Phoenix is a great city. It’s ruined by the suburbs like Peoria, Goodyear, Chandler and Mesa.

Density can be extremely difficult to achieve. Increasing density also means having adequate water supply, electricity, mass transit, sewage systems, school districts/classrooms, etc. One of the benefits of sprawl is that all of the above scales linearly with the sprawl. It’s not easy to add a new sewage system for 3x…

Yeah, well I've been reading Deadspin longer than you've been posting here. And I never personally insulted you. So how about you show some class and keep it respectful.

This is a huge free agent signing, I can’t wait to read Zach Lowe’s analysis.

Dude..... no. Just no. There’s such a thing as TOO FAR. I’m still chuckling, but god damn, that is brutal, my friend. I’ve got my coworkers looking at me like I’m crazy laughing at this. We must have the same sick and twisted sense of humor. Reluctant +1 to you you absolute bastard, and all the internets to you.....…

Someone Draymond’s size blowing a .1 is definitely more than a beer and a half. He’d be closer to .02 drinking 2 beers in under an hour. Check any chart or calculator online:

The real reason its not comparable is that Durant left a great team that lost to the team he left for. Up 3-1 nonetheless. He had a top 5 player beside him and very good roster that actually just improved. He left what would universally be considered one of the best 4 teams in the league to go to THE best team who had…

Hell, even when Lebron got hammered for starting this trend, at least he was going elsewhere to make another team his team. KD is going to GS to be quite possibly 3rd fiddle.

The “can’t beat ‘em join ‘em” thing isn’t being hammered enough. I’ve always, always rooted for Durant and I just can’t any more, because when James Harrison talks about participation trophies and shit, this should be Exhibit A. Isn’t this supposed to be about competition at some point? Is the message we want to send…

This is a pedantic take, at best. OF COURSE politics is relatable to just about everything in some way. Even though the tweets you mention have some connection to larger political issues, I would never call them “political” tweets—not even close. I take Schefter’s view as being against actively engaging in political…

the comment i was replying to expressed regret the Celtics did not trade for him. context, man. context.

Don’t flatter yourself. I didn’t even notice that you were the same person I had talked to elsewhere. All I saw was the comment.

No. The average annual income of a person in Afghanistan is $1,100, so you’re absurdly wealthy by those standards too. It’s all relative. Everyone is aware of that without the need to call it out every time sports salaries come up.

Black people don't tip. I like to think that I'm not a racist and I certainly haven't had any problems with people of any race, but I've been a server, bartender and a delivery boy in college and that's just the way it is. Even hiding behind a computer monitor I feel like a Klan wizard saying it, but I swear to god…
