Is this about them not liking The Orville? I ask because that’s the only recent instance I can recall of the writers of this site seeming to have a significantly divergent opinion of anything from its commenters. And, to be fair, pretty much every reviewer on the planet hated that show.

The inherent contradiction in King’s role at MMQB is that everyone acknowledges he has unprecedented access to the inner workings of the NFL...yet he does absolutely nothing of note with it.

Having read this trilogy after hearing it was being adapted, I was completely mystified as to how it could possibly be translated to the screen, but... damned if that doesn’t look pretty freaking close to a lot of what I pictured. The story will have to be different - IIRC they’ve already given the protagonist a name…

They should have done exactly what teams had been doing before Trump’s comments opened the door for the NFL and its owners to sanitize this entire movement and surrounding debate into a marketing campaign.

I think few people really care, but it’ll still make a billion dollars. That might be because James Cameron actually has a story to tell this time. More likely, it’ll be because the movie is really visually impressive and/or it becomes the latest high-budget mediocrity that dominates in overseas markets, like a rich…

Why smart writers dislike Melo: His isolation-dependent style is inefficient and runs contrary to their analytically-minded ideal of good offensive play. He stops the ball and takes long, contested two-point shots, both of which things are frowned upon in the modern NBA, for well-founded reasons.

The media lied to you.

This might be a logical argument if NFL teams were being honest about why they’re choosing not to employ Kaepernick. Honestly, if team owners or coaches came out and said, “He’s free to protest on his own time, but he insists on doing so while wearing our uniform, and we find his protest distasteful, so we will not be…

Fixed the headline.

Well, AHS is on its seventh story arc. Somebody must be watching the thing. Is its entire viewership hate-watching it?

Besides, Disney got to use Spider-man and they totally screwed him up that resulted in comfortably the best on-screen depiction of the character.

Man, this is some smarmy bullshit.

Had he read the script? Because I can’t imagine a non-dipshit reading any version of the Suicide Squad script and thinking, “I should treat this role with deathly seriousness!” And the complaints were clearly implied by the entire cast bringing up his bullshit at every available opportunity. I’d also like to note that…

If Daniel Day Lewis was mailing people condoms and live rats so that he could get into the right mindset to play the villain in a third-rate comic book movie, yes, people would have taken issue with him, too.

Something wrong with a professional being passionate about his craft?

Ah, fuck, I forgot about goddamn “John” “Harrison.”

While I get your point - assuming this is what you’re referring to, I am also annoyed by the constant theorizing and speculation and “CONFIRMED!” YouTube videos - I’m immensely gratified that Johnson doesn’t feel the need to tailor the movie around the worst parts of the Nerd Internet. It’s also good that he’s saying…

I’m usually loathe to defend my Jets, but the trade is really Sheldon Richardson, who has one year left on his deal and who they never intended to extend, in exchange for (1) being worse this season, so as to tank more effectively, (2) a 2nd round pick and, as an afterthought (3) Jermaine Kearse, a warm body at a wide…
