Yeah, and I’m not really religious, but I still bow my head when there is some kind of public prayer. How can merely standing still and doing nothing, in order to pay respect to dead victims, possibly be against “your culture”?

Bowling!!

Although do you have houses on both coasts? If you spend 90% of your time in the same state you are probably assuming that you are there no matter how drunk/stoned.

Nice try.

Everything we’re saying about Papa Ball? Those of us who are old enough said the same stuff about Papa Marinovich. It’s not about race. It’s about assholes.

I’m Canadian and just looking at that glowing pick gif is making me agitated.

“We The North” should look North to Minneapolis where there hasn’t been playoff basketball since 2004 before complaining about their playoff performance...

So they let the GM run the draft which will presumably dictate the shape of the franchise over the next few years, and promptly fire him immediately afterwards so that some other guy can take over the GM duties with both players and a coach he hasn’t picked?

If we are talking about ditching things with no real value that are only a waste of effort and resources, why the fuck are you on a sports/joke site when there is world saving to do?

we call this the acceptance phase

I’m a Yankees fan who grew up watching Andy Pettitte snipe fools at first base, so I admit I am biased. But given the MLB’s recent commitment to actually calling balks, maybe the league agrees with you.

Agreed. My RSN is pretty much the only reason I have cable. I like to follow my local NHL and MLB teams ... and the best way to do that is through the local RSN. I’d be loath, however, to pay both the MLB and NHL annual fees to stream the games.

Yeah, one of the reasons why I haven’t gotten rid of cable is because of the ability to watch every SF Giants game. It’s a big deal to me to be able to come home and flip on the game whenever I want to and I don’t want to give that up

Question for the audience: If you cut the cord and had to choose only one channel for sports to subscribe to, what would it be?

In fact, if you’re bad enough at golf, other players actually encourage the foot wedge because nobody wants to sit there for 10 minutes watching you four-stroke your way out of the rough.

Yes, the guy who, as we saw demonstrated again and again this round, has a roster of bona fide under-the-radar perimeter sharpshooters to dish the ball to, deserves to win the MVP. Versus the dude who averaged a triple-double, dragging a team we know is trash—a point also confirmed in this playoff round—to a 6 seed in…

Whoa, whoa, whoa! Don’t we need to have the Pooh Richardson and Christian Laettner jersey retirement ceremonies first?

Much the same here. I’m surrounded by Cardinals and Cubs fans and I miss no opportunity to talk trash. I genuinely despise the Cardinals, so it’s been fun watching them start terribly while the Reds look pretty solid so far. As for the Cubs and their fans, I’m truly happy for them in their success. Still, I’m taking…

Ah it’s not that bad. Don’t get me wrong, I will never watch that shit and I’m definitely not a “fan.”

Unless Rumpelstiltskin is going to take them away as a consequence for lying, I am less than impressed by Cooley swearing on his kids.
