This is likely the biggest mistake I’ve ever made on Kinja, but god help me, here I go.

Love making fun of Mike, but this looks worse on the Giants than it does for him. It shows they can’t handle criticism and will block people out who dare to test them. It’s Dolan-esque. Mike is right here. 

whoosh

“Has he ever been relevant?”

Carmelo was kind of a cranky dick to him, but otherwise I don’t think the Knicks really fucked up too badly (with Lin - they can be blamed heavily for almost everything else). He had a meniscus tear and missed the end of that season just 25 games into “Linsanity,” during which he’d already come back to earth a bit.…

I’m not a big Barstool guy and always prefer to read Deadspin, but...

Sorry Deadspin, but in the US soccer world, ur only slightly better than TMZ.

Or the fact that Chauncey thinks that one of the major weaknesses in his community is the amount of absentee fathers and that from his perspective he sees a large number of boys looking to NBA players as role models and this gives an opportunity to mildly promote the issue that being a dad for your kid is a good thing…

“The clear implications of Billups’s statement is that players who did not have two parents in the home—like, for example, fourth-overall draft pick De’Andre Hunter—were not raised right.”

Or perhaps it’s possible to preserve a theoretical ideal (an intact, loving, married, two-biological-parent household) and appreciate the instances where reality actually lives up to it without confusing it for criticism of any reality that happened not to.  

Wtf are you talking about? It is a horrible shot. Had he missed (which was highly likely) we’d be laughing at Dame because of the following...

All jokes about the OKC meltdown aside, I don’t really understand why listing Lillard’s small sample stats this series from 30-34 feet is relevant at all on a contested 37 foot shot. 3 more feet even from 34 to 37 is a huge difference. Seems pointless here.

Holy cow you’re insufferable with this one. Gatorade, Jordan/Nike and countless other brands have showcased a player’s charitable efforts to celebrate a player’s accomplishments on and off the field at the end of their career (Jeter, Manning, etc.). Are we really going to start criticizing brands for making these…

Thanks for this. When I left the house this morning, I noticed the magnolia tree in our front yard was in full bloom and took a moment to appreciate its beauty. After reading this, I remembered that the real focus should be on all of those stupid flower petals which I will have to clean up over the coming weeks. Life…

This article reads like you made your thesis and forced these two quotes to imply something they do not. Auriemma’s quote ends with “Because some people have abused the role of a coach,” and McGraw explicitly says that not being tolerant of bulling is “not a bad thing.” Unless you’re going to print the full context in…

I am sure 99% of the people on here have seen this but...this one never gets old.

No, I really hate their fans. 

More fucking horseshit.

Phillips did not “enter the space between them” - he explicitly said on CBS News that he walked into the high school group to prevent them from harassing the poor innocent black protesters. The fact that those black protesters were using vile, homophobic, racist language is downplayed by you,…

There were no winners in that video, but the conscious attempts by people on the left to crucify these kids without making proper reference to everything that led up to it, show their biases, not the kids.

“She’s a fan and she said the guy was her least favorite player on twitter.”
