“There’s a commenter commenting on a grown man crying in a video rather than about how a young boy consoled a fellow person who was upset.” - Actually when you put it that way, he definitely belongs in the comment section of this blog

What’s your walkout song for your first MLB at bat?

Follow-up question - who on the Deadspin Staff survives the longest. Solo and Hunger Games style

Does Billy actively hate all soccer?

My oldest sports memory perfectly coincides with my oldest news memory. It’s the 1991 Super Bowl. I remember an absurd amount of what was going on in my house that night. It’s also where I learned enough about the Gulf War to understand it (my earliest news memory)

Probably more skillful, but that’s not the conversation (and I’m much better at hitting a curler or a knuckler than I am kicking it 100 yards). I’m arguing most don’t have the power to kick it that far off a punt and if they do it’s going to the corner flag and not the net

I can probably kick a football about 55-60 yards on a low arc?

I think it’s reasonable to assume that unless your handle is ChrisKluwe a Deadspin commenter doesn’t have the talent of a semi-pro keeper. Also, I still think you’re over estimating if you include the pace needed to get it there before the defenders but thats tough to prove

I’ve played soccer for 26 years, including in college. You are over-estimating your ability to kick a ball accurately 110 yards off of a punt. I doubt you could do that part of it, add in that the goalie above did it with enough pace to not allow the defenders to catch up to it.

Wait i’m in my office now. Should there be pokemon in here?

What’s the wager? I’ll put money on you can’t in 8 tries

Well that explains why the story isn’t “Ronaldo has goal and an assist and shockingly leads Portugal to Euro Final on the same day Messi gets 21 months for tax evasion”

Do you actually just hate soccer but Deadspin makes you write about it? It feels like you never enjoy anything

I’m 31 and it’s definitely the Gulf War. Most distinctly, I remember watching the Giants Bills Superbowl with Whitney singing the national anthem and all of the news around the war.

In the non-juicing era 35+ HRs was considered an elite power hitter.....

Re: Token Caveat - a lot of surgeons, first responders, soldiers, etc. are assholes too

Found the guy voting for Trump everyone! Just look for the piece of shit in the comment section and it’s easy to find them

Counterpoint: No

You wanna drink out of a shit colored cup, you go right ahead internet gender neutral person. I think there’s an internet video for you too. It’s got two other girls in it!

I don’t know, I am perfectly okay with the red and blue party system.
