The people who make the “Sharapova is just more attractive” argument are hilarious. Maria could play an entire match naked and it wouldn’t get as much attention as Serena did when she wore that catsuit.

Goddamn it. +1

“Outside of RG3, no QB wastes more energy honing his brand image than Cam Newton.”

Outside of point guard in the NBA, there might not be a position in sports right now that’s deeper than first base in MLB. Goldschmidt, Cabrera, Votto, Gonzalez, Rizzo, Freeman, and Hosmer are all great, Texeira and Pujols aren’t at their best anymore but they’re having great seasons, and even Lucas Duda is really…

The last three posts on this site are about an athlete punching a man he thought was a woman, a pair of teammates charged with rape and sexual assault, and a recent MVP accused of gang rape. Oh, and this morning three people were murdered on live television.

“I’ve been waiting to mail this goddamn package for like... nine months!”

I hate the preseason too, but I don’t think you can completely get rid of it. For a great example, look at Victor Cruz. If he hadn’t put up fantastic preseason stats, he’d have never made the Giants roster. Five months later, he was doing the salsa in the Super Bowl after a 1,500 yard season. Regular starters don’t…

So a shitty writer gets paid seven figures to single-handedly fuck up a high profile launch of an important website, and then gets hired at Fox Sports for the second time after being hired by ESPN for the second time.

This might be my favorite Isley Brothers song:

They’re setting up the Lucas/Maya thing, which makes more sense than Riley/Lucas, but it would be more exciting if Lucas had anything resembling a personality. I get that he’s the straight man, but you can be the straight man without being boring (Ben from Parks and Rec comes to mind). I don’t even know how to…

I checked out one random episode because Herbie Hancock was in it, then I decided to give a few other episodes a try. The pilot was awful, but I gave it a few more chances and it got a lot better. And even when it’s bad, Maya gets some legitimately great lines. She’s a sharp kid, and you can tell the girl who plays…

In 2005, the Bengals went 11-5, Carson Palmer played brilliant football, and the team went into the playoffs as a legit Super Bowl contender. On their first play in the postseason, Palmer completed a 66 yard pass, the longest completion in Bengals playoff history. Palmer blew out his ACL on the play, and was never the…

I don’t know why this is the first thing that came to mind, but...

So many people have no idea they had a second album, because for some reason it got very little attention. It’s not as good as the first, but that would have been hard to do — it’s really, really good. They actually had four albums, but only the first two feature all four members.

At their best, The Pharcyde were as good as damn near any hip hop group ever, and their second album never really got the attention it deserved.

My favorite defense people offer to justify violently beating children is “My mom/dad hit me and that’s what kept me off the streets.” As if those kids “running wild” in the streets weren’t beat by their parents too.

“As I would push him over in his chair immediately to assert my dominance and supremacy like a lion does in the wild.”

The truth is, most of these shows are rough when they first start. Wilmore was just as good in his first few months as Jon Stewart was in his first few. We just have less patience now because there’s so much competition out there. Also, Noah has bigger shoes to fill than Jon did, so people won’t be as willing to give…
