Avatar was only outstanding because of how amazing that world looked in 3D. So that means he needs to come up with four new technological innovations to get the same reaction out of fans:

Hello. My name is Sully Avatar. Wait, shit. I mean... meow?

“You won’t need genitals where we’re going...[unintelligible screaming]”

Are we just doing James Cameron jokes because Titanic also sucked.

Whatever Happened to Johnny Fucking Football?

“Yeah, this is Brian Sabean. Tell Sandoval there’s no room service....I don’t care what you tell him, make something up. Tell ‘im you’re all out of bamboo.”

Not surprising that he has only one walk and zero runs, though.

The real disappointment was his constant eating prevented him from mating despite the trainers’ best efforts.

“Sandoval has one walk and no hits in seven plate appearances this season.”

I really feel like we need to sympathize with those impacted most by that graphic. My prayers go out to the 40 Rams fans in Los Angeles that have to watch their team at 6:30 AM on October 23rd.

He isn’t on the ballots of Chris Broussard, Bill Simmons, Zach Lowe, Sam Smith, Tim Bontemps, or Chris Haynes, though he is on Ken Berger’s.

It’s crazy that they’d build a stipulation like this into a player’s contract. It seems like all it would due is create animosity between the player and the franchise.
Which is odd because Anthony Davis seems like the face of unity.

Yeah, but then people are just going to think that you’re interested in what they have to say and they’re going to keep saying things in the future. How do I listen while also getting across the point that I never want to do this again?

Drafting a franchise quarterback is always important, which is why the Cleveland Browns do it every 3 years.

Let me explain it to you in Stanley Cup Playoff overtime terms...oh wait, you’re Canadian, you wouldn’t understand that either.

It was a fun night of sports in general; lots of good stuff going down. Made me wish I had Burke’s 124-TV setup at home.

Thanks for stopping by, Simmons.
