They also paid $20 or so million for Alshon Jeffrey and Torey Smith that off season, but yeah what idiot spends on WR.

Evaluating a QB solely on the basis of team success or failure is dumb (see: Sanchez, Mark). Evaluating a WR solely on the basis of team success is insane.

Pittsburgh is the new Cleveland.

Lol what the fuck is happening

Wouldn’t the “close friends” reference also potentially refer to Daryl Morey? At least, it seems like Simmons is always talking up their relationship.

The thing I loved about this story, is Keisel couldn’t help but tell on himself. People (dipshits in particular) seem to forget that professional athletes play at an incredibly elite level, with the most insane shit talkers on earth. These shit talkers are all programmed to spend every minute of the game trying to get…

fuckity fuck, i meant good for the poor. goddammit. my comment makes so much less sense the way i wrote it... *insertfacepalmgif*

Delonte West already tried this. Didn’t really work out for him.

He lists all of the major events coming to Los Angeles over the next 10 years, including Super Bowl LVI, the MLB All-Star game, the 2026 World Cup, and the 2028 Summer Olympics.

Man, Dell Demps was an embarrassing GM working for an embarrassing organization whole years before Windhorst reported that the Pelicans torpedoed the Lakers via trade talks.

Absolutely not! But it was the only reported narrative, and it follows a path of logic, and it is no less credible than what Shams reported today. You’re privileging a statement from an anonymous Pelicans source with every bit as much conflict as those behind the earlier story, in order to give me shit about blogging…

Uhh, Windhorst was asked point blank by Rachel Nichols if the Pelicans were leaking the trade discussion in order to humiliate the Lakers, and he said, unequivocally, that that was the case. Then Magic Johnson openly accused the Pelicans of negotiating in bad faith. Now, exactly a month later, comes a report that an…

You are there to answer some damn questions.

A Magary is never late, nor is he early, he arrives precisely when he gets out of intensive care.

I’m such a Deadspin fanboy that I hate Barstool Sports despite the fact that I’ve never visited their site.
