This sums up every trade in history of an established player for a draft pick

I think he mean’s in the sense that it largely driven based on gate & regional TV as opposed to the NBA and NFL where National TV is all that matters

Front row seats are definitely not better than that box for hockey. I think basketball is probably the only sport where you’re not better served 10-20 rows up.

Am I the only one who gets a 60 second ad to watch the 6 second mlb clips that get linked here? Ad revenue keeps things I like alive, so a 10 second ad is fine, but a minute for a 5 second clip seem outrageous

Still, drunk and staggering around is a better look than his sunglasses at the Ryder Cup

I often wonder why I waste my time and money on something that mostly just frustrates me, and I agree totally with the first paragraph here.

You’re right, not as loud as hitting it square, but the ping here still really makes it

What about post and in? That is a quality sports sound

100% agree with this. I don’t think he is necessarily the smartest guy on earth, but I also think he knows that and is willing to listen. I think he does have a strong desire to be universally liked (which isn’t the worst quality) and you can see it by the way his rhetoric changes when speaking in AB vs QC. Ultimately…

Who knew “lizards” would beat out “fappening” for best google image search

It seems like regardless of politic beliefs, “echo chambers” are a real problem based on the accessibility of media in 2016. Where do we go from here

I am relishing the recent increase in pun humour at deadspin

At least in Canada they don’t just arrest the one black guy
