Man what the hell happened to Tristan Thompson? He was never going to be an elite player, but he can certainly still be a defensive presence and snag rebounds. Old ass Al Horford just murdered him last night and presumably left his corpse in the Mystic River. It seemed like every possession he was either trying to…

Flat Mamba. That is a legitimately awesome burn/nickname.

JaVale McGee is the “Gaffe God”

That home run animation..... Lol

I never really cared greatly about ESPN programming. For years it was just the background noise in whatever room I happened to be doing something in. That changed when ESPN tried to force feed Rick Reilly segments on me. There is something about his awful, awful sense of humor that I just found almost offensive. We’re…

I’m not claiming to be anywhere near as smart as Brad Stevens, but it doesn’t strike me is savant-like genius to make your game plan “lets make the guy who can’t shoot, shoot” and “lets keep the big man away from the rim.” Clearly that is easier said than done but it isn’t exactly a concept of inconspicuous brilliance.

I’ve probably watched that maybe 30 times. It’s soothing, like watching the ocean tide roll in and out. My mind is kind of numb pondering the agility to be able to do that at full speed. I mean it’s damn impressive even slowed down!

I’m a big KU fan and hate Duke like any rational, non-sociopath but if that wasn’t the end of the game Newman gets called for the block there. It wasn’t an egregious block, but the fouls have been called so damn tight this entire tournament my balls were in my throat thinking he was gonna get the call.

The MLS is now basically the elephant graveyard of world greats. And I’m perfectly fine with that!

2.5 million buyout for being an unmitigated failure. Gotta love capitalism at work. Keep paying those student loans, kids.

Maybe the degradation of the family dynamic and lack of trust in each other started when older, conservative people started indoctrinating one another and their children that everyone only needs to look after themselves and that people different from you are not only untrustworthy, but a threat to your survival…

“One, Alabama should be better this time next year.”

Thoughts and prayers to Nurkic’s next of kin. Taken at such a young age too. So sad.

Trump won a plurality of voters in the primary, not a majority. It’s still a damning indictment on a significant portion of Republicans, but it’s not accurate to say more than 50% supported him.

Washington is one of those places that is sneaky redneck. Eastern Washington might as well be Missouri or Tennessee.

“who any honest expert can tell you is at least as lucky as he is talented?”

Right, but I think that is even further evidence of how using New England as an example is bunk. No other QB is taking a huge discount on their contract because no other QB has a wife making more money than he is to the point that a few million dollars is waivable. A better comparison would have been the Vikings…

Good? Yes, he’s good when you look at the “average” QB right now. It all really boils down to the ol’ Joe Flacco “is he elite?” I’d say... maybe! His receivers dropped a ton of balls last year. He could put up incredible numbers with receivers like Thielen and Diggs.

New England is the absolute worst example of this. They have the greatest QB of all time, that makes comparisons basically worthless.

Of course fucking Gary Johnson is there. It wasn’t enough that he’s an ignorant dope that also helped deliver us Trump because he wanted to fuck around and play presidential candidate for a few months, he has to appear at the annual gathering of swamp creatures to make sure he courts them too. What a fucking twat.
