Props to TNT for bravely showing the Wolves/Sixers game (Philadelphia has 18 points in the first 14 minutes, James Harden had 16/6/6 in the 1st quarter of the Rockets/Blazers game), not caring that they could have tripled their viewership with an 11th/12th Bones re-run in that time slot.

I’m pretty damn sure Uwe Boll had nothing to do with Fitzcarraldo, as he was 14 when it was filmed by Werner Herzog

Malcolm McDowell took quite a physical beating in Clockwork Orange, what with the scratched cornea during the Ludivico treatment, near-drowning by his after the breathing apparatus in the water trough failed, and a few cracked ribs from an insufficiently pulled kick. Pretty sure Vincent D’Onofrio didn’t have a great…

I look forward to all the cricket stories this will spawn

Jesus shit, let Bravo die

The Sports Story at the End of the Universe

Thank God we’re finally going to take down that son of a bitch Tony Bennett, this will almost make up for a reactionary sociopath getting elected while Bravo reality shows watched by literally tens of hundreds are being fully dissected.

It’s true, there are NFL teams that do well on draft day and teams that don’t.

I love the piping-hot “Well, GMs in the NFL will take this rank disloyalty into account come draft day” take-- as if they would ever give a flying fuck (and probably would give bonus points for that player’s commitment to a pro career).

I can’t wait until they meet the Warriors in the Finals, I mean I guess they have to since apparently they’re the only two NBA teams
