Would Deadspin ever have a public editor and who should the first one be?

I listen to the Pod Save America crew, but I’ve kind of given up on them ever since Lovett had Antonio Villaraigosa on his show. That guy used his notoriety as former LA mayor to take a big paycheck from Herbalife, a pyramid scheme that has extracted millions of dollars from Latino communities. He’s made money of…

Is this proof of his genius or the media’s idiocy?

That tan suit was pretty bad.

I was just about to recommend this! Love the stuff.

This reminds me of Simmons’ analysis of when Steve Ballmer bought the Clippers. He discussed it with Ramona Shelburne on his old ESPN podcast and it was so frustrating to listen to how empty their ideas were. The two of them had this totally weird, blind deference to Billionaire Tech Mogul Man. They just assumed his…

The “I work with some chef guy” is extremely valuable commodity in the food world when you’re looking for investors and selling yourself to the media. People go and work for free for world renowned chefs in what’s a called “stage” just to say they did. The high end of the industry, these super expensive tasting menus,…

He’s definitely getting better at podcasting. But he’s still very much a grumpy old man in a young man’s body and his sense of humor can be lacking b/c of it.

So, when does Silver start “introducing” people to the Sacramento front office, a la Colangelo in Philly?

There was a similar measure in Santa Monica on the November Ballot, which thankfully failed, even though the people supporting it seemed to have a lot of enthusiasm on their side. Hopefully the rest of the region will follow a similar path and knock this one down.

I believe it was on the Zach Lowe podcast where I heard someone offer this theory. When you’re Coach Jackson and with the players everyday and building a more solid foundation for your relationship, you can play the little media-driven motivation games that he likes so much, because there’s enough of a relationship to…

You’re not able to stop him right now, but we’ve got to keep the faith that if we keep gathering people locally, we can start turning districts from Red to Blue or from Blue to Bluer. We’re going to lose a lot the next two years. So it’ll be key to find small victories during that time, even if it’s just on a local…

I thought that at first too, but as I’ve gotten more engaged on the local level, I see that there are a lot of Dems that ain’t doing shit. I talk to friends in hard left blue districts across the country (Seattle, LA, Brooklyn) and I noticed many of them send their kids to private schools, because public school…

Yeah, those Asian jokes aren’t great, they definitely made me uncomfortable.

It can be a toxic mixture of both.

Yeah, he’s just Luke Cuckly, amirite? High fives!

Seeing as how celebrity matters, I put forward Jon Stewart.

What happened to the podcast, you lazy bastards?

I don’t watch men’s college basketball anymore either.

It’s true about Playboy. We made our intern call. http://www.playboy.com/articles/dale-…
