oh sweet sustenance in these dark times

I’m not sure how many times I’ve visited SB nation in my life but I’m pretty sure I can count them on one hand. Is it even conceivable that they can afford to pay thousands? ESPN laid off a bunch of people for crying out loud.

These are impressive! And my god I want that cg popeye movie based on his model!

Alternatively, why doesn’t SB nation let them add a paypal link to anything they write? I’m sure there’s some legal, tax-collection reason for it. Or maybe it’s simply that SB nation would want a cut of any donations they get. But I’d like to know why what you suggest can’t be implemented

Full disclosure, I’m a big fan of Brian’s, particularly his work on podcasts.

Bless your heart. I’m going to indulge my dishwasher a bit more.

This sounds like a lot of fun! I want to try it. Thanks also for the list of recommendations! I look forward to giving them a try

Wow. That’s a very cool piece of info. Big difference between thinking they’re checking for theft and knowing they’re checking I didn’t get overcharged. They should put up big signs to let all their customers know this is the case

perhaps they’ll decide that Melo’s mere existence is making everyone else worse, but man, what a fall from grace

That was highly entertaining. So impressive

Because it would be a great economic boost

That will doubtlessly improve, and a good place to start would be to excise all this fatty Kobe cosplay from Tatum’s diet

That spinning elbow is incredible but I can’t stomach watching a person lose consciousness while standing like that and I really can’t stomach the way the other guy tries to get in more shots. I feel like boxing is more palatable but logically I understand it’s…

This is a great point. Was it The Dark Knight Rises where he is crying because he want Bruce to quit Batman and get on with his life? I really connected with the emotion in that scene. I distinctly remember the theater getting a little dusty at the time.

I enjoyed Hancock. How do you think its reception would have changed if it had not been billed as a superhero movie? I’m not sure how they would have otherwise sold it. Unbreakable, for example, is a superhero movie but I don’t think anyone thinks of it that way. At the time, it had the benefit of being marketed as a…

That’s a fascinating observation. Particularly because I’ve had that thought more and more over the last 3 or so years and now I have to wonder if Nolan incepted me.

It was a strange experience for me watching the end of that game. Seeing the fan and teammate reactions was delightful. But whenever they panned to the fans I couldn’t help wonder what each woman I saw in the stands was thinking about the situation. Then the sideline reporter joined him on the court. I don’t know her…
