Peak Shaq was so incomparable to any other player in the post-merger era. What he did during those Lakers years was terrifying. I don’t remember Shaq being outplayed by Duncan, even though the Spurs bested them in ‘03 (could be wrong, it was a long time ago now).

So it’s labeled a hissy fit on this site when this guy does it, but not when Serena Williams did it at the US Open?

What would Stanton be like on roids like in Bonds heyday? There would be multiple 500 ft homers each season by him, right? His “off” years would be those in which he only slugged 44-49 dingers (Stanton on roids would never hit less than 44).

“Want a real reason to feel bad about the Simpson trial?”

Since when does LeBron admit he made a mistake as Cavs GM?

Draymond Green is more insufferable than Matthew Delladova. I know if Delladova did this we’d never hear the end of it on this site.

God, Ventura is the Delladova of baseball. He’s been recklessly throwing bean balls at hitters for a while now. Thrown at Manny twice tonight? Yeah that was only a matter of time before that little shit was going to meet fists.

White supremacy? The meme was dumb, moronic, and if anything insensitive. That’s what rape survivors want to see, a meme that tries to get lulz from the crime that is rape. Rich.

Any other strong racially charged takes you’d like to make Mr. Trump?

Does anyone really see Kevin Durant playing in Rio? He dropped out of the World Championship team 2 summers ago and he’s going to be a free agent this summer, so you figure he’ll be more interested/invested in figuring that out and protecting his health than playing on another Olympic team.

Counterpoint: Delly is white and has a “punchable face” so he will always be in the wrong, much more than Draymond or any other dirty player.

That’s a bit of a fallacy. That’s like saying there’s less black people in the country but they make up a sizable percentage of the prison population so they’re more likely to commit crimes than white people.

Late in career? He was 32 and still in range for prime career years in ‘96, and played until he was 38.

What’s worse, he was apparently breaking into the apartment of his ex-girlfriend, the mother of his child, after having gotten into an argument with her.

People get hung up on the unabashed steroid use that fueled his late career surge, but there is no debating this much; no ballplayer was a bigger asshole than Barry. His dislike from teammates, coaches, trainers, media, club personal and virtually anyone who had the misfortune of interacting with him over his 20 year…

Tim Raines was always noted for his hustle. Shane Victorino was credited as being “gritty” many times throughout his career.

Yeah, some scumbag reporter. You tell ‘em Trump!

Being tough and playing through injuries does not make one immune to flopping.

Serious question: Given LeBron’s flair for, shall we say, reacting to physical (or near physical) contact in games, how long would he stay down for from a Draymond right kick up the nether region? It’s gotta be over 2 minutes, no?

Deadspin would never celebrate that. Only certain athletes being punched are worthy of deadspin praise.
