Yes, because the most popular sport (soccer) in the world does not have elite talent aggregation by the top teams in every league except MLS.

Yes, and?

Indeed. These debates really bring out people’s pro-management bias. Underneath it all, athletes are labor, but labor sufficiently privileged to occasionally choose the location of their work. Why shouldn’t Durant do what he wants? What the fuck does he owe the Thunder?

Everyone is going to be so pissed when GS wins Game 7 at home after Draymond punches LeBron’s dick clean off.

I mean, we could’ve easily ended up with the Warriors and the Cavs in the Final.

Best joint ever.

I’ll always feel bad for Klay Thompson. He could have been drafted by the Utah Jazz but for his decision to smoke marijuana. Instead he’s had to labor in anonymity in Oakland all these years.

Underrated and overrated are the worst categories in sports journalism. “Is Steph Curry’s defense better or worse than your perception of the public’s perception of Steph Curry’s defense?”

His families must be so proud of him.

When asked about it in the clubhouse after the game, he just laughed it off.

So the arenas are just pumping in music during the entire game now? Next thing you know they’ll be throwing up “boiiyooooiyooiinnngg” sound effects every time the away team takes a jumper. Good grief!

Wade had plenty of experience in “you breathed on him” fouls in the ‘06 Finals.

There are 7 more teams in the NBA than there where in ‘88, so talent was definitely more concentrated.

Counterpoint: virtually every play that makes it into a SportsCenter Top 10 highlight is a defensive play.

Why would a team that needs to develop young guys to be successful in the future hire a coach who is actively against the idea of letting young guys burn AND give him a contract that essentially encourages his veteran bias because he needs to win and young guys “don’t know how to win yet?”

Way to bury the lede. There’s only one issue here: how many times will Stephen A. Smith use the phrase “I’m not blaming the female, but” when yelling at Skip Bayless about this story tomorrow?

Archuleta, Smith and Big Daddy are this decade, but if you insist on torturing me and relive the horror: Jeff George, Danny Werfel (sp.), Shane Matthews, Laverneus Coles, Sean Springs, Antwan Randel El, Pepper Rodgers (front office), Vinny Cerrato (front office), Larry Michels (play by play, GAWD he sucks)...list goes…

This is the biggest win for the Canes since like 2007.

The.Fuck.It.Doesn’t.

Let’s cut the guy some slack on his day off. It’s not easy being a St. Louis policeman.
