I don’t watch Adventure Time or Steven Universe, but the writing on Rick & Morty is absolutely brilliant, in terms of comedy, world-building and character development. That’s why I’m fascinated by it. Can’t speak to others’ experiences. The animation seemed odd to me at first, so I get that complaint, but I got over…

I think an important distinction to make in this debate is that perhaps Phil’s biggest failing in his Knicks tenure was his inability to evolve and adapt. As Burneko notes, the Triangle made more sense during Phil’s heyday because the rules for defense were different; it also was a good fit for teams with transcendent…

I think this story line was chiefly the product two factors: 1) Phil Jackson and his associates scapegoating the players for the team’s failure, by implying that the team was bad because they’re stupid dummies or lazy jerks who couldn’t or wouldn’t learn the triangle and 2) the players having no interest in “learning”…

well, now there is, I guess (?)

I don’t know why, but I just can’t get into this series. I genuinely disliked the first one, thought the second was objectively well-made but difficult to invest in emotionally, and I’m having a hard time getting excited for the third, and not because I doubt that it’s good. One of my main issues is that I actually…

Nah, they’ll kill somebody eventually. Not because you’re wrong about Marvel/Disney being averse to finality - there’s always more money to make, and I say that as a die-hard fanboy of these movies - but for the pragmatic reason Bricken elucidated: these actors can’t and/or won’t do this forever. They’re mortal beings…

It me!

To say that these historic items should be destroyed because they represent something about our history that we don’t like is absolutely absurd.

I apologize and retract my comment, substituting this dickbutt in its place:

Right, and that’s an important distinction to make, given that almost from the second it was coined the phrase “fake news” has been twisted to mean everything from “news I that displeases me” to “informed speculation that turns out to be wrong” to “opinion with which I disagree.”

What about that photo is supposed to make me think she shouldn’t be She-Hulk?

For the league to be about anything but the Warriors for the next few years, it would need to abolish the salary cap and the luxury tax, freeing teams to sign the players they want and can afford, without artificial limitations.

This is so exactly the right answer that I’m embarrassed for not immediately arriving at it.

If the Jets fielded a barely above-average player for 10 seasons, and that barely above-average player was able to become the second-leading tackler in team history, then that tells you more about the Jets than Harris. Period.

Dude, a team’s “Ring of Honor” is not the Hall of Fame. It’s a fairly arbitrary distinction, generally based not on a player’s stature within the league, but importance to the franchise. The one of the most recent players inducted into the Jets Ring of Honor was Wayne Chrebet, who never made an All-Pro or even a Pro…

Not sure why the author’s fairly mundane, broadly within-the-consensus observations have riled you so much, but for what it’s worth: I’ve watched every Jets game since Harris entered the league, and read more than my share of Bowles’ quotes on players, and it’s pretty obvious to me that 1) Harris is a Ring of Honor…

You realize that trump originated and perpetuated that narrative, right? As a candidate, he called for the “total and complete shutdown of Muslims entering the United States.” The only reason the current executive order doesn’t go that far is because the attorneys tasked with crafting it (rightly!) concluded that such…

Haha I was actually totally fine with the Mad Men finale, but I get why people hated it.

As a dirty millennial who grew up in the Brosnan/Craig era, the best Bond song I’ve heard in the theater was definitely “Skyfall.” But my personal favorite overall might be “You Only Live Twice,” not because of anything about that (Connery) movie (which I’m not sure I’ve seen), but because it was used awesomely in the…
