I love how fat guy looked so indignant after the fact, as if the bat had been tossed to him by a player and the guy behind reached over to grab it. That bat was fair game for either.

"I want to wreck this league together."

I'm guessing his friends call him 'BJ'?

Newsflash, distaste does not equal hate. So I guess your contention is that sexual preference is the only thing that's innate in humans? Our other preferences, tastes and feelings are all created by societal pressures? That's a convenient explanation, too bad it's unrealistic.

Detroit4lyfe.com uses the word 'slap'. Deadspin says "he does not seem to appreciate Nauert hitting him". Did either of these sources actually watch the video?? That's neither a 'slap' nor a 'hit'. In hindsight, I'm sure the ump would agree he should not have touched Hunter, but sensationalizing it more by describing…

Who said anything about hate? It's about things that we viscerally like or dislike. That's a far cry from hate.

You can explain it thusly:

"Can someone explain to me the association between black players and the term 'gifted'? I mean, who would 'gift' a black player when you can easily sell them??"

Wow, that's some sanctimonious shit you're spewing there. Did your shoulder get sore from patting yourself on the back after typing out that incredibly judgmental screed? it did seem gritty though.

so is this like saying the N-word? In that the blacks guys on the team are allowed to listen to rap with N bombs left and right, but if Scola starts shaking his head and mouthing the words, all the black guys stop and say "whoa now, this is just for us - what are u, racist?"

I'm looking for about 180 grit, nothing too rough..

Perhaps I'm the only one to be asking it then, because I am very interested in how a 'gritty' kid is grown. My kids are luckily pretty smart, but I'd trade some of their IQ points for some of the honey badger type grit that I think we all know is crucial to someone being a success at anything. Doubtful that grit is…

If I didn't have enough interest to finish the survey I'm guessing by default I have no grit?

"Petty crimes are now punishable by flogging"

with all of the other replay review the officials do, you'd think they could review something like this. It would take all of 45 seconds to walk to the scorer's table, look at this replay, and reach a conclusion of, "yep, Griffin was being a dick and leglocking Ibaka, he deserved what he got".

Throwing toilets because of a soccer match? Geezus, I'm glad that's not the American Standard!

Doesn't look like this will be a Summer of 69 for this Canuck, eh?

If pitbull wants a glove, pitbull gets a glove. Those girls are just lucky their hand didn't go with the glove.

Don't worry, I think it's more likely they downtain them.

Oh Florida, you never disappoint, do you?
