It is astonishing how poorly-written this shit is. Even Body-Building Boy. I especially love the ones questioning Deaspin writers’ intelligence — those ones seem particularly rife with poor grammar, bad spelling, and dismal punctuation. Trump voters are nearly universally dumb, and they continue to prove it every damn…

I want to buy it right now, and I’ve never even owned a Subaru

It’s a reach-around PR tactic. My guess is that the PR person for Google sent a “tip” to Tom, trying to make it look organic, when in fact it is a clever but not-clever-enough tactic aimed at getting Deadspin to write about a new feature on Youtube (by either screen capturing an actual social media post from Durant…

I’m a PR guy, and I know better than to send Deadspin anything other than tips on rugby injuries.

For a guy who literally couldn’t get off the floor because of a ruined back a few years ago, this is damned good

My one enduring image of his time as a Giant would be a 280-foot fly ball to right field.

I read, “Billy Lynn’s Long Halftime Walk” as a bit of a caricature of Jerry Jones, only to find it to be a timid reflection of what a mammoth asshole he really is.

We call that one the Hail Morty

That’s horrific. Actually, though...playing club rugby in college, I got pummeled and broke my back. No medical personnel at all on the field. Got (literally) dragged off the field. A teammate’s brother’s girlfriend managed to drive her car onto the sideline, four spectators loaded me into her sedan, and she drove me…

Serious reply here, too. I’ve loved your writing for years. Now that you’ve awakened, I like it even more

Hush up before I send April over there to quiet you down in person.

I broke a transverse process (just one) on a play almost identical in a collegiate rugby match. See how composed Carr is on the video? Yeah, not me. I’ve put a lot of miles, a lot of injuries on my body, but absolutely nothing compared to a broken back. I screamed like a bitch and rolled around and carried on until…

Wait...they all seem to have the same viewpoint. If it’s a news channel, wouldn’t they want some more balanced opinions? It’d be more fair, I think.

The Karz4Kids jingle is the auditory equivalent of crucifixion. It is so ubiquitous on the radio here in the SF Bay Area that I have trained myself to stab the radio off button in less than five notes.

Brooks-Range Down Sweater. Serious performance functionality, plus it looks great. 800 fill down that’s hydrophobic (with a DWR finish) so even a light rain won’t ruin the loft and warmth. http://www.brooks-range.com/product-p/6026.htm

How provincial is the GAA, you ask? After 11 years of high level rugby and with 9 years of baseball under my belt, I resolved to play hurling here in San Francisco. Went out to a team’s first practice of the year, introduced myself, and asked if I could join up and learn the game. I got a straight “No” — zip. Nada.…

You’re confusing “assault” with “battery.” You should check out the distinction.

Heart-breaking, and a terrific read. Thanks and here’s hoping you find healing.

That is a very good horse. Needs some of those Conti tires though. Uh, horseshoes.
