“Gender” is a big sloppy mess and the answer is no. “Sex” (ie, what your chromosomes are) is essentially binary, but there are some asterisks. The problem here, though, is that you can have an XX woman that’s a woman by any justifiable scientific standard, but has some other mutation that’s giving her masculine…

Sarah, I always really enjoy your writing and this was no exception. This whole thing is so ethically murky, and I honestly don’t know if there any truly fair answers. Semenya and other intersex runners didn’t choose to be born with physical traits that give them an advantage any more than Kevin Durant did, but…

As a Rangers fan, I can tell you that the Hagelin loss was big (he’s a perfect fit for AV’s system) but the Rangers weren't getting to the finals this year regardless.

Well, I care.

We will never regret accurately reporting sports news.

The private sector acts solely in its own interest, nothing more and nothing less. It’s not much of a surprise that Delta would want to get paying customers in more efficiently, just as it’s not much of a surprise that Walmart and Amazon treat their employees like cattle.

Well, I can almost taste your tears, and they will be delicious.

Aww, that’s precious.

Underrated and overrated are the worst categories in sports journalism. “Is Steph Curry’s defense better or worse than your perception of the public’s perception of Steph Curry’s defense?”

They are constantly in the offensive zone, and even when they aren’t getting goals out of it, the other team has no chance to get in an offensive rhythm. When they’re at their best, the 5 on 5 looks like a Pens power play.

Phil Kessel and Joe Thornton in the Stanley Cup Final. Somewhere, Kevin Paul Dupont is weeping into his Product 19.

Fuck me this team is good. If there’s such a thing as a one-sided seven game series, this was it. The Lightning were the better team for all of game one most of game four (but still nearly blew a four goal lead) and that was it. As a Lightning fan, knowing they lost to clearly the better team doesn’t exactly make me…

Barry, I thoroughly enjoy the daily 9 AM hockey article. Thanks

Sounds like you had a shitty day.

also, this...

That's a Clowne Plaza, bro

Look. I know it’s Bryce Harper and all, but this isn’t news. Everyone knows when you haven’t even had the chance to stroke a dong in a while, when you finally get one it’s gonna shoot the fuck outta there.

the report says stories on “sensitive topics” were regularly forwarded to women on staff to informally sign off on
