Here’s the thing about Eli. Of the three QBs in his draft class, he’s clearly the worst. But he’s also never missed a start in his career. So yeah, Roethlisberger is better, but 16 games of Eli is probably more valuable than 10 games of Ben, especially if one of the games he misses is a playoff game.

And that attention to detail in his fielding won him 18 Gold Gloves.

Goddamn it. I can’t stop laughing at this. He named 19 people!!!

Nothing beats Marreese Speights. Nothing.

I’m starring this partially because you’re right, but mostly for the Ronald Wimberly reference.

If I could photoshop a crying Superman holding a dead RGIII, I’d do it.

If you’re dumb enough to pay $12 for a sandwich — a fucking sandwich — you have much bigger problems than not getting sides.

Good god. Why was Leslie in Houston on MLK Jr. Day? I would be terrified to be in Houston on MLK Jr. Day.

“John, your No. 1 receiver is 53 years old.”

Thank you. This is White Privilege at its finest. White liberal also used to yell at MLK Jr. and others for criticizing LBJ. Before that, they yelled at black leaders who criticized FDR. Going back further than that, they mocked Frederick Douglass for being highly critical of Lincoln. Each time, the sentiment is the…

Yeah. I mean, I understand why this is in the news, but there’s a part of me that feels like we didn’t have a right to know this. Her parents have been through enough.

Cuban Linx is probably the best Wu-Tang album, and Nas has the best verse on it.

Odom’s had such a shitty life. His dad was a heroin addict, his mom died from cancer when he was a kid, and his six-month-old baby died from SIDS, which is one of the most fucked up ways you can lose a child. And despite it all, he managed to still be a really nice guy.

Sly Stone. I could listen to the Dead Presidents soundtrack every day.

When asked in an interview with New York Magazine about Straight Outta Compton and misogyny, F. Gary Gray gave quite possibly the shittiest answer imaginable:

This is off topic, but I’d never seen that list of the richest black actors. It’s kind of interesting that three of the top 10 are former rappers.

I mean, I think we’re all glad he survived, but radiation poisoning really turned Mike Scioscia into an asshole.

The best part about this interview is the way she describes putting money and effort into making sure that Todd Akin was her opponent. Calling him out as being “too conservative,” because she knew that would make Republican primary voters support him, is brilliant. And she’s almost laughing as she talks about it!

We’ve all been saying for years that this bubble is eventually going to burst, but at this point I really don’t know. Did you see the ratings for the Hall of Fame game this weekend? They were ridiculous! It’s a preseason game! Peterson and Roethlisberger didn’t even play! Millions of people tuned in to watch Landry…

Modern rock does almost nothing for me most of the time, but every now and then something completely random grabs me for reasons I can never explain. Songs for the Deaf is a damn good album.
