um, hate to break it to you, but we’re all gonna die from SOMETHING.

he never lost possession of the ball? except when the ball hits the ground, bounces in the air and he regathers it. other than that, no, he didn’t.

it is absolutely insane to me that baseball, with a season twice as long as the next longest sport, has a “playoff” of one game. it’s incredibly stupid.

no one’s lecturing anyone on “free speech”

you mean like every other neighborhood ever?

I don’t think he meant allowing him to explain the statement, but including the next statement that he was clearly preparing to say. I can’t think of something that he would say next that would lessen the stupidity of what he just said, but cutting him off in the middle of a statement makes it look like the video’s…

or maybe Phil is smarter than we all think, and he’s trying to make the team bad enough that Melo actually demands/agrees to a trade, and they can rebuild for real. that’s the only option that actually makes sense to explain his last couple seasons of GMing, short of him just being over the hill

even if he’s an intelligent guy, hubris and a refusal to learn and adapt can cause someone to do dumb things.

when the player in question would instantly be your best or second-best player (depending on how one feels about Me7o), it’s dumb to tell him he has to play one particular position exclusively and refuse to budge.

Do you happen to be “Brian8556”? ;)

yeah, this game between two Central American nations was very “Eurotrendy” - good lord

jesus christ

lol, there are only two things more pathetic than someone as stupid as you:

lol, so the person who actually saw what the controversy was about is a “sicko” for knowing what he’s talking about. you’re a moron. bye.

the rape gifs happened in the weeks & months before the greys. The fact you never observed something doesn’t mean it didn’t happen. Do you honestly think a company as invested in its internet interface as Gawker/Kinja would make such a drastic change if it WASN’T a big deal?

oh, and “gore porn” is pictures of mangled, dismembered, or otherwise destroyed human bodies, often with sexual or necrosexual overtones too. maybe you’ll understand now why it was a big deal. though “rape gifs” should’ve been enough to make you get it.

well, if you never came across it it’s because you were (here’s a shocker) never in the comments section of jezebel articles during that time period, because they were pretty common, and disgusting. the reason you haven’t come across one recently is that the graying and blurring of photos made it so that those trolls…

uh, it wasn’t “internet troll banter” you moron. it was rape gifs and gore porn, which nobody wanted to see, and it was targeted at jezebel b/c of their politics. the greys are stupid, but don’t lie about what happened.

I mean, if you looked at that (all caps!) headline, and the accompanying “article”, and thought its hyperbole was serious...

eh, even that was pretty much the exact joke that another writer made over on the “meet the presidential candidates” post over on Jezebel today. I don’t think too much thought went into the “spot-on” analysis, I’m afraid.
