Needless to say, thank fucking God all he did was post that image.

Jeff Reinebold on Sky Sports made a great point: if the Saints have a timeoue left before that last play, they get their prevent D personnel on & remind everyone to bring down receiver inbounds, etc. Instead, a rookie safety makes a mistake. But the Saints lost just as much because of Payton’s dumb replay challenges…

Atari Bigby, we hardly knew ye.

I don’t have kids either, so I personally haven’t had a kid who wanted more than anything to compete in [whatever sport]. However, I have been such a kid. All I thought about when I was 5, 6, 7, or so was playing soccer, baseball, football, etc. If my parents had stopped me from playing AYSO, or Little League, or…

Lastly, I don’t think any person would have chosen Hillary as a paragon of virtue and human decency.

Can’t help thinking back to July 20th (emphasis mine):

Jeez, you guys really enjoy talking about dong slapping. Not a judgment, just an observation.

I did see the Mitch Williams posts they pulled down, and your description of them as unverified gossip is inaccurate. They incident(s) they described were confirmed by multiple sources, and there was some video evidence as well.

Not only did she make the shitty “cowards” & etc. comment, but after everyone raked her over the coals for it she kept digging:

Nah, not dumber than Santiago Casilla’s balk-off:

Look, all I’m saying is that when I grew up in Palo Alto my friends and I saw the movie Chopping Mall, and we heeded its moral lessons.

some might even argue it’s taken steps backwards.

I think that was Icelandic for “DO YOU BELIEVE IN ELVES? YES!!!”

Three other disreputable white dudes… well, if that doesn’t bring in the women, Latino, and African-American voters what the hell will?

Here, watch the multiple angles of the replay. It gives a more complete picture of the curve and spin he had to put on the ball, and the accuracy it took to hit that spot on the inside of the far post where the goalkeeper couldn’t knock it away.

Baylor’s report is fraudulent in that it calls itself a report, yet does not actually impart any information. But hey, I only read the article once so maybe I’m not up to your level of nuance.

Yes, Amen. I was thinking about this the other night as I watched an ESPN baseball broadcast and noticed again that IMO Jessica Mendoza is a damn good color commentator. She’s smart, she’s knowledgeable, and she’s engaging to listen to, and has a good rapport with Dan Shulman and Aaron Boone in the booth. I have only…

Is this whole MLB changing the strike zone thing for real, or was it just an idea somebody floated at a meeting that’s been blown out of proportion?

I think we’ve all heard far worse. As one who has sung the (U.S.) national anthem at open-air sporting venues before, I can’t help giving the singer the benefit of the doubt in most situations like these. Being able to hear yourself—not to mention any pre-recorded accompaniment—is very often a big challenge, even if…

I’m on my 3rd day stuck at home sick; yesterday I passed some time by refuting Schilling’s stated reasons for voting for Trump. Perhaps unsurprisingly, 24 hours later he’s still letting my comment languish in the moderation queue. So here it is:
