How fucking terrified is everyone of Myles Jack’s knee? Should have been a top-5 pick, but still on the board at the start of day 2. That’s nuts

That’s right young lady, if you stay in school, work hard and get good grades one day you too can be harassed and marginalized after being physically and/or sexually assaulted by an NFL player

I’m a Blackhawks fan living in DC. Of course I had to stay up until the game ended, there was no way I was going to be able to fall asleep without knowing who won, but fuck am I feeling it this morning. Really would’ve been nice for the game to start 90 minutes earlier like it should have

I understand why NBC wants this kind of scheduling - stagger the games so that people can watch one game after the other instead of splitting the ratings by people having to choose between them - the issue is that it’s completely ineffective and probably harmful to total ratings. Ratings for hockey have always been…

Really it all depends on circumstances. It’s a lot different when players are traded away, or when when a player and a team mutually agree that he’ll move on as a free agent, as opposed to a player seeming to spurn his former team. When a player leaves a franchise in free agency when that franchise is clearly trying…

And what do you want to bet that his advice re: rape essentially consisted of “if (when) you do rape a girl, make sure I’m your first call”

There’s also the theory (it’s really more of a hypothesis since there’s no actual evidence to support it) that players (especially enforcers) like to cling to that says that, while fighting in and of itself can and does cause concussions and other brain trauma, instances of concussions would actually increase overall…

I literally just added that Chrome extension and it’s already blocked 17 ads on this page alone

True, but he could have also claimed that he had what he believed was consensual sexual contact with someone whom he had every reason to believe was old enough to consent (thus not publicly proclaiming the victim to be a liar who made everything up). Additionally, the main reason his protestations of innocence are…

Another aspect to consider is that many health insurance plans include an additional fee in your premium if you are a tobacco user. For example, in the insurance plan that I have through my employer, an additional $25 would be added to the premium taken out of my bi-weekly paycheck if I still dipped or smoked (one of…

For what it’s worth (this is being somewhat pedantic and isn’t meant to take away from or disagree with anything you’ve written) it does defy logic that a victim of abuse would seek to reconnect with her (or his) abuser. The fallacy is in the absurd and demonstrably false notion that humans are inherently logical…

Gotta love how Goose is so old and crotchety that he can’t even keep his logic consistent across the things he complains about. We shouldn’t have replays because it removes the “human element” from the game, and besides no one’s ever died from a bad call. OK, fine, so then what is the celebration of a great play if…

No, dude legitimately hates Mike Babcock - this is far from the first time he’s ranted about him on Twitter

This is basically akin to saying that the Yankees and Dodgers should be granted automatic berths into the MLB playoffs every year or the Canadiens and the Maple Leafs should get automatic berths into the Stanley Cup playoffs regardless of how they do in the regular season, while teams like the Kansas City Royals or…

Stub hub only has mobile ticketing for teams / venues that have given them access to their API, which the Yankees have refused to do. And you can still buy Yankees tickets on stubhub, it’s just that the new policy to refuse print-at-home tickets makes that considerably more difficult as it requires either purchasing…

Yes, do not sleep on the jai alai ball, or the lacrosse ball, as dangerous sports projectiles - either one kills more people annually than hockey pucks, cricket balls, or any other sports apparatus outside of race cars and football helmets

It’s a schooner

One responded to a three-line email inquiry (which did not contain the specifics of the rumor) by asking to be connected with my HR department, referring to my request for an interview as “a breach of privacy.”

As a man I’m not entirely certain what’s more horrifying - the fact that this woman receiving 1-2 unsolicited dick pics every day is not even remotely surprising, or that so many of the men who send her these unsolicited dick pics actually have wives / girlfriends / female blood relatives with whom they’re supposedly…

I assume that he would have had to share the fact that his kid was dying with someone from the Cubs in order for his kid to get to receive a phone call from his favorite player. It’s like a make-a-wish wish fulfillment (prior to the Make-A-Wish foundation existing) - they’re not going to fulfill that wish if you’re…
