Tory (sic) Smith, the traitorous WR? Draw and quarter him, I say.

Reid called Jenkins a “sellout,” as well as—in what might be an NFL first for a player talking about another player—a “neo-colonialist.”

Also in the running for truly unlikable: the Jailblazer Blazers; the early ear “Heatles” Heat; 90s-era Knicks before that Houston-Spree finals run.

No way these guys are as unlikable as the Isiah/Rodman/Laimbeer Pistons. That is HOF unlikable.

I think this Rockets team has a real shot at earning the “Least likable group of players in the league” title previously held by such luminaries as the ‘04-‘06 Detroit Pistons and my own ‘08-‘10 Boston Celtics.

The lunch burger at Peter Luger.

Dammit, I had Eli in my First New York Giant To Use The Phrase “Gets All Sloshy” In A Media Interview pool.

The last few Deadcasts weren't available for me on Google Play Music.  The last one is the recast from 9/27.  Just me or anyone else?

This is what I will always remember about Craig Counsell:

The alphabet is why Atlanta got more words than the Knicks. It has nothing to do with merit, and everything to do with the unbridled optimism of Burneko thinking he has time to do full previews. And then also with the Knicks being a toilet fire.

I’m a big Knicks fan too but dude come on: the toilet fire gif was arguably more attention than the Knicks deserve in an NBA preview.  

God Albert, I really hate the hell out of you for your shitty takes, but mostly just for being way, way funnier than me in your prose. I don’t like this fact, it’s bad! And you can go to hell!

This is just like that time I took the Shah Engineering sign from the firm near my house as a prank. It too involved sign stealing and some angry Indians.

That seems pretty far to go to steal some valor.

Was anyone else curious about the unnamed “brother-in-law” that she used as a human shield in her announcement?

It was surprisingly hard to google him because she’s apparently been married 4 times. It turns out that it’s her current husband’s brother who died in a training accident over a decade before she met her…

I (a woman) once went over to a hook-up’s house, and when he offered me a drink, I told him I’d been drinking bourbon rocks before I came over, so if he had any whiskey I’d like that. He proceeded to pull out four bottles of whiskey, ALL of which were flavored. It was like, vanilla whiskey, cherry whiskey, maple…

Great article. What I especially appreciated was that as a Pats fan I’ve been puzzling why the vast majority of the takes after the game was how awesome Mahomes was while almost actively ignoring how well the Pats offense played. Yet not only did this article acknowledge the Patriots much more than most, it also did a…

...despite the loss, Kansas City has plenty to be proud of...

Why does he put his arms up towards Ryan if he’s just “stumbling”? I don’t get it. Like yes he first stumbles, then he also tries to lunge at his knees. Why does it have to be one or the other? The lunge at the knees is the issue, and if you watch that video and say that definitively never happens during the play,…

I mean, why dive at the quarterback’s leg? He didn’t have to do that and it’s clearly a rule violation to do that. Why do we have to act like it’s so inconceivable to flag and fine that? It’s fine to be like “I disagree” but to act as if Watt like did NOTHING close to remotely wrong here is completely disingenuous.
