I’ve heard/used “yam/yamming/yammed on” as dunk terminology in the past. It’s certainly not new, but is definitely a fun term.

Sounds like you’re trying to equate “cunt” to the n-word. Let’s not do that.

Yes, when “basketball” is a stand-in for “you are black and therefore you should not be playing hockey.” It’s clearly intended to reference a racial stereotype, and deploying it to taunt and unsettle a black man makes it obviously racist as hell.

Do you tell them your real job (Deadspin commenter)?

Complaining about the electoral college after the election is like complaining your (American) football team should have won because it had the most offensive yardage. Both sides knew how the game is scored and played accordingly.
