They’re the youngest team in the league that likes to have fun and don’t have Brian McCann, Madison Bumgarner or any St. Louis Cardinals on the team. They don’t give a shit.

Oh, come on!

There was an entire column in the WSJ 2 weeks ago advocating for the use of portrait video

Ghostbear was fantastic last year in just 64 games - 17 goals, 46 points, 8 PP goals, and 4 OT goals. He was a huge reason the Flyers made the playoffs in a year where expectations were simply for rebuilding.

This represents just about the most pleasant and level-headed discourse I’ve had on this topic on Deadspin. You were in no way insensitive, I’ve gotten over it. Thanks.

Can’t say I’ve heard of or seen any backlash against the victims for coming forward. Took a lot of courage for each of them to do so. People were upset at the sanctions because it mostly punished kids that may not have even been alive for the early allegations who were seemingly innocent in all this and just wanted to…

I also graduated in ‘09. I heard about the investigation before the grand jury testimony and transcript was released and knew about the general jist of the investigation. But I don’t think anyone had any idea of the scope of it.

Nearly as soon as he got here, he started rubbing people the wrong way. With his individual and the team’s performances not living up to billing, combined with…

This point would be more accurate if you named somebody besides Dawkins. That guy practically walks on water in this town.

You’re still missing the point. Michael Phelps won 8 gold medals at the 2008 Olympics. There were 302 gold medals given out at that same Olympics. The point he is making is that Michael Phelps, an individual, won as many gold medals as all of Italy’s representative athletes combined and one more than all of France’s.…

Helps the Yinzers stretch their budgets further.

Damn you and your kinja handle.

Do you actually write headlines for these rags?

This question is a staple of nearly 100% of Reddit’s AMAs.

The difference is Star Wars/Marvel Cinematic Universe versus the Transformers franchise. On one side, you’ve got good movies. On the other, you’ve got Michael Bay.

I made this point to my coworkers who are Villanova alumni. Imagine Villanova wins each game for the next 3-4 seasons in the same manner they did against Oklahoma. People would be blown away in the first season by their dominance, but ratings would probably drop until the tournament just to see that history. The…

If Drew is still on vacation and doesn’t participate, this whole experiment is a waste.
