I'm a regular LeBatard listener, although usually a day behind because I listen to the podcasts at work.  I just heard this outburst a couple hours ago and it really was Dan just losing his shit.  He kept kicking producers out every time they tried to interrupt him or push him off it.  It was all jazz hands and…

You want someone, who has single-mindedly chased excellence for 30 years, to stop their career so your “feel good” isn’t affected? God damn, sports fans are the worst, entitled babies out there. Who cares how long she wants to play? It’s her career and her passion. Nobody talks about Jordan with the Wizards anymore.…

Throat chop!  It works for the Nature Boy.

Nah, man. You don’t want people to “understand history". You want people to swallow American Exceptionalism without question. If you look at the US through the lens of actual history, we’re pretty crappy.  

“I guess I just don’t see the darkening as something as terrible as the overall fact that Kaepernick has been made into some GOP bogeyman for simply asking that American care about black lives and that the general reaction is not horror.”

Both times I have been with the little man and danger reared its head, I sure as fuck didn’t walk him closer to it.  "You get in that car/house right now!  And find your mother!"

Edit: nevermind.  Splinter sucks balls.  I forgot what website I was on.  

The sun will go supernova because of bad dads?  

There’s also a Frenchman out in the world who probably refers to Vince Carter by that nickname.  

Don’t make a pithy mumble rap joke in a story about a kid being murdered.  Let’s be better than Deadspin comment-leavers.

Every week, the mailbag makes me want to shake people by the shoulders. 

Oh I'm sorry you can't find a bunch of Bernie worship outside of Splinter.  That must be so hard for you.  

Such a great record. I have been looking for my CD for several months so I can listen to it in the car.  One of my all time favorite groups.  

I’m still dumbstruck, even as much as we know about racist morons, that a hooded sweatshirt is seen as a sign of “thugs”.  It's the perfect light jacket for mild weather.  What the fuck is wrong with people?!  

All you really need is Bernie, Facebook, and a Russian dictator.

It’s so stressful in that moment when you had 89 rings, got hit by some stupid robot wasp, and you’re scrambling just to snag a couple before they disappear. I wonder if Joe was hearing the running-out-of-air music by the end.

Jacob Riis agrees.

200 ladybugs shipped in a little styrofoam container from Fisher Scientific is not the same thing. Maybe we should assume that among the thousands of people involved in this part of agriculture, someone has had a couple brainstorming sessions about how to do this more efficiently.  We don't have to entertain dumb…

You want to see people making up nonsense on the fly, go watch an improv group.  We're trying to pick a presidential candidate.  

I know there's a lot of competition for the title, but Betsy DeVos might be the worst human being in the Trump administration.
