Everyone needs to just get a grip, this isn’t that big a deal.

And nobody hated the Steve Grogan Patriots.

Yup. Thanks, fixed it. Appreciate it.

Well, in the 80s you could get tickets to Clippers game really cheap and the Lakers games were sold out. I bought a mini-plan and got to see about 10 games from good seats and saw Jordan, Barkley, Ewing — all the good players from the good teams.

Yup. And Donald Sterling was the longtime owner.

Oh, I get it. I’m a Clippers fan and watch just about every game.

It’s easy to not like Austin Rivers. But this article made it slightly less easy to not like him.

“We have only the best superlatives.”

The conversation about Neymar/PSG must ultimately include how they do in Champions League. Unlike the top teams from England and Spain, as well as Italy, PSG has no competition for the Ligue 1 title. As a result, they’re able to rest players and take care with injured players in league matches and should be optimally…

That’s an interesting rule.

This has nothing to do with how cool the whole thing was, but I did wonder why they didn’t enforce the penalty on the extra point. Wouldn’t have changed a single thing about the game, but the NFL and the refs are so insistent on getting everything technically correct, I thought the Vikings would have to take the knee…

On our basketball staff, head coach Steve Alford started Bryce Alford for four years while Kory Alford walked on to the team for a few years until he…

He takes a lot of shit in that movie.

Glengarry Glen Ross?

Sorry, there is nothing ambiguous about the fact that Soon Yi Previn and Ronan Farrow are brother and sister because they are brother and sister. (Only someone who diminishes adoptive relationships could dispute that.) I didn’t even impart a value judgment — I just noted that it happened.

(By way — and apropos of nothing — this is a fun game to play with the movie The Outsiders. If all you have is The Outsiders to go on, who picks Tom Cruise to become one of the biggest movie stars in the world?)

Not only was Soon Yi Previn his partner’s daughter, Soon Yi Previn is (and still is) the sister of Ronan Farrow. Woody Allen married his son’s sister and there is no ambiguity about that.
