“Also, Dude, Oriental is not the preferred nomenclature. Asian, please.”

I’m not a fan of for-profit insurance. I think it is a really poor and unsustainable model. I just don’t fool myself into believing insurance companies are the primary drivers of health care costs. Because they objectively are not. Providers of medical services and products drive the costs of health coverage services.…

Which will of course never happen because money. Same reason football won’t ever go anywhere despite its inherent dangers. They’ll say that they knew what they were getting into, or some such nonsense.

Actually, we know the questions and the answers. We’ve known them for decades. Boxing has always been a sport built on allowing the impoverished an avenue to what they perceive to be wealth and notoriety if only they will beat each other to a pulp for the entertainment of the privileged.

Can you make a sport where you win if you give your opponent a serious brain injury acceptably safe?

“Garrett replied to a fan and provided a few more details about the encounter, which he described as a ‘pillow tap.’”

“If it brings good people to our town and increases our property value, I’m good with that.”

This is small-town, religious-conservative America aptly summed up in a single sentence.

I realistically can’t think of ONE thing that LeBron wouldn’t be able to afford if he lost ALL income from China overnight. And I’m counting a mansion with 4 Aventadors as one thing.
Dude has earned over a BILLION. But he’s worried that not ignoring people who don’t want to be sent to slave camps if they anger their…

Yeah, I really don't expect your average (or goat) basketball player to be able to say anything intelligent about China. But it is pretty fucking obvious the NBA is ignoring human rights violations because they have dollar signs in their eyes. Pretty fucking simple. 

Floyds, ranked:

Say what you will about Jill Ellis’s decision making, but not playing your 37 year old aging star for all 630+ minutes of game time was probably a pretty sound decision. 

You can’t turn down a player with that much SWAG.

This font’s italics don’t slant far enough to the right to emphasize what pure chaos this might be!

I understand the players are caught between a rock and a hard place. But this has to be one of the most craven capitulations to money I have ever seen by a major athlete. Should have kept quiet. His rationale is bullshit.

I salute your willingness to sacrifice for the greater good.
