I thought Federer looked finished in 2013, Nadal looked finished in 2015, and Djokovic looked finished in 2017. Wrong—and laughably so—all three times. At some point they have to truly be finished, but I’m not going to bother predicting when that might be.

If it voted for Barry Goldwater in 1964 and wasn’t his home state, it’s the Deep South.

Why does everyone forget that Rutter finished third behind Watson *and* Jennings in that IBM Challenge? I would say that technically counts as having lost to Jennings as well.

Also, he used to date Katherine Harris, the woman who was somehow allowed to be Florida’s Secretary of State in 2000 while also being Bush’s campaign chair in Florida. Readers may recall that, uh, the 2000 election came down to a few disputed ballots in Florida (and then a Supreme Court decision), which led to Bush’s…

Well, he *was* a lifelong Republican

Either he isn’t really germophobic, or he became germophobic after 2015.

And that was two years after he signed an executive order sending Japanese-Americans to internment camps.

That is not at all like what happened with the June 9th meeting at Trump Tower, and aside from that, ordering an accomplice to commit a crime should absolutely be a crime itself.

He is to the baseball world what Sherrod Brown is to the politics world.

Uh, yes? When I was in school, a student could be charged with an academic honor code violation if it could be shown that he knew that another student was cheating, and neglected to report it to school officials—even if the first student himself didn’t cheat on anything. Simply failing to report wrongdoing was itself…

Also baffling: not indicting Don Jr for anything even though we literally have email documentation showing that he knew Russian agents were trying to interfere with the election and he met with them believing that they’d give him dirt on Clinton.

I’d be fine with “He so thoroughly pissed off traditionally-Republican Cuban voters in Miami-Dade County with this move that he lost Florida in 2020 and with it, the election.”

The Sid Bream game involved an umpire change, too.

How many Super Bowls would Brady have if he’d been the one drafted by the Packers and playing under McCarthy? How many Super Bowls would Rodgers have if he’d been taken by New England and played for those Belichick teams?

It’s not so much he’s been mediocre in some of the Packers’ playoff losses. It’s that unlike New England, the Packers can’t win if their quarterback’s mediocre. 

That’s the thing, we literally know Don Jr WANTED to commit a crime! We actually have the email where Don Jr’s told “This is about the Russian government’s attempt to help your father” and he responds “If it’s what you say, I love it.” It’s like if we know he wanted to rob someone, failed to rob that person, and then…

I was prepared for the possibility that the special counsel wouldn’t find smoking gun evidence of turmp *himself* having been aware enough to have committed a crime in this instance, but how can he say “no one associated with the campaign conspired or coordinated with Russia?” We literally have a letter from Rob…

It’s not supposed to be a scalping motion, because scalping involved horizontal movement, while the chop is up and down. I think it’s supposed to be reminiscent of old Westerns in which Native American warriors (braves) would wield tomahawks while reading horses, and the galloping motion of the horse would generate…

Your reminder that Wisconsin Democrats beat the GOP in every statewide election last year and won the state assembly vote by over 8 points, but the Wisconsin GOP won 63 out of 99 state assembly seats due to extreme gerrymandering at the beginning of the decade.
