And Deadspin just wrote about how important copy editors are 😩

yeah it’s not even that pedantic because it’s super incorrect here

Oh OK:

Forsberg for Erat/Latta. WORST.TRADE.EVER.

you shut your whore mouth, Tommy is an angel.

I’m exhausted with this lazy narrative about the playoffs this year.

Can we please stop with this horseshit?

If there were no salary cap and no max contracts, some teams would undoubtedly spend more, and then all teams would have to spend more, increasing both the potential risk and reward of building a team. 

You do not get any type of rebel or blue collar points for forgoing movie theater popcorn. Once you’ve sold out and gone, you may as well enjoy it.

That’s true, but I think it should be pointed out that Dononvan didn’t settle in Germany for lifestyle reasons, i.e., he wasn’t comfortable over there. He can be criticized for that I suppose, but that happens. Dennis freaking Bergkamp didn’t settle in Serie A for example. In other words, it’s not that he wasn’t good…

I agree, we should probably not be apartheid of this conversation.

By the way, if Deadspin had a whole vertical dedicated to side by side comparisons of local announcers calls of big plays, I wouldn’t object.

That’s the Blazers announce team, that monotone is how they avoid saying “Morris shoots... OH GOD DAMN IT.”
