There are so many fantastic parts of that highlight montage, but my favorite might be at the very end when, after scoring his hat trick, Zlatan runs over an LAFC defender while celebrating and then nonchalantly tosses him to the ground like he’s a fucking child.

Just don’t tell his achy-breaky back that it’s just the way he is.  (Also, don’t tell Bruce Hornsby.  Or the Range, for that matter.)

BTW, if you’re not following Jomboy’s twitter account, you should start (even if you hate the Yankees).  He does these breakdowns regularly, and they are always interesting and often hilarious.

My god that’s fantastic.  Watch the stars roll in on this one...

FWIW, the David French tweet thread that’s quoted in the Bukowsky tweet is actually making the opposite point of Bukowsky (an example from the thread: “So who should be the most overwhelmed by gratitude? The person who had to do actual work in the real world to earn citizenship or the person who enjoys the fruits of…

Peyton Manning would certainly agree!

See, this is why I read the comments. I had the same general reaction as you, but you have given it a voice and made it sing.  {chef’s kiss}

Hey now, what’s so bad about a Kobold?

Oh.

The way he rises after making contact with the defender reminds me of the Tom Chambers dunk on Mark Jackson.

Weird. I think it’s related to the footnote. Here’s a screenshot from below that point.

The more important question is: Why are all the u’s in this piece bigger than they should be?  How does that even happen?

Pro tip: if you find yourself using the phrase “you people” eight times in three paragraphs, you might be an asshole.

Or even just once, come to think of it.

The ping pong and foosball tables are still there, but it’s just not the same anymore smh

OMG this is so dumb and yet I’m dying.

So, Doris Burke tells the world that Klay wants to come back and is jumping up and down in the locker room to “stay loose.” Then, a minute later, she’s back on telling everyone he’s done for the game. And then 10 minutes later, we see Klay on industrial-grade crutches moving slower than Boogie Cousins defending the…

Is it Brad Pitt’s fault for foisting Achilles into our collective psyches as a hero to be lionized, rather than a flimsy rubber band that destroys the careers of athletes in their early/mid-30s?

something about Drake dapping a fan on the way out like a player who contributed something useful to the effort just kills me.

Cousins matched his defensive goaltending violation with an offensive goaltending violation, on a putback of a bricked three-pointer

I applaud your efficiency in cramming so many taeks in one blog post.

It makes sense that some states are in more than one region. BUT: it also looks like there are overlapping regions too? Otherwise, how could “the entirety of Montana” be included in the Mountain West while “parts of Montana” are also included in the Plains?

Point being: if you have regions that overlap, it’s gonna be…
