Please don’t screw this up, Caps. These ain’t the ‘98 Red Wings you’re facing in the Finals, they’re an expansion team with everyone else’s off-cuts that for most of us, the novelty has well and truly worn off. If you were going to win one, it had to be this way. Just get Ovi his Cup and restore balance to the Force.

In the first three quarters, yes. Then the Celtics get back within 2-5 points late and Lebron has to hit the dagger for the storybook ending. Lather, rinse, repeat.

No doubt these kids did an incredibly dumb thing and deserve punishment to the extent the law allows, but can we move past prison rape jokes once and for all?

I admire your dedication to the bit.

Every damn word of this. I’ve sat and listened to four straight years of god worship every time Curry and the Warriors so much as excuse themselves after a fart, and at the same time wondering if my Rockets would ever be able to mount a serious challenge to take down one of the best teams the NBA has or ever will see;…

Bravo. I would like to subscribe to your newsletter.

Maybe it’s my feeble foreign brain that was raised on soccer, but I fail to understand why the national anthem has to be played/performed before games at all unless it features, you know, a national team representing their country against another one. Otherwise it just looks like a blusterous weekly circle jerk of…

“And the hoooooome of theeeeeee... ba-da-da-da-daa...”

I didn’t even notice the frowny-eye headlights at first, but it reminds me of a quote from the SRT-4 episode of RCR where he describes them as looking “like a tweener throwing a tantrum because Mom found his weed again.”

I’m willing to give Tyler the benefit of the doubt here, only because he’s never been afraid to double down on an idiotic take before, so if he really was trying to say “Bush Did 9/11” I can’t see him suddenly walking that back.

I know you meant two, and you’re probably right, as much as I would love to see them close out the series on GSW’s home court the way they stunned the building last night.

As a Rockets fan living in Ohio, I both relish and dread the idea of a Cavs-Rockets Finals. I may just stay home for the entire month of June.

I don’t know which one I’m enjoying more, this or the Harden dunk.

Sadly, there were no lynx in the description.

He’d never get it off the start line; just generate enough wheelspin and smoke in the hope that Michael Avenatti won’t see him when he comes by on the next lap.

Nice Price for what it is, but not for me personally.

I wish it was as easy as shrugging off the 15-year experiment with an “oh well”, packing my bags and returning to Australia - and I’ve contemplated it a time or two since November 2016.

Bloody Kiwis... even when I try to give the place a leg up, it still goes awry.

My two elementary school-age daughters live 2.5 hours away from me in a different part of the state (I’m divorced from their Mom). Every single time I hear about a new school shooting, I wonder if/when the wheel, when spun on its more than weekly basis, will land on their state, their community, their town, their…
