It’s times like these I wish Dan were employed by some sort ofsports adjacent blog to provide he and his colleague’s no nonsense flaming hot takes on the debacle that was the end of that NFL game last night. 

Carvana offered me more than 3x more than Vroom for my old Impreza and I didn’t understand it until now. Classic start-up business model...

Or you could think of it as a ‘discount’ for the old people that don’t trust technology anyway and don’t want to pay for it. For everyone asking for it to be a standard feature, there’s another person complaining about having to pay for tech they don’t want. (Example: My new (used) car has navigation and it annoys me

Closest CarMax to me is over 2 hours away.

Yup. Just bought a car. There’s nothing they can do to the building or experience that makes many people’s second largest purchase (and biggest known guaranteed money losing endeavor due to depreciation) something totally enjoyable instead of stressful. At least not for people that worry about money. Ha. Just get me

I don’t have any objection with Deadspin staff standing up to management. I have an objection to management, and as such, that’s the same management that here, so seems as good a place as any considering I’m not in the Jalopnik grays. The artists formerly known as Deadspin staff were great.

Yeah. I have this problem with morning routine and the muscle memory of going to the search bar, typing “de” and then “enter” because google already knows what I want and being there before I even realized where I was going.

Deadspin’s article for Sunday night football is 77 words and 4 linked tweets, including one to a longer, better article about the game at (presumably ‘stick to sports’ competitor) ESPN? Dafuq?

I just got a 2016 Flex a couple weeks ago. It’s a practical car lovers dream.

More awkward to watch than the Brady looking for a high five gif.

Punters aren’t getting wrecked in the way RBs are, which leads to their earlier decline. They’re putting their neck on the line.

...and having this pointed out to me makes me feel old today. 18 year olds weren’t around for 9/11. Mind blown by simple math. 

While you’re down there could you grab that football Sparano buried a few years back?

Spoiler alert: Office campus that tries to provide all the amenities to keep you working as long as possible (cafeteria, free treats, sleeping pods, etc), then treats people crappy when they try to leave said office campus! Shocking.

Cosigned, 2019. 

Conan’s been interviewed (on several podcasts at least) presenting this as his choice not TBS...being burned out by the traditional late night set up, not wanting to do such a long show, having boring second guests and it being a grind to produce that much comedy every day, etc. I think he’s doing just fine and it’s

Subaru or Saabaru Turbo...

That’s like 97% of engineering. Cost above and beyond expected useful life is waste.

That’s true. If you pay full price on an item at Kohl’s you are getting the ultimate screw job of screw jobs. 

The listing you linked says “only 3 left.” They’re selling themselves short like a TJ Maxx “compare at” price!
