Just so it doesn’t get lost in the shuffle, he gave a 13 year old quaaludes and then anally raped her. So, go ahead and talk about how Americans are sooo uptight about sex, etc.

I always feel very bad for Ms. Geimer when I read about him because I know she wants to put this whole thing behind her.

In this case “Aladdin” has kept many jumps ahead of Chris Brown’s intellect.

During the first Gulf War, three of my friends were minding their business walking on the sidewalk and a passing car called them “sand n*****s”. Since my friends were Indian, one of the helpfully shouted back, “No you moron, we’re from India, we’re dot heads.”

So Chris Brown opened his mouth and proved Aziz Ansari’s analogy right?

I feel like a little brother died. Crazy as it is since I never met him. I’m a baseball geek and lifelong Royals fan. I follow these guys from the their signing to the big leagues. I watched him pitch in person in AA in 2012 and then live in Game 6 of the WS. This is devastating.

Do not include Belcher’s name on this list. Fuck that dude.

I’m a Giants fan and, to this day, I get chills when I think about Yordano after the 2014 World Series. He gave up 2 runs in I think 13 or 14 combined innings and made us look like complete idiots. Furthermore, he was just scary on the mound and my friends and I kept commenting on the fact that KC had their own…

ICYMI, this was moving.

Yeah, there is a weirdly close relationship with Kansas Citians and the Royals. Even during the decades of terrible ball, Opening Day was a work holiday for a lot of people. If you spend any time in KC, you pick up on the fans’ closeness to the club. The death of a player will hit these fans harder than in other…

What a fucking tragedy. Doesn’t matter what I thought of him a few months ago. He was a player with friends and family and teammates and boundless potential that will go forever unknown.

Recall that one of Ventura’s greatest games- and one of the 2014 season’s greatest moments- came in tribute to the Cardinals’ Oscar Taveras, himself killed in a car crash during the World Series:

Except if you’re a Royals fan like me and fucking devastated. The thing about living in a city like this, in a ‘small market’, is most of us have a real connection to these players. Like they’re family. We see them out on the town and we don’t bother them all the time. They don’t need security when they go to a…

Yo’s imperfections, emotions, raw talent, sense of humor, and fire made him a unique combination of larger than life while still being incredibly relatable. He was frustrating at times, but always real, always entertaining, and always a favorite of mine. This doesn’t feel like the death of a celebrity. It feels like…

When I said Yordano Ventura needed to stop acting like a douche bag on the mound this isn’t what I meant, 2017.

He had the talent to be truly elite. Unfortunately, he was a complete headcase and everyone kept waiting for the day the kid would finally “mature” and “grow up”. And now that will literally never happen in any sense of those terms.

I remember watching him pitch one of his best games while paying tribute to his friend Oscar Tavares, who also died in a car wreck in the DR. It was emotional stuff. The world is cruel sometimes.

This is absolutely horrible. Gutted. He will be truly missed.

Goddamn this news.
