I’m holding my judgment on this situation. But I agree on her fans. If this was Sharapova, for example, this article would be completely different.

Can we please stop with the Serena worship? She’s a titan of tennis, a superb athlete, but she’s not without flaws, without her faults. She’s petulant, and this isn’t the first or worst instance of abusing an official in her career.

Huh?  OP asked how this is different from a foul ball, I said that it isn’t.  Then you say that it is different from a foul ball, and proceed to explain that it was clearly unintentional and a foul.  All 3 of us seem to agree that the correct call was made.  Am I missing something?

Nobody’s stopping him from copying info about his followers and asking them to follow his new account. He just can’t keep the account. Your inability to grasp and comprehend a fair analogy is stupid as shit, though. See? Now we’re all having fun [insert exclamation point here]

Did he also keep the work phone they gave him because he added people to the phone’s address book? Did he keep his workstation because he added a bunch of words to the hard drive?

First, the idea that Devin Booker isn’t worth the max is not outrageously stupid. I’m perfectly willing to admit there is plenty of merit to that idea.

At this point it’s “OR”, not “AND”.  Unless Brazil deliberately lets Serbia win, Brazil WILL be playing Germany next round.

Why does this utter bollocks have so many stars? 

Twice in four months now I’ve found myself passionately rooting for the Philadelphia Eagles. I’m beginning to question a lot of things about myself.

Counterpoint- he’s a walking anal fissure and moral cesspool that deserves all the scorn he gets.

Of all time? He carried a team to the Finals, won three DPOTY awards, should have won an MVP, and is a lock for the HoF.

I would not be surprised if at the end, Simmons becomes more appreciated for his ability to hire/develop talent rather than his writing skill. GM Simmons > Player Simmons.

The inaccuracy I was referring to isn’t about whether Bonaly was the first to do a back flip to one blade—it’s about whether the move was banned because of Bonaly. The rules made no distinction between a two foot landing or a one foot landing in terms of making it illegal. The difficulty of a one foot landing was…

Of course, you’re right. IT could’ve had his little remembrance when he returned to Boston the first time. He didn’t want it then, so tough shit. Pierce helped the Celtics get a championship.

I know Deadspin and this series of websites have no issue with the protests during the anthem, and that’s fine. (I personally am not bothered by the kneeling)

Yes, in fact. His hit stunned her, preventing her from flopping around any further and possibly falling out of the hold of the other officers onto the concrete (which might have resulted in her cracking her head on the pavement).

No way man. If you strike first, you have every fucking right to get your shit rocked. This is all on her.

And how do we not know this isn’t another of their pranks? Did the Gizmodo Special Projects Unit investigate their claims thoroughly?

I have never understood what the heck the word “considerations” means in this context. And what does trading for cash mean? Isn’t it more accurate to say the Rockets purchased the contracts of these players? Somebody help me. I’m wondering if this is some kind of collective bargaining agreement legal language that…
