I always liked Orsillo, and, as you said, he could make games fun to watch, even when the game wasn’t close, or one or both teams were bad.

The idea that the behavior and beliefs of “Muslim extremists” (if that’s even a thing) are comparable to the evils of Naziism is incredibly offensive. I, for one, hope ESPN shows that ideas like these won’t be tolerated. Curt Schilling should never be seen on television again.

Well done. You’re a true hero.

Leave it to racist Republican (but I repeat myself) Schilling to slander a billion people by clearly implying that all Muslims are terrorists, and are also equivalent to Nazis. Try harder, Curt.

I think this article is fair, reasonable, and deals with reality on reality’s terms. It’s far better than the espnW piece I read a couple of months ago or so, which wouldn’t even concede that high testosterone levels provide any kind of an advantage. Or, if they do, they’re no more an advantage than, e.g., longer legs…

I think Rollins beats him at Summerslam. There will be heel stuff in there, of course, but that’s Rollins’ character (one he’s developed brilliantly over the last year or so). But I think Rollins pins Cena there.

Good question - Rusev won the title on that Network-exclusive match against Sheamus after RAW. If we don’t count that one, we have to go back to 2013 for a RAW United States Title change (Kofi beat Cesaro).

He retained it because it would make no sense to have him drop the title against Rollins here. I mean, even by WWE standards, that would have made no sense.

Thank you for saying what I’ve been (incredulously) thinking to myself for the last couple of months: Cena may legitimately be the wrestler of the year.

Ugh. It’s ridiculous to think that men and women would have different interests in movies. Grow up, Netflix!

Sex workers are heroes who are discriminated against by a regressive, judgmental society. Selling sex is no less noble than being a plumber or a teacher or an accountant. Eventually, our country will realize that this isn’t the 18th century anymore, and that we need to be sensitive and accepting of people who make…

You’ve never heard of Jocko Flocko?

During the pre-show, they showed a nice video package for Dusty. When they came out of it, Renee Young (the pre-show host) couldn’t compose herself and could barely speak at all. Genuine, heartfelt emotion.

Games 5.

Seriously! THIS IS CONTRA!!!

I agree - business should be free to refuse to express messages only if we think they’re bad messages. For example, a t-shirt printer should absolutely have the right to refuse to make a hate-filled shirt that reads, “MARRIAGE = MAN + WOMAN” or “GLOBAL WARMING IS A HOAX” or “BRUCE JENNER.” However, they should not be…

The important thing is that I get to feel superior to Phil Jackson because of his wrong views, his credentials notwithstanding. This is the same way I feel when some conservative politicians who has accomplished a lot in his career spews some wrong-thinking, non-progressive ideas. At that point, I know I’m better than…

Agree 100% with Ernest on the Big Show / Reigns match. I think WWE has figured out the formula for Reigns matches: Just put him in with someone who is big enough to (credibly) pummel him. Worked with Lesnar (of course), worked with Big Show. In fact, I would say that’s the most entertaining Big Show match in, I don’t…

Tangential question, but I’ve always been curious about this: Is the frequent use of Deportes clips (as opposed to the English feed) because of different usage rights / less potential hassle over IP?
