Can we do a write in for Billy Haisley's Copa Libertadores article where he'd prefer athletes get attacked and tear gassed instead of moving their match because of "culture"?

I tried to read Jay Kristoff’s first book Stormdancer. For such a hyped book I really just didn’t like it. It’s one of two books I quit reading in the past five years. The other is Bill Simmons Book of Basketball fwiw. I wonder if I should give his new series a shot? At least I have The Obelisk Gate to look forward

A real Schiano Man would sooner cook a mere strip of bacon instead of a pile built fist by fist before he would snitch. Mike McQueary, you are not a Schiano Man.

First sports memory is Jordan switching hands mid-layup against the Lakers in the 91 Finals. Not a sporting event but sports related first memory is waiting 3 hours for Mitch Williams and Jerome Walton to sign autographs at a mall in 1989. I was 7 and it ended right as I was next. Mitch Williams offered to stay and

Rory Reid was a revelation to me. I knew nothing about the guy going in to the season but he just has an affable presenting style and a nice easy chemistry with most of the other presenters. I don’t want to compare too much, because Rory has his own style but when he would start to talk about how the car was making

Jeffrey Dahmer’s trial is the first serious news story I remember paying attention to. At the same the big 3rd grade rumor was that a man dressed as Homey the Clown was kidnapping kids in my town. So the details from Dahmer’s murders instantly became what Homey was going to do to us boys if he caught us.

I’m bummed that io9 doesn’t get a seat at the big boy table anymore to write their own spit in Thiel & Hogan’s face post.

Evans’ strength is in the interview but there are 4 people not counting him in the segment and I just want them to get back to the cars. 2 episodes so I’m not gonna wash my hands of the show but it feels very much like a theme park ride. Engineered thrills, unlike the dangers of say, Jezza trying to pass another suv

FJM nailed it it on the head. I fall within the millenial/gen Y years (1982!) and I turned to my friend last night and told her, “You know, I’m really tired of all this wide-eyed whimsy Dust Bowl dress-up nostalgia shit in music right now.” I think the pants of my soul hiked themselves a little higher after that.

Just reread Preacher last weekend to get ready for the show. I didn’t watch the video because I want to see it with fresh eyes but I’m looking forward to it. I just want to see Jesse and Jody’s last fight on screen.

MattyCollector blows. Remember Toy Guru that used to run that shit show? He sucks. I used to love collecting toys, specifically Soul of Chogokin and Saint Cloth Myth, but I dug a little bit of everything. MattyCollector and their shit ass Voltron release killed the hobby for me. I keep that stupid cheap hunk of

Can’t wait to see your work on io9! I really enjoy your writing and the articles on comics are some of my favorites on all the gawker sites.

WW1 is such an untapped setting, very excited to see it in a big AAA game! If there is a Lost Battalion mission or DLC I will lose my mind.

Somewhere out there some poor bastard pre-ordered the Rift and kickstarted the Coolest Cooler and is just losing their mind right now.

What # Earth in the Marvel Universe has Walter Sobchak as Captain America? “Say what you will about the tenets of Hydra, Dude, at least it’s an ethos!"

The Bears are gonna draft Connor Cook and fans are going to look back at the Jay Connor Cutler Cook era the same way Kimmy Schmidt remembers her 15 years with Reverend Richard Wayne Gary Wayne.

I was all set to make a joke about Fnatic pulling out due to injuries because I don’t know anything about the esports scene other than the articles on Kotaku. Then I realized I don’t want to be a shitty old man that reflexively calls stuff dumb because he is too lazy to try and understand what younger people like. So

Naesean Howard’s picture up there looks like it’s from a video game. It could be used as an example when explaining what the uncanny valley is.

MoO2! I remember an unfortunate series of turns where a crippling Antaran attack coupled with attacks by two other powers left me with just my home Star system and a damaged remnant of my fleet. I went to the library the next day and asked about books with famous speeches. I sat in front of a PC and recited a cut and

Voltron and Starvengers (Getter Robo G) were my absolute favorite shows growing up. I watched all of Voltron Force but around the time Pidge became Deadmau5 and Voltron fought a concert stage it completely lost the spirit of old Voltron. Heck, even the Sprite ads with all the rappers got it better than Voltron Force
