The Ghost of Peter Norman

Losing your job and having your life ruined is the kind of thing that can happen in the social media era if you choose to be a racist asshole out in the real world where everyone can see and take video. Given the tone of your post, seems you’ve already figured out you should keep all the nasty things you believe to

Westbrook is a completely stacked athletic marvel who would absolutely whip the shit out of Mr. Keisel.  I pull you out of the grays to say as much, and in hopes of a good ol’ fashion pile-on from others.

The thing I loved about this story, is Keisel couldn’t help but tell on himself. People (dipshits in particular) seem to forget that professional athletes play at an incredibly elite level, with the most insane shit talkers on earth. These shit talkers are all programmed to spend every minute of the game trying to get

A Magary is never late, nor is he early, he arrives precisely when he gets out of intensive care.

He was Drew the Gray. After his battle with (the Balrog? for all we know) we believed him gone forever, but he has returned as Drew the White to help us destroy Sauron.

I’m such a Deadspin fanboy that I hate Barstool Sports despite the fact that I’ve never visited their site.

Deion Sanders was asked by one team to take a written test they’d devised.  After finding that they were drafting in seventh place, he said “I’ll be long gone by the time you pick.  I’m not doing a test.”

Question I would ask would be, “If required, are you willing to accept that your team cheerleaders will be asked, in fact coerced, to pose topless in photoshoots and work as escorts for rich men, in some Mexican resort?”

Just want to wish the ref a speedy recovery as he recovers from having the stick surgically removed from his a**.

Deconstruction of harmful worldviews is a process, not an action. It’s engaging in the process that makes you a good person. It’s progress that makes you a better person.

I wish more people were able to acknowledge that having an “-ist” thought IN AND OF ITSELF does not make someone a bad person. Having an bigoted thought, and not recognizing it for what it is, not working to address the issues that have lead to that thought, not recognizing the flaw in the thinking, and not making

I’m not really criticizing her for not wanting to sign it. My post is just about how it wasn’t a “Moderate Democrat vs Scumbag Republican” election in the Senate. I generally dislike going “Monday Morning Quarterback” when it comes to political strategy, because it’s a complicated mess, we only see a small portion of

For what it may be worth, I think this a great comment. To take one video out of the context of a long career and form a lynch mob is not productive. Also appreciate your following comment re: confederate flag. It almost sounded like she single-handedly went out and put it up herself. 

I forget exactly when this happened, but probably 8-10 years ago the NCAA added pitch clocks: 20 seconds with no one on, and at that same time there was a 90 second clock between innings (120 for TV games). Of all of the games I worked after this was enacted, I had to call a 90 second violation once (stickler coach

The thing that has always pissed me off about Manfred and his stupid fucking game speed ideas is that he and MLB appear completely unwilling to address something that actually bothers players: the length of time spent standing around in between innings, after regular warm-ups have taken place during playoff games. 

He’s the left’s Ron Paul, saying whatever his disillusioned base wants to hear without ever giving any specifics about how he’ll do it. All the while profitting from it in questionable ways. (I won’t even begin to consider him seriously until we see both his and his wife’s financials.) Not surprising that much of his

Fucking THANK YOU.  It’s not because I don’t LIKE him.  It’s because he’s a slimy grifter pretending to be White People Santa. 

Not only that, but he promised to join the party after the 2016 election and then reneged on that promise.

He’s a snake oil salesman.  Grifters gonna grift.  

congrats to Splinter for bringing this to light, showing once again that sunlight is the best way to combat Ricketts
