You know the best part about any article which mentions NFL ratings being down? The absolute torrent of commenters who can’t wait to tell everyone how they’re such upstanding people they hardly ever watch football at all anymore and how their lives are better off for it. It’s like the Onion’s “Man Can’t Stop Talking…

This is a level of stupid that should result in the writers losing their jobs in academia. I’m not really being hyperbolic here, either.

These are not negative consequences for the band members. I can’t think of any reason why the band members would give a flying fuck that the game they will be attending as band members won’t be carried on the radio. The macho posturing of the station that they are teaching consequences to these students, and the…

Christ, the stupid...

Welcome to the lacrosse field, rookie. Rules are simple. 74 men in mesh shorts try to capture your egg with their nets. Any questions? No? Good. Just go sign up with Montana and Breshley at the Bud Light Lime stage and they’ll give you the organic pecan oil you’ll need for your uniform.

God, it’s like if Trump knew enough about cyber to write a blog.

I find it weird that coaches of national teams don’t have to be from the same country. I get that would really dick us in soccer, but isn’t that kind of the point? To figure out what country is the best at a certain sport? It’s also stupid that in the Olympics coaches don’t get medals. End rant.

The reason why Trump is running a competitive race is very simple

I didn’t “feel unified” the night of 9-11-01, because I was paralyzed and silent while quietly wondering if my uncle was alive and not wanting to ask my parents because I figured if they knew, they’d tell me.

I am gonna expose myself to the ridicule and scorn of the Internet on this one, but come the fuck on, Dad. Your kid jumped onto the field at a professional sporting event, subjecting himself to injury, arrest, or worse. I know you want to be his friend, but you aren’t. You are his dad. He wrote his phone number on his…

Engineer: “Tim, what is the plan on the new phone?”

Cook: “Lose the jack, ain’t no going back. We got little to lose and much to gain because in my brain is a capitalist migraine. If upgrading the accessory becomes necessary then we see double green... shipping cash to Ireland know what I mean?”

It failed because idiots like you are hellbent on willfully misconstruing his protest in order to delegitimatize it.

The dirt hasn't even been shoveled onto Gawkers corpse yet and now you're trying to bring down Deadspin with this bullshit. GTFO of here with these takes

This is Manfred’s dumbest idea, and one he needs to let die. His fundamental misunderstanding lies in is his inability to realize that “traditional defense” is, itself, a shift. Otherwise, three of the infielders would just be standing on the bases for which their positions are named.

If you let a rule change stay for a while it just results in adaptation which may very well make the league better. When the NBA banned hand checking it directly resulted in a shift to a more fast-paced, guard-oriented league that has given us the likes of Stephen Curry and Russell Westbrook and phased out plodding…

You’re very cocky. And very wrong.

But I was anticipating someone to provide this kind of erroneous example because the scenario is counter-intuitive.

Ok, let’s take your numbers (we’ll ignore that no one can swim close to 10 mph!).

Imagine that the swimmer swims a mile downstream moving at 15mph (which includes the…

“If you’re swimming three kilometers, you’ll go back and forth enough that the boost given by the current will be cancelled out by having to take a return trip in the opposite direction.”

That may sound right, but it’s absolutely false!

Swimming back and forth in a lane with a current is actually slower than swimming…

Absolutely. And NBC makes almost no effort to explain the sports. There are basically three rules in the 100, 200, and 400: 1. don’t false start; 2. stay in your lane; 3. the runner who crosses the finish line first wins. See? That wasn’t so hard, was it? But they can’t even manage that, let alone explaining strategy.

Strong argument. Now pardon me, my horse burger is getting cold.

Once golf starts using trained birds to drop the balls into the hole, then you can start comparing it to dressage.
