So you want to give Pillar (and, clearly, yourself) a pass for using the word while rendering judgment on an entire city. Because of sports.

Honestly, that might even add a layer of complexity, and I love it.

In no way am I trying to belittle here, because it’s cool that Roberts did this. But my understanding of what this means is that the organizers were able to make more authentic their very real competition predicated on a game that tries to virtually recreate a real-world event that pretends to be actual competition

Did you actually take the world’s largest Viagra? Because you are constantly the first or second person commenting on each of these stories, and your constant chest thumping about your favorite baseball team is fucking pathetic.

I don’t know what you think an inch is, but no, she didn’t.

Scale of 1-10, how much does it suck that the country hasn’t actually changed and become more white, racist, sexist, intolerant and anti-intellectual for you since January? Seems like you guys are taking it pretty hard.

Really no doubt in my mind that Fizdale is going to find an envelope with 15 $2,000 checks on his desk tomorrow morning.

This is literally the only time the word “wins” appears on the whole blog page. Who said wins matter? Every stat the author mentions is legitimate.

Why did this internet comment have a title?

Got a lot of experience taking elbows to the head when you’ve fallen to your knees during non-pugilistic athletic competition, do ya?

Holy shit, that is the smoothest, most non-violent motion I’ve ever seen produce 97 mph. If his elbow isn’t made of dry pasta, he could throw like this for a decade.

You seem fun.

I mean, I get your point, but any viewer who would find that humiliating (not necessarily including you) needs to check themself. If anything, it’s important to see that he’s got his eyes open and he’s alert, even if he’s shaken up.

No. He’s basically the only thing the Sabres have going right now, the GM expressed a desire to have McDavid instead of him and he put up with it. It’s Eichel’s team. If they get to use him as their golden boy promotional peg, he gets to point out how shitty the team is.

Barkley pretty clearly touches the guy three times, including a little tap on the chin. Doesn’t justify clocking him, but holy shit, anyone with eyes can tell that wasn’t “calmly talking.” There was some shit-talking going on there.

Retiring numbers has been, and always be, dumb as hell.

LOL, Toronto fans are the most butthurt fans in every sport, and it brings me great joy.

I’ve been saying for a while: Quidditch would be a totally legitimate sport on the level of ultimate frisbee if they just got rid of the friggin’ broom. Watch a clip of the game and imagine them playing without the stick-between-the-legs gimmick. It works.

Holy shit, AJ is 39. That is mind-boggling.

I feel like I noticed him talk to the umpire after a couple of Porcello’s pitches, too. If it’s an instructional thing because he’s just SUCH AN EAGER LEARNER OH WHAT A GOOD BOY, fine, but do we think he’s complaining about strike zones? Because LMAO.
