Having watched several of Zverev’s matches at Montreal, I can definitely say his ceiling is Grand Slam high. Although I REALLY REALLY REALLY like El Shapo’s one hand backhand. Not sure Tiafoe has the sheer physical attributes to keep up with those guys in the long run.

AGAIN: This should not be a serious surprise to anyone. They knew exactly what they were voting for and getting:

Are you really that stupid? Or just monumentally inattentive?

As a reminder, before Trump ever failed to call out the Nazis (and, as of this morning, attacked Merck’s black CEO on Twitter for resigning from a presidential commission over C’ville):

If you think Cruz isn’t saying that entirely out of political opportunism, I have a bridge to sell you.

Just so we’re all clear:

Jesus, I didn’t know I could roll my eyes so hard before I read that column. Brooks must have held the world record for wedgies received while in middle school.

I said elsewhere that I give Kelly three months, tops, as: (1) Trump has zero impulse control and will rapidly tire of being told no; (2) He will quickly get bored with discipline; (3) it will be impossible to keep Ivanka/Jared from continuing direct access to Trump, and they will quickly begin to undermine Kelly if…

The best thing Mooch will leave for posterity is a new Urban Dictionary entry for an acrobatic act known as “the Steve.” That or “Sixty Steve.”

The beautiful irony in Mooch complaining via Twitter the next day that he shouldn’t have trusted a reporter (ignoring the fact that Lizza made it crystal clear the conversation was on the record) — if he really thought he was talking to the reporter confidentially off the record or “on background,” then he......was…

One recalls that the Djokster once had a reputation for, shall we say, less than stellar mental toughness. I don’t doubt the injury and hope he comes back strong, but wonder if he’s lost the mental edge he had in place for awhile. Full disclosure: am a Fed fan, love his style of tennis, not a fan of Djokovic and…

Wife absolutely loves her 2009 Fit, which is an amazing damn clown car with the seats folded down (or the middle row folded up), and gets 43 mpg highway. I expect it’s also much quicker than an HR-V — she has a stick shift Sport, and the car weighs about 50 lbs. However. We live where it snows. On a hill. Every…

And these idiots don’t get that the public health cost of what they’s doing and want to do will be enormous. Universal healthcare is in place in virtually every other industrialized nation.  The con job in the U.S. is amazing.

There it is — “poorly funded.” You know why? Because Little Marco Rubio spearheaded the elimination of risk corridors, which encouraged insurers to remain in markets, and SCOTUS gave states permission to refuse Medicaid expansion (which keeps more poor, statistically less-healthy folks out of the exchanges). You…

I read that several times. He’s either referring to Medicare, or referring to a whole life policy. “You start working and you’re paying $12 a year . . . and by the time you’re 70, you get a nice plan.” Either way it’s completely disconnected from reality and has nothing to do with the issue at hand.

The press following every shiny object Trump & Co. throw out in order to deflect from RUSSIA is reaching unforgivable status. Just yesterday, it was reported Trump is moving to return Russian properties in New York and Maryland from which they were evicted by Obama in December as part of the sanctions for election…

Meanwhile, he practically grovels in front of Lavrov and Kislyak, and nearly gives Salman a public blowjob. He “respects” authoritarian types because he thinks they’re like him. Literally everything he does is reduced to a single calculation of whether he will be perceived as an “alpha.” To him, democratically…

There are only two possibilities: 1. Multiple Trump administration officials colluded with Russia in ways they knew or should have known were illegal and/or treasonous; or 2. The Trump people got massively played by the Russians and in the process proved their complete incompetence. There is no good — or even…

One wonders when his staff will start resigning in droves. He continually puts them in impossible positions and/or throws them under buses. Following the farcical Comey “tapes” tweet, I sorta kinda feel for Spicer — what was he supposed to say? If he admits that there are tapes, the subpoenas show up in ten…

Different styles, but for dialogue, he and Dutch Leonard are the best I’ve ever read.
