Lighten up, Francis.
Lighten up, Francis.
I’m 100 percent in support of the entire Giz family resigning and creating their own independent publication free from Great Hill’s bullshit, and would do everything I could to help out. And a paywall would totally be worth it if it keeps everyone safe from vulture capitalists.
Deadspin was the site that convinced me to get rid of my adblocker years ago. I enjoyed their content regularly and it was valuable, so even with the current iterations of the annoying ads, I’ve lived with them to make sure they get paid.
We may not all be as eloquent as Will at the end there, but I think it’s safe to say we all feel the same way.
Hey that piece of shit nestled between that pig’s enormous testicles looks just like Jim Spanfeller! Uncanny!
A question for the Funbag: why should I keep reading anything on this website after Jim Spanfeller and Paul Maidment went to the lengths of firing Barry, like cowards, for the dumbest of reasons?
I want to support the writers here—this is both the best website that exists, and has ever existed, and the best sports…
This is probably the hardest thing to accept about a politician as dumb and impulsive as Trump. (I continue to type after muting my speakers because I can’t find the ad to stop it.) He’s just dumb and there’s nothing more too it. His motives are fleeting and banal. He’s no arch mastermind, he’s just a dumb,…
He also clearly referenced a glass jaw, and boxing has no place here (or anywhere in our CTE aware lives).
I remember in like 2006 when there were already stupid “stick to sports” takes in the comment threads (that weren’t an ouroboros of satire and actual business practices around here), someone was bitching about a particular blog and “why it doesn’t belong on a sports site.” One of the wise old leaders of the…
Stick to commenting!
I agree generally, but his deflection game is strong. Also, his ability to both subtly and in-your-face give Putin everything he;s ever dreamed of in a U.S. President takes some planning, thought and analyses — by someone.
David, I wish to register a complaint. You’ve filed this story to Politics, but this is erroneous, as this is clearly a Sports Story.
Esther, what are you sitting here slandering Hershey’s chocolate as the worst Halloween candy when Charleston Chew, Good & Plenty, Bit-o-Honey and Necco Wafers are floating around? Not to say anything of raisins!
If Hersheys is the worst you can conjure, you grew up in some high end trick or treating territory.
The writers absolutely hate it. I think Roth, Patrick, and Burneko have all tweeted about it.
Jalopnik EIC Patrick George was asking for feedback:
I didn’t crunch the numbers, but wasn’t the chance of the kicker missing a 41-yard field goal comparable to the chance of fumbling the football in one last offensive play?
3-9 is more likely.
While you’re correct that we are too gullible and this problem isn’t unique to Facebook, we don’t solve this problem by letting Facebook off the hook or just telling people to be less gullible.
