I, too, wish I was a little bit taller.

I completely disagree, the last thing baseball needs is a scandal involving performance enhancing hugs.

No one ever thinks about poor Yao Ming.

“If you don’t know what you’re talking about, shut the fuck up!” said Stephen A Smith, shortly before the universe collapsed into an irony-singularity 

Stephen A. Smith telling people not to be childish is like having Donald Trump tell people that lying is wrong. 

STOP ANGLING FOR FREE P.F. CHANGS STEPHEN A!!!

“I’m saying Daryl Morey had an obligation/to think about the Huston Rockets organization/ and about the National Basketball Association.”
Why does Stephen Smith sound like a guy trying to sling his mixtape at a gas station at 4 am?

Lolz, SAS acting like Yao Ming is an undercover agent and will now be found floating in the Yangtze River because of Morey’s tweet.

Maybe, but players (and coaches? I’m not sure) in the NBA have more power than in the NFL and that wouldn’t vanish if owners suddenly decided to cater to the MAGA crowd. Labor in the NBA is simply worth more. The owners might try and tell LeBron to shut up but they couldn’t threaten to blacklist him, and I guarantee…

I’m an old guy who grew up watching Jim Crockett Promotions (among other promotions). I don’t watch WWE, and only vaguely follow goings on via reading stuff here and hearing stuff from my nephew. I hate McMahon with a passion and I hate WWE in general. I hear NXT’s product is good, but I boycott it on principle. I got…

It’s the little things they’re already doing that’s separating them. They went match -> in-ring post match run-in -> match to start without ever going backstage. MJF cut a heel promo in two minutes instead of 20. The three commentators called the action instead of forced bickering byplay while a senile dude cackles at…

Apropos of this, I will be tucking into Mexican food and tuning into Smackdown on FOX tonight, for the first time since high school when it would air before Star Trek: Voyager.

It was really fun to listen to JR and Tony Schiavone together.

I’d argue the revolution is that a true second company is here. It honestly doesn’t have to be that different from WWE, just that it feels different. And that’s exactly what AEW can hopefully be.

As someone who never watched any of the AEW PPVs, who will flip to Raw or Smackdown on a Monday or [Friday] night if I’m bored, but don’t seek them out, and who generally tunes in to the Big 4 PPVs but not much else, what excited me most was getting to hear Jim Ross. The commentary on AEW was just so much better than…

You’re thinking of his liver

On the bright side, Europeans speaking in German but pausing to say, “Vat the fahk?” in English indicates that America’s role as a global leader is not so tarnished that it can no longer inspire other nations to aspire to this Shining City on a Fuckin’ Hill.

“I went to work at Kinkos with an infected toe nail! This guy has no heart! Put some ice on it!”

Ironically I found the most beautiful people work in HR, that's why I keep getting sent there. And then once I'm there I end up needing to see HR again, it's an infinite loop.

This was fascinating and illuminating. Glad Deadspin is sticking so closely to sports like this.
