Williams: “Yes, I requested this last year as well when I played in Carolina. Remember, I dyed my dreads pink?”

I think your quarrel is with the rule and not the replay. The replay just improves the umpire’s ability to enforce the rule. If the league wants to change the rule, fine, but I bet most people prefer a bright-line test: if you come off the bag and you are tagged out, then you are out. The alternative — some kind of…

So much for that “they’re getting an education” argument.

Tell me more about your great plan. Just let me lead with the fact that there’s no workable, equitable plan for paying college athletes. Chubb gets paid. What about his backup and his backup’s backup? Do NFL prospects get paid more than scrubs? Seniors more than freshman? Quarterbacks more than punters?

No, it wasn’t. Matt Damon being the new poster boy of racism around here for the intellectually unencumbered who just love to fling poo at some big names, usually followed by *he’s the worst* or something to that effect.

I just read this book twice in a row and there is zero mention of Mindy Park being Korean-American. I’ll re-read it again to make sure, but I’m fairly certain there’s not a single indicator of whatever her ethnicity might be.

I thought Chiwetel Ejiofor was only cast when an Indian actor had to back out at the last minute?

Don’t worry, Brantly, you’re not alone. It doesn’t sound like what we (the people) have defined as a “school shooting”. The term “school shooting” even has a wikipedia and this particular shooting does not fall under the definition. The institution was not targeted, but rather a fight broke out on campus and some…

Since some people are at work, here’s a transcript of all the useful and/or funny content in the video:

That was flat out dumb...

Proposal: if the two WC teams are tied, play best 2 of 3; if they’re not, the better record gets credited with a win going in (so play two to win one). I seem to recall the college WS does (or did) something similar with a double-elimination bracket. Mitigates the buzzsaw advantage of one ace pitcher on the “underdog”…

It’s not like deadspin or Albert would ever make light of a serious situation.

Albert Burneko, professional shamer. Does it get exhausting being better than everyone else?

Hey, a good argument! Thanks!

I am not justifying hitting Arrieta or stupid baseball unwritten rules... But doesn’t this story HAVE to mention that Arrieta- who only hit 10 batters all year- hit two in 6 batters prior to this? Whether you like it or not (I don’t!), that’s still the way this game is played. So at least mention that and dismiss it,…

Salt is cheap, you don’t need that much of it, and it’s your only chance to season the pasta itself, unless you make it by hand.

Sort of the latter. Almost 0% chance the author wrote the headline. If you’re a freelancer or irregular contributor you are almost certainly never writing headlines.

I’d ask someone to explain to me why this is funny, but I’m afraid that question assumes too much.

Of course, an extra full season of Kris Bryant over a replacement is definitely worth more than the maybe-but-probably-not 2/3 of a win over a replacement, which could’ve swung a maybe-but-probably-not 8% advantage.
