Yes, what you said.

This is exactly what she was talking about. It’s not good enough that she’s championing feminism publicly, she dares to point out that women are often the biggest enforcers of gender roles and patriarchal values, so fuck her.

I think there’s room to legitimately criticize our society’s fetishization of youth. It all becomes creepy in a JM Barrie sort of way.

You’re powerless, beholden to the whims of people who often have no more qualification to give instruction than “I’m bigger than you” and spend much of your day doing tedious, repetitive tasks because the bigger-than-you people forced you to

Opinions that are diffrent than your own are not weird.

All punishment is a stopgap measure. If you could culturally stop crime, you would. You can culturally stop some crime, but some crime is unstoppable. Basically, you could lower the instances of assault, but it would be nigh impossible to do more than that.

That putz should have been eaten.

I harbor similar suspicions.

I laughed. Then cried. Now I’m just numb.

I’m sure this is the strategy for Brazil soccer bloggers during the men’s World Cup.

Normally people say “too soon”.

J.R. Smith Week features six shutouts and one insanely entertaining 16-17 loss that deludes you into thinking you might actually win someday.

Not the goalie’s fault at all. Can't expect someone to do a bicycle kick from that spot on the field.

It does make them sound a bit pompous. Locally OSU is known as “That place with the Buckeyes” and OU is known as “The party campus”. Don’t get me wrong, OSU Campus likes a good party... but OU takes it to like, Frat Movie levels.

Fair. But then again you have to balance that against who LeBron has played in the Finals vs. the teams MJ played. Even if you give MJ credit for beating a Lakers team on the decline, and utilize some magical thinking on the quality of the Sonics and Jazz, it just doesn’t compare to what LeBron has had to face— with…

It’s both! There is The Ohio State University and Ohio University and OSU is so paranoid that their brand recognition would be threatened if both colleges official names started with “Ohio” that they emphasize “The Ohio State University” as their official name or some bullshit.

That there *is* nuance in questions about legacy?

James was without a doubt the most influential and most outstanding player in the series, and would have made for a very deserving MVP. But Scocca’s argument is disingenuous. It’s as bad and lazy as that of a baseball writer pointing to crap stats like Runs, RBI, and pitcher Wins.

I think people seem to forget that Jordan was the primary cog in the NBA machine post Larry & Magic. For whatever reason, the League doesn’t treat LeBron as much like royalty as it did Michael. Dude could get a foul call anytime he needed one. (Or — ahem — a no-call on an obvious offensive foul).

I think the Wilt Chamberlain comparison is actually really apt, for a lot of reasons. Wilt put up crazy stats, and yet the majority of people still think Jordan is a better player, for myriad reasons. LeBron is probably the most gifted physical specimen the NBA has ever produced, but I’m not sure he can harness his…
