Tovarisch is a smart man.

My favorite part was the dick-kick at about the :50 mark... He really gets in there with his foot before the puntee crumples under the stcrum.

I wonder if that keeper felt like I do when playing FIFA and watching a play build that I'm powerless to stop because I yanked a defender out of position or something... Probably not, though.

He definitely got some wrist as some other angles show, but it was also clearly AFTER he makes contact with the ball. Either way, I’d have been ok with a blown call, considering how atrocious the officiating was... Remember, Baynes got T’d up for basically existing earlier in the game.

I initially swore the same thing up and down. I saw it in real time and it sure looked like Timmy whacked Harden on the arm pretty hard... Then I saw the slo-mo replayed and screen grabs this morning and it is undeniable that he makes contact with the ball first and redirects it before making any contact with Harden’s…

This. All of this. Call me sensitive and I know I may be poking a wasp’s nest, but McCaskill’s response seems rife with racial undertones...

The reaction in late night talk radio has been disappointing, if not predictable. Tiptoeing REAL close to what some might consider racist-ass shit.

Unless you personally know Beyoncé (and maybe you do), this whole piece seems strange... We get it and all agree, Chris Brown suuuuuuuucks... But why is Beyoncé so much higher up in the moral hierarchy that she seems beyond reproach or beyond making poor decisions? Isn't this the lady who did little to encourage a…

Umm... Because it’s mainly used when describing non-white folks who, much to the surprises of the individual using the phrase, seem to have a standard grasp on the English language. It’s not racist, per se... But when it’s seldom used to describe the oratory skills of white individuals, it’s definitely one of those…

"That's good news for armed robbers. In my case, there is a New York Post article about me from 2003 that I particularly dislike; having published 62 pieces in 2014, I have pushed it from the first page of my Google results to the fourth. One day I hope to push it off a cliff."

After reading about that wackadoo website, I immediately performed a Google images search to catch a glimpse of Steph Curry rocking his UA Jesus kicks... And the collective consciousness of humanity was bit dumber for it.

Oh lawd! Another law&order expert on evidence... "It's circumstantial, at best!" We, as a society, have sent plenty of folks up the river based solely on circumstantial evidence and I feel like countless poor souls have been trolled for attempting this classic line. Furthermore, isn't your proffered fact of her "being…

It appears I stand corrected on that point. In my zeal to point out a perceived weakness in the supporting evidence offered by gfdh, I overlooked (albeit unintentionally) the final athelete's Q&A, inexcusably mistaking Ms. Chun's interview to be the last. Consider this my "mea culpa."

sorry, I think I let you down with my follow-up post... Although I do attempt to keep exchanges as civil as possible and have no issues with conceding that I may have put my foot in my mouth.

Also, that second link you posted doesn't mention how longathletes are allowed to reside at the complex. I only point this out because if they're only allowed to live there for limited periods of time, one would assume they have to figure out housing arrangements when they're not "in season." That link merely…

Ha! I just got told... Better than being ignored, I guess.

Literally every response to the first question asked of these athletes in that article is that they aren't really making much in the grand scheme of things (considering they only compete every 4 years and training/housing/other necessaries don't come free or cheap)... So, no, she probably shouldn't edit that.

Because the log "cabin" is so massive, he actually needs to get in his truck to travel from one end to the other? Otherwise, it'd seem silly to leave a perfectly good lunch in his truck to spoil...

Must be a Cuban thing?

And here I was about to praise Deadspin for its insightful lesson into the Massachusetts Rules of Evidence (that's what it's called, right??)...
