Players who get nominated but never get to the hall of fame have shorter lifespans than those that do.

This is why the NFL fought so hard against the recommendation that players have their own doctors and not just use the team doctors. Where do teams find all these corrupt-ass doctors?

Never forget that every dollar spent on the parks services returns 10 dollars to the economy.

Am I the only person in Boston who thinks this suckup is just saying what people want to hear?

To be fair, it’s just get back at the 18-1 that was thrown at us before Superbowl 49.

US Open needs this with Serena out. It’s going to be fun rooting against Sharapova every single match. A villain is always great.

HOT TAKE: These old fucks need to stop hogging all the good jobs.

Why do reporters who can see the coach weaseling out of answering ask such open ended questions? This happens all the time in Trump interviews too.

I have this fantasy where one day, the fans just don’t show up. It was a long con to get you to invest in a stadium and a team and now we’re done. One billion in team value just erased.

The only thing better would be if the “Redskins name” curse becomes a thing.

I have a solution for keeping the strike duration low while still maintaining maximum leverage. Wait until right before the new CBA. Play the regular season and collect your checks. Then playoff strike. No playoff games, no superbowl. Just hand the owners a new CBA and tell them to sign it or we strike immediately.

Glad to see this happen. I’ve been worried that the fanbase would still rush out and support any half decent Mass Effect game which would send a signal to management that they haven’t done anything wrong.

If Ainge thinks Fultz is the best player, shouldn’t he draft him? Drafting for position has famously screwed teams over many times in the past. Assuming that Fultz and Tatum are equal, Thomas has earned the right to at least keep that starting position. If it doesn’t work out, they still have picks to put to use and…

I agree Butler is a plus over who we have at the 2-spot but upgrading either at the 3 or 5 spot is more of a need for the Celtics. They still want to see if they can get their swings in at George and Kristaps. Those two would be a much better addition to the team.

It’s funny how hate-able Ainge is. There’s not many other GM’s you’d prefer to have over him.

Ainge has often bragged that he would have taken Durant over Oden. With the first pick, he probably would have taken Tatum or Jackson if the trade didn’t happen. This is a GM that is confident in his security. He can do what he feels like without getting fired.

They should call this performance a “Pedro”. The Sox used to do this to Pedro Martinez all the time.

To be fair, the salary cap would have prevented this in any normal season. The cap spike is what allowed Durant to have the ability to sign a max deal with so many teams. The player’s association voted against cap smoothing (for reasons which I believe are along the lines of ‘I don’t trust the owners’) which would…

She’s 74 years old. Cut her some slack. 95% of grandparents feel this way. It doesn’t make them monsters. I can’t hate on her the same way I can’t hate on my own elderly relatives. It is the way they are and they won’t be on this earth for that much longer anyway.

Counterpoint: A Lebronless Cavs team should beat this Celtics team. This is Cleveland’s fault and no one else’s.
