What’s your point? You were still incredibly unprofessional and childish.

Wow, you just lost a lot of credibility, Jia. Responding to an opposing opinion in that way, even over something as benign as the title of your article, does far more damage to you as a writer than to the one who posted the comment. Think about it, now people aren’t thinking about the subject of your article, they are…

Hey Jia. Great article. Now try evolving past Grade 4 recess talk when someone is critical over your choice of a fucking title.

we can’t just have an honest conversation about it

So your subject said it was ok? That diesn’t make your statement any more professional. Great article and all I found it quite engrossing but your response is completely unprofessional. With that said I should probably get back to work.

Wow! Sore subject for everyone I guess. Which is legit, this shit really matters (reproductive rights that is.) Did anyone read her replies? I didn’t think she sounded like a troll and it seems to have been a misunderstanding. If my (and a load of people’s ) initial interpretation of her comment had been right I’d…

ok. maybe you think this person doesn’t have a point. but you are not being the thing you wish they were. best of luck.

the woman literally emailed me right after the story went up to say “i’m glad you told that commenter to fuck off”

The headline IS clickbait. There’s about 72 thousand other titles you could have used. I had the same reaction and wanted to know why so I read it.

Stay classy Gia!! It’s a clickbait headline. Jezebel logic 101: It’s OK to kill innocent babies! It’s horrific to execute cold blooded murderers!

Well if the subject of a news article you wrote says so, then it has to be right.

That is your response to a very fair comment. Do you expect to be taken serious?

eeeeeeeeasy! even I see the title being misunderstood so chill out ffs.

fuck off

We’re all in this together.

Probably my least favorite thing about Deadspin is when its writers come up with nonsense replies that are completely worthless and would get zero stars if it came from a gray like me, yet they end up with multiple times more stars than the OP they’re replying to who made a valid (usually contrarian) point.

Deadspin…

I was going to say, MJ and Jim Brown existed, right?

It’s not about taking away his best skill, it’s about what else you can provide when your shot fades. This happens with anybody who’s played basketball, sometimes your shot’s just not hitting, so you have to be able to do other things. The thing about Curry is that all the other aspects of his game are predicated on…

I have to say I agree with a lot of what you are writing on this thread, but I think the point that someone else was trying to make (and with your example) is that MJ was better (and actually the best) at a lot more things then Curry is. If MJ had not developed that turn around jumper, he would have developed…

You gotta stop, bro. It's officially aginst the law to say anything negative about Steph Curry, or critique his game in any way.
