I guess I don’t read it the same way (admittedly I haven’t seen anything beyond your blog). I would rather the ball tossed to me by a guy wearing a Cubs jersey on the field than the ball given to me by a guy wearing a Cubs jersey in the second row. If this guy truly is the official ball moderator at Wrigley, he should…

I don’t see how the fact that the guy was “nice” earlier excuses what he did in the moment. The ball was clearly meant for the little kid. I don’t care if it was his first ball or his 50th. I don’t care if the guy saved 100 puppies on his way to the game. He interjected himself into a transaction that didn’t concern…

OK, but we still all agree, fuck Zack Hample, right?

Journalists would write these articles about any athlete who went from guaranteed 1st rounder to completely undrafted twice - in a draft that has 1,200+ selections - due to a crime they committed as juvenile. If Heimlich got taken in the 5th round we could speculate on disparate treatment. But he wasn’t taken at all.

What is the maximum income a criminal should be allowed to earn after completing his or her sentence?

So, I guess he should be forced into exile? How much more does he need to be punished in your eyes beyond the punishment deemed appropriate by the justice system? 

“Her life is forever ruined because of his actions.”

That that continues to exist in this day and age is a surprise.

God bless Marlins Man and his cohort for doing the thing every Marlins fan wanted to do but couldn’t.

I don’t think you have to believe malice on his part to think what he did was wrong. I would categorize what he said as careless or inconsiderate instead of mean or evil. However, when I say something inconsiderate or careless, I still apologize and take responsibility. That’s what I think this.

It was for me. It was huge when I was first getting into sports. Before Space Jam, those were the go-to sports movies for the boys I knew.

“Imagine Mr. Deez, a youth hockey team sponsored by our law firm...”

“a boring mess of a narrative relying on sentimentality and stock characters” also known as a sports movie.

Eat an asshole. All I was saying is cyclists risk their lives by riding on streets where cars fly by. I don’t understand it, but it’s their right and they choose to do it.

I never quite understood why bicyclists risk their lives by riding on the roadways of busy streets. I get it, it’s your right, but knowing how drivers are, why risk it? I used to see cyclists on Route 8 in Pittsburgh where cars were zooming by at 65mph. Dumb. For him, it’s gotta be even worse. The roads in Italy…

Hahaha.

Right! Like how soft do you have to be in order to be offended by this?

People don’t own words, that’s just not how it works.

This is “hating on black people?” They’re just singing along to a song.

This isn’t really hating on black people at all. It’s a group of girls having fun singing along to a popular song.
