This is both true and not the point. I’m well aware that Bayless, Cowherd, and Whitlock get high ratings and high readership. I’m just depressed that that is the case, given how all of them are either a) shameless idiots, b) cynically pandering to the worst impulses of the lowest common denominator, or c) both.

“one could read the departures of Mike Tirico, Skip Bayless, Bill Simmons, Colin Cowherd, Robert Flores, and Jason Whitlock, among others, as evidence of a talent exodus”

or one could...uh...not do that, at least for the even-numbered ones in the group.

Who wants to rig Mutombo?

Two snake-heads and a new wife, but otherwise yeah.

If they keep getting this butthurt they’ll need to put on their Medicine ass Hats.

Maybe? It has nothing to do with the show, and Dance With Dragons came out in 2011. But if I can edit the comment (can’t right now for some reason) I’ll add one.

As much as people complain about these kids in the books, Dorne needs Arianne and Quentyn or the whole Martell plan makes no god damn sense.

Hypothetical question: If he were somehow killed by the Sand Snakes, would that make up for the ridiculous botching of the Dornish storylines?

If Bran doesn’t stop taking out his aggression by possessing Odor this way he runs the risk of turning into Euron.

I feel like “E Pluribus Unum” is a more appropriate slogan for Long Island Iced Tea.

Burke would definitely not be hovering over Treliving’s shoulder. Hovering in the vicinity of his armpit maybe.

Who watches Game of Thrones and Silicon Valley and not Veep? Not that GoT and Silicon Valley aren’t great shows, they certainly are*...but Veep is amazing!

As a Giants fan, I am very on board with this idea. In fact, I can already smell the blood.

Nope, I was just being an idiot on purpose. Thanks for being an impeccable straight man though.

I don’t, that’s why I asked when you do.

When do you use a hairbrush?

Just wanted to say nicely done to the person who came up with the “Dreaded Laremy” tag. I and my four garbage sons appreciated it a lot.
