When Jen Kirkman reneged on her story and specifically said it was not Louis, I believed her. Since she was someone named on record, that was tho only real information any of us had. Then Jez was writing posts that were just like, “Email us if you have heard anything about Louis C.K. being sexually inappropriate,” and…

Yeah. This is the part that doesn’t sit well with me about this article. I never assume a victim is lying, but I need a victim before I can make any assumptions. I feel like this article paints the commentariat as sexual assault apologists which is mostly disingenuous.

I’m not defending myself. But it IS on the person who did it, not on commenters who didn’t have all the information that the writers had. I believed Kirkman. She obviously lied, I wish I hadn’t assumed she was telling the truth. Hindsight is 20/20.

I will not condemn a man on rumor alone.

This sucks for kids everyone who has a job, a life, or any other reason they can’t stay up well past midnight everyone who doesn’t live in the Pacific, Alaskan, or Hawaiian/Aleutian Time Zone.

The only ‘ballpark’ HR that got hit was Correa’s, which is still amazing he hit it 320+ ft THAT high. Everything else is probably a HR at alot of stadiums with where they were hit. A big gap park probably holds Bellinger’s shot.

From The Hollywood Reporter, noting that Game 5 easily beat Sunday Night Football:

They actually scored way, way more runs on the road than they did at home.

WTF man, you can’t stop before the game is over AND call in sick AND complain about being tired. You get 2 of 3, max.

It felt like this after LA tied it up at 12. My general health and ability to make it to work this morning would like to thank Alex Bregman for ending it!

Completely agree actually. I read an article a few months back talking about how this season every at bat basically has two outcomes- a strikeout or a home run. The shift in the types of hits we see has been incredibly dramatic- partially due to the balls, but also because all the advanced metrics have resulted in…

Meh, you can’t blame it entirely on the small confines of the Juice Box. If that were the case, the Astros would have scored the most runs in the majors.

13-12, some cranky people around the office this morning.

This is a quantitative description of the swingiest games in World Series history. Sure, it sounds wordsy, but take that for what it’s worth: It’s saying that Game 2 was the swingiest game ever in 115+ years, then Game 5 out-swung that. That’s pretty awesome, even if you had to parse an extra clause or two to figure…

In the name of purity, at least they got rid of that hill to die on in center.

Every f*cking year I get carpal tunnel syndrome from having to scroll down so much.

I’ve been reading these stories for almost three hours now and I’m afraid to close the page and go to bed because I don’t want to start fresh tomorrow. I guess I can leave my laptop on and the site open?

I had a friend who was mugged while we were studying abroad. She had a scarf stuffed in the top of her purse and when the mugger was going thru her purse, he kept pulling out the scarf. Like total-magician pulling a handkerchief out of his hat style. He got so frustrated that he threw her bag down and walked away.

Yep. Or tell a story, that’s another one.

i am slowly making america's idea of beauty in my own image.
