Please bridge those statements, that “he’s awesome”, and “he’s not even close to the worst guy in the history of the NHL, on or off the ice.” One of them is arguable, in a world with Gary Bettman and Eddie Shore and Harold Ballard and Chris Pronger and Radko Gudas. One of them is objectively flat wrong. That clip of…

Gabe, can we please not reference anything Sean Avery says or does, ever, and never give him any attention or clicks whatsoever, pretty please? Can we scrub that last link off this article? Because he is the fucking worst?

Neither a Texas Leaguer nor a Baltimore chop could the poor man find!

Yep, not at all surprising that the whole point was getting their 10%.

I could see why he would sign a $5M/yr deal to buy out his pre-arb and arb years. Giving three more is nuts.

On its face, I would take one year of this contract and keep my mouth shut. But I am not a professional athlete thus exist in a very different economy. These guys got jobbed. Or let themselves get jobbed. Or their agent did. I’m going to lay this on their agent. I hope if any other players are represented by same,…

The union needs to step in and look at this at some point. This extension is even worse for the players than Acuna’s was, do they have the same agent?

But there’s a case to be made that guys like Albies are signing these contracts *because* of the market that Keuchel and Kimbrel are sitting through right now. They’re taking less than they would have made on the open market 5 years ago to ensure that they don’t have to actually put up with the volatility of that…

I just wonder what his agent is even doing? Like, I know $35M is a lot of money, but Albies would be a steal at twice that.

He really should leverage all his failures and just host a late night sports management call in show where he promotes monogamy.

I can only speak for myself, but a company leveraging the emotional suffering of others to shill their product is pretty tiresome and repulsive.

Deadspin has been criticizing these tribute ads for a while: https://deadspin.com/a-more-honest-version-of-gatorades-derek-jeter-ad-1636414327

It’s not a terrible ad, but give me a break, “Budweiser can afford the production and airtime”. This isn’t a charitable donation of theirs. They ran this ad because the same unpleasant marketing people who approved flooding the airwaves with Dilly Dilly and Corn Syrup King had some meetings and spreadsheets and…

Hey, just a heads up, you compared a magnolia tree to a bud light commercial so you may want to check in with a doctor.

Once again the Alabama GOP candidate has spent much of his adult life courting 16 year olds

The latest at my gym was a guy completely naked and powdering himself from neck to toe, then busting out some karate moves for good measure.

The worst is walking into the locker room and placing your gym bag down only to realize you set it on top of a puddle of buttwater from an old guy that was just sitting there naked after showering.

I can’t comment on the men’s locker room as, you know, lady parts and all, but I was at the gym earlier today and I can’t understand why the Old Dudes just HANG OUT at the gym for hours and hours and hours. I get in and get out. I rode the bike today and there was an OD standing (not working) on a treadmill in front…

The only thing old dudes in locker rooms love more than roaming around naked is getting dressed in a totally fucked up order of operations.
