I have to log off for a bit, sir, but allow me to double down before I split. 

He got hit with a ball, big woop. If you think his father, Roger Maris, didn’t go through things like this when he was chasing the ghost of the great Bondsbino, you don’t know baseball history. Robin Williams made a movie about it called, 73* (because it happened in 1973 and he needed to hit 73 big dongers to set a…

The only reason this exists is to squash the hardware vulnerability that lets people hack the shit out of it.

He was 11 years old in that photograph.

I’m not sure how you can say that a show that’s been running for nine years “isn’t really working out.”

I think this trade could be fascinating for what it does to Paul’s BBQ. He’s from the Carolina’s and playing for Wake Forest, so he’s already adept at pulled pork, vinegar and/or mustard sauces.

I am a Rockets fan. I will miss Chris Paul. A lot. I really enjoyed having him on the team and in the city. He’s a legitimately good dude. However, it’s not just his age and the inevitable decline that comes with it (which is a big deal) but it’s his ability to stay healthy. In the last three years he’s played 60+…

In a sports that’s full of copycats, this is certainly a eunuch new approach to motivating a team.

Well duh - he wrote the Tweet while falling but used a scheduler to release it after he landed at terminal velocity.

Considering the source, were you expecting anything else?

...and would you have been disappointed if that’s what you got?

As someone who hasn’t picked up a Switch yet, I’d be down to pick this up until I get the normal model later. Because Breath of the Wild, and the fact that my PS4 and PC already eat up space next to my tv.

I’ve designed charts and graphs for sports analytics and these guys’ use of radar plots is extremely sketchy. It is fun to use visualizations to break out of the boring stat table paradigm for data, and a properly designed chart like this *could* be beautiful and descriptive. But you’d need to start by being able to…

It seems like Carlos Cordeiro misprounces her name until you realize this dude wrote his speech.  

This....seems like a weirdly plausible scenario :(

If somebody stole it they probably opened it at home, realized it was some dumb card and just tossed it in disgust.

Hate to be the contrarian here, but I don’t think he controls the defense with his communication and does not tell his PGs what plays to run by seeing the flow of the game and who needs the shots nor do I think there’s a reason why he’s always atop the plus minus of his team. It’s the big things,and not screening to…

I recognize that the only way I’d place second in a cycling race is if there are only two people racing, but I do not understand why so many cyclists pull a DeSean Jackson like that. I don’t even finish my McDonald’s fries without watching over my shoulder for my wife to come and steal the big ones I save for last.

I would challenge this sentiment having played college soccer in one of the toughest conferences in the country. 2 of the 4 years I played, the Big West had a team in the National Championship game. UC Santa Barbara was that team. I can absolutely tell you that college soccer is the most brutal form of soccer played…

For Christ’s sake, I’m so tired of soccer know it alls dumping on the “NCAA model.” If the goal is “winning a title every four years while exploiting thousands of young people and leaving all but the most talented to rot” is the goal, then sure, the NCAA model sucks. But if the goal is “encourage millions of people to…

I’ll wait until it’s selling for half-off.
