally killed a kid this year to beat you.

I’m using all 5 of my kinja accounts to vote for Bryan Colangelo.

This is like when Fox News was agog over the fact that poor people have microwaves and refrigerators.

Yet when I’m stuck in the same job for 16 years while my peers climb the ladder to management I’m supposed to feel shame.

Drafted in the same year as his coach smh. 

LeBron passed Wilt at #5 on the all-time scoring list, which is cool until you realize Wilt has him beat 20,000 to high school sweetheart.

There are some surprisingly shallow bowls out there, even for us average-sized fellers! And let me tell you what, sitting down on a public toilet to discover the unexpected sensation of cold damp porcelain on your dangly bits is... profoundly dismaying.

There’s a very strong Biblical argument for this, in fact. And indeed, we must view

Lovable super fan??

I hate him.

does it seem odd that Cleveland very well may end up with the next LeBron 

I’ve never seen 280 pounds glide before, this is nuts

I think it’s just an extension of the “champions or bust” mentality that all sports have run into. Merely being good isn’t cutting it any more. Winning 50 games and being a 4th seed in the NBA, but with no obvious championship upside, is viewed as being not that much better than losing 50 and hoping the ping pong

And a truly classic pearl-clutching performance by Joe Buck.

Man, fuck Buck and Aikman for not getting the reference.
