Now we know why they’re so proud of Zaza.

You could google it to check.

I’m a lifer thimble. I always get angry if someone grabs it before I have a chance.

I think “member of team’s equipment staff” is a pretty good summary of what J Smoove was doing on the Clippers.

I have a feeling he’s actually going to piss people off by being too tenacious on D in this game. The guy has no off-switch.

The NHL’s clearly following tennis’s lead here and pursuing a “gone country” public awareness campaign.

Kawhi Leonard shoots 87.4% from the line.

Oh, I mean, no one came out of that day on my good side. I left the company within a year for a job that paid three times as much where I wasn’t sent on personal errands for the company director.

My first job in NYC was working for a non-profit based out of Soho. On the second day on the job, I was sent to do a run halfway across the city in the pouring rain to pick up a baseball cap my boss had left at her friend’s apartment. Upon getting to the building, I was informed by the doorman that I had to walk all…

I just don’t understand how you can be a professional basketball player who’s devoted your life to learning your craft and have a shot that looks like that.

Got a real Sparkle Motion vibe from this.

The writing was on the wall: Carol was all set to be the artful Critics’ Darling that snuck into a bunch of nominations, and then Oscar voters looked and saw a big shiny thing: a massively budgeted Leonardo DiCaprio western with 70s Euro visual affectations.

Yeah, I don’t really understand this at all.

Used to be 15, but they changed it to ten.

I was working a long-term temping gig about seven years ago. I was absent on a Friday to go to my uncle’s funeral, and when I came back the next Monday, I found that all the desks and offices around mine had been cleared. As it turned out, the entire division I had been temping for — a team of ten — had been fired on…

The thing is, Zizmor is old, so his skin is sagging, but it’s still remarkably blemish-free. Unfortunately smooth skin + sagging off your bones makes you look like a deflated balloon.

My understanding is that it’s pure misery. Always dehydrated, always slightly hung over.

Truly there is no Joey Crawford moment greater than this one, which always goes overlooked when people hate on him. Crawford, an uncoordinated, lumbering oaf, accidentally fouls Damon Jones with 18 seconds left in a tight game 7 of the Eastern Conference Finals. To cover his own ass, he then immediately blames…

Samurai movies seem timeless to you now because you live in the year 2015. In the mid 1970s, a samurai movie from twenty years prior wouldn’t have felt like some time timeless classic. It’s the functional equivalent of saying, “Oh, I love the look of Hong Kong action movies from the early 90s. I’m gonna make a space…

The Star Wars series’ chief visual influence are 1950s samurai movies and chief narrative influence are 1930s space opera serials. I can’t abide by this idea that the films weren’t self-consciously retro in the 70s, weren’t even more so in the 00’s, and aren’t still today. They’ve always operated within a visual…
