I like how the focus is on Magic and LeBron and Anthony Davis...when Kawhi was the most guilty of tampering with the PG13 thing.

There is a zero percent chance that the NBAPA will ever allow the owners to control the players’ fucking communications with each other. I am highly disappointed in Silver, who I generally think is an amazing commissioner, as this is an example of plantation mentality.

Hard agree. I like Joan, but this article is a very bad and dumb take.

WTF is this article?

Thanks, baby boomers. That Prop 13 generational theft was totally cool of you.

I fucking hate those people. Or the people that use the overhead bin for a purse on a full flight or a damn hat.

Instead of dodgeball, we played nationball on the basketball courts. Only real difference is when you got out, you went to the back of the opposing teams end line and tried to get the balls that got past the opposing team and toss them over to your team’s side. Also, you could lob the ball over your opposing teams…

I think he’s saying they shouldn’t be at the wedding, but that in general is a bad take (unless specific circumstances make that problematic).

Wait, are you saying people who re-marry should abandon their kids from their previous marriage?

Yes, he replaces all of those guys on either team. And you play him at forward.

They must give Billy editorial privileges for any article involving Barcelona and/or Neymar.

The result of the Neymar Sweepstakes could very well determine the next half-decade of European soccer.

Yes, I recall the halcyon days of yesteryear when there were no weekly controversies in soccer based on disputed handballs and offsides calls.

It’s the same as last week, when VAR disallowed a gorgeous Man City goal because it decided that Raheem Sterling’s shoulder was offside by a couple centimeters.

It doesn’t have AM/PM because it doesn’t need it.

A “shelled” pistachio means it has the shell removed. In yet another inexplicable quirk of the English language, to “shell”, verb, means to remove the shell from a nut, seed or pod. So perhaps his girlfriend assumed the shell had already been removed if he was referring to them as “shelled pistachio”?

“An event happens today at 12:45 PM, something else happens at 10:45 PM, yet the second one happened after the first one even though its a smaller number. This is dumb.”

Not as dumb as being unaware of using/unable to generate the mental ability to use 24hr time.

It’s always amusing to watch the bloggers of Gawker Media Group stomping around in a high dudgeon when a journalist doesn’t live up to their standards. This guy should have offered $10,000 for unretouched pics of Epstein's junk.

Yes, the company should have a response soon, although these things always take longer than you think they should. But the article was about why Bill Simmons hasn’t made a statement about the union’s request for recognition. The answer, which is obvious to anyone with a little bit of experience with these things, is…

You should be aware that Simmons can’t really make a statement until the company, as a whole, responds to the request. Making any statement about the union’s request for recognition could be a potential unfair labor practice, particularly if any part of that statement could be construed as an attempt to interfere with…
