The Phillie Phanatic, or as Youcis sees him, the Ecuadoran immigrant who came to Philly in the 70s and took two hard-working Americans’ jobs.

Baseball is the only sport that actually looks like America.

All in the game, yo.

Dear sweet suffering savants, they did not actually call it “Peace Through Strength”? Bad enough that we’ve got Conway channeling Goebbels, now we’re getting our policy initiative names from Leni Riefenstahl?

Your saying I need to start drinking soda again (and more beer!) so I can stock up on caps with which to buy goods?

Doc Rivers: Hold me back! Hold me back!

If you’re not from Brazil, it’s hard to understand the magnitude of this tragedy.

It’s entirely possible I’m reading the wrong things into this, but my first thought looking at his face was “this is a man who terrified to be playing football.” It felt like he was a cat that ticked off one more of his 9 lives on the march toward long term brain damage.

Really, any of the 3 thar aren’t the NFL. NBA keeps getting better (though the pure suck of some teams makes some games unwatchable), MLB is timeless fun (if you think the baseball is boring and can devote 4 hours to watching 6 minutes of football, fuck off) and the NHL isn’t at its best right now, but features the…
