Durant, Steph Curry (who is never going anywhere else), Klay Thompson, and Green are all high-earning players in a league that, at most, allows you to have three of those long-term. The pecking order suggested that one or both of Thompson and Green would be heading out the door,

Amber Heard is playing Nadine? The Amber Heard who was seduced by Johnny Depp. Was emotionally and physically manipulated and abused by Johnny Depp? Who eventually realized Johnny Depp’s toxicity and broke free from Johnny Depp at great personal cost? It is like she was made to play this role. It could only be more

The tweet translated:

He has convincingly proven that he is not Dell Demps, and that was the most important thing.

The site will have a hugely valuable back catalog of hundreds of videos. (including legitimately hired amateur actresses and full-fledged professional porn-stars). That’s a real asset (like real estate) that they can’t hide. If the plaintiffs win and defendants declare bankruptcy, they would have to sell the

The club retired the slain deputies’ badge numbers and placed them on a Wall of Fame alongside the numbers of Jackie Robinson and three members of the Ripken family (Cal Sr., Cal Jr. and Bill).

Usually celebrities can team up with a company without that company using it as an endorsement of every shitty thing they’ve ever done. If David Harbour did a Volkswagen ad, Volkswagen wouldn’t tweet out how he and the entire cast of Stranger Things approve of their attempts to illegally evade air pollution rules. If

Comparing lengths of suspensions between pitchers and position players is meaningless. Pitchers always get suspended longer than position players because they don’t play every day. If pitchers are suspended for one or two games it can be worked into their normal rest and they basically don’t miss any games they

OKC has Miami’s unprotected 2021 pick. They only trade Paul to Miami if they think it makes Heat worse for 20-21. When Russ wanted to go to Miami, they might have done it because they feel they owe him, but they talked him into going to Houston instead. They don’t owe Chris Paul anything. 

The nets signed KD for 4/164 (41M/yr), but will probably only get 3 years out of him. But the Max salary means that elite players are HUGE bargains. If there were no max salary, KD could sit out next season and sign for 60M/yr in 2020, easy (uninjured he could get 80M/yr and teams would gladly fill out the roster with

(it’s a dick joke)

A couple days after David Ortiz was shot, the Post pushed an article basically accusing him of doing *something* illegal to get himself shot and accusing him of betting on baseball several years ago. . The man was in the ICU and they used it as a chance to end his Hall of Fame candidacy and assassinate his character

The Golden State Warriors basically did that in January.

I have no problem with this. They aren’t hiding the money or putting it on the books for 2050. It’s not like they got someone’s dad a 5-million a year job with their sponsor or parent company. Both teams’ spending over two years will be the same, so it is following the spirit of financial fair play. It reminds me of

It too was Alabama. A pregnant woman’s mom was worried she was going to miscarry because she was so stressed. So she took half a valium that was prescribed to her boyfriend. Weeks later, during delivery, The Hospital did a drug test (the baby was healthy so a tox screen was not medically needed and she was probably

The Pirates catching platoon of Don Slaught and Mike LaValliere was a thing of beauty: the lantern jawed mustache guy and the fat faced mustache guy (LaValliere was nicknamed “Spanky”). When Doug Drabek was pitching, lookout. Mustaches galore.

The US Men’s team doesn’t have stars above their badge. A few years ago, the US badge had 3 stars as part of the design because the stars and stripes are national symbols, on the national flag, and part of the team’s nickname. It never had anything to do with world cups. Ghana’s badge has a star for the same reasons.

After the second goal she gave the “Up Your Ass” gesture. She balled her hand into a fist and stuck her thumb straight up for everyone to see. What message are we sending our kids? No Class.

No Asterisk. The Warriors would be like the 1989 Lakers who lost a shot at a 3-peat after an injury to Magic Johnson. But the Bad Boys Pistons deserve their title and praise every bit as much. But Injuries would affect the way this Warriors team is viewed. If they lost while healthy, it would have been historic, but

It would be easy to get out of the embarrassing 90's trend-chasing connotation of “Raptors” by keeping the name, but ditching the dinosaur mascot and going with a Bird-of-Prey like a Falcon, Eagle, Osprey or Owl. After all “Raptor” refers to birds-of-prey. The use ofraptor” to refer to Dromaeosaurid dinosaurs is a mu
