I think if you’re looking at his overall body of work, one could make an argument that he’s *still* the top player in the NBA (though, I think that argument is thinner this year than it has been in many years). Still, though...he’s old enough now that I don’t necessarily think you can build “around” Lebron. He’s still…

Stories like this lend a shit-ton of credence to the various rumblings, that periodically come out, indicating star players do not want to go to LA specifically because of Lebron.

So, how do you like living in Maryland?

People are saying this.  You really do hear it, more and more.

It’s good thing we have good people like Mike Francesa out here speaking truth to power. Otherwise, we’d all be fooled by things like meteorology and science, which are obviously tools of the Northern Coastal Academic Scientific Elite and meant to sow confusion among otherwise intelligent, hardworking Americans. 

Pfffft.  Sun Chips? Surely those are too “high class” for him. This man eats nothing but plain potato chips...but he wears latex gloves to do so.  Grease, man.  He doesn’t like the grease.

I’ve come to Deadspin for a lot of different things over the years—Magary’s WYTS series, Burneko’s recipes and Wizards stories, and pretty much anything Roth, McKenna, and Thompson write, just to name a few—but I’m not sure there’s anything that has given me as much joy over the years as the LOLMETS tag.

Taco Pope always sounded to me like less of a name, and more of an honorific.

I watched him do live standup once. He was pretty funny. The “Wawa” routine made me laugh.

This is such bullshit. Storm MOTHERFUCKING Duck was the superior name in this bracket, and the ONLY reason it lost to Pontiff Tosser was because of reactionary shitheads who just HAD to vote against it because they felt it was too popular. Storm MOTHERFUCKING Duck should have beaten Cardinal Lobber, and would have…

MATH WAS CREATED BY TERRORISTS!

At this point, I really wish they’d just be honest about what they really mean. Just fucking come out and say it. It’s not “politics” they want to avoid; it’s quite literally *anything* that might hurt the feelings of conservative white men.

Funny, I thought STDs were more of a problem in retirement communities...

Even a German in Tokyo knows it’s best to distance oneself from claiming the Orioles.

Yeah, I’m not sure there’s an argument to be made here. It’s this year, hands down, if for no other reason the Paul being back AND Durant being out for the back half of the series. 

Y’know, if hitters are sick of pitchers showing them up like this they should just hit more home runs off them. 

Hot take: Harden isn’t really as good as we all think he is, and that game was proof.
