He Just basically adopted  the same technique you use to get past King Hippo in Mike Tyson’s Punch Out.

Hold on a second......you’re gonna tell me that the football coach at Louisiana Lafayette makes 850 grand a year ? I think Lane Kiffin would probably do it for 300 grand and an open invitation to sorority parties on campus. 

I can’t wait to be old enough and hammered enough in a bar at 2:30 in the afternoon that a punch to the head from a pro fighter doesn’t even phase me. A young, drunk buck would have tried to retaliate. This grizzled old man doesn’t even give McGregor the satisfaction of being preturbed.

This may have displaced Arnold getting dropkicked as the best Old Man Shrugs Off Your Sucker Punch/Ambush Highlight of the year. Frankly, I did not expect that title to be in dispute.

I was telling a friend the other day that i’m pretty sure yung tatis is the coolest looking player in the game right now. look at this ice cold mf

While Tatis is absolutely a delight to watch on a daily basis... Eh, I was going to mention a spate of errors and recent baserunning blunders, but screw that - he's still delightful even when he gets a bit too aggressive. Except that ill-advised splits that cost him 6 weeks. 

Most NFL teams would hire Charles Manson if he could play well.

Because shut up, Kyle.

You write so well. Thanks.

So he’d be willing to call an all-in bet for 27% of his stack with pocket 10's but not for 35% of his stack? Either way I think it’s a little bit of a loose call; the situation says he should call (Sammartino is the chip leader, Marchington is short stacked and in the blinds), but on the other hand pocket 10's a…

Going to say it, juiced ball is good for baseball.

I think it is a great story and really heartwarming for people who like stories about good parenting paying off dividends, but mark me as someone who is very, very skeptical. There’s really nothing about Coco’s game that impresses me. She’s got power off both wings - that’s not too special anymore - but little…

Remember when Deadspin was banging the drum on collusion and how statements from GM’s about not giving out 10 year deals were “bullshit” and Harper should be paid “his worth”? Something tells me those will not age gracefully.

Yeah, there is some weird byproduct of his hype that he’s portrayed as a long-time elite player when he really hasn’t been, at least not in the way of a Trout, or 2000s-early-10s Pujols and Miggy. He’s had a couple of elite spikes in 2015 and ‘17, when he was a world-beater, but has mostly been Very Good for the…

Yep. He got paid for one MVP level season and a bunch of seasons where he never came anywhere near those numbers. Both him and Machado are struggling to do anything worthy of those contracts right about now

So maybe the Nats weren’t the cheapskate chiselers they were made out to be, and actually being rational? Yeah, I know that’s a reach but....

And all the Phillies fans are still in denial about it so far. 

“The clear implications of Billups’s statement is that players who did not have two parents in the home—like, for example, fourth-overall draft pick De’Andre Hunter—were not raised right.”

Come on, be fair. If he didn’t call the timeout and get the technical, he would’ve given his team even less chance of winning. The only way the Warriors could extend the game was by getting the technical.

I thought this video was pretty good. Not definitive, but seems any decent orthopedist would know that a compromised calf would be risky for the Achilles.
