Whenever I hear Mike Piazza interviewed, especially on something like “Fresh Air” with Terri Gross, he seems like such a nice guy. He’s suffering from the Kris Benson effect. Mild mannered baseball man marries former centerfold who is batshit insane. 

I grew up playing serious hockey around other guys that went on to play D-1 and higher. I don’t know many of them that didn’t work with a skating coach that was primarily a figure skater. For $20 a week (for 20 minutes), my coach improved my skating light years beyond what I could do on my own. Figure skaters know how…

Holy God he’s awful. This article must have taken zero effort to write. Zero imagination, zero insight, just a handful of obnoxious snipes at MLS and it’s fans. He presumably got paid for this too. That actually makes me sad. This man can get paid to write and I have to work a normal, soul crushing job. His…

My reaction was “what does effusive mean”? I know it’s a word. And I got a high score on my SAT verbal section. I should know what this word means. Now I just feel bad. 

Hottake. The Giants might not actually suck. They have sucked at times this year, but now they’re playing pretty good. It’s not that hard to see them winding up 8-8. That’s not great, but it’s not horrible. Especially when you consider they lost two games on last second field goals. They could be looking at an…

And remember when they treated him like he was dumb, and lazy? Even though he was a brilliant constitutional law professor? I remember that too. And it makes me sicker now than it did even then. 

To be fair to Colin Jost, the new Amazon center in Long Island City isn’t a distribution center. It’s place for management and white collar types who will make over $100k. So from that perspective, NYC won the lottery. Whether or not it will displace low income residents is a different issue than the horrible working…

I’m a former military officer and Kelly has disgraced himself in my eyes for his serving in this administration. Not least of all for his conduct in the Congresswoman Wilson debacle. He accused her of something sleazy, she produced tape refuting him, and then he wasn’t man enough to admit he was wrong and apologize.…

Yeah this is some weird “bash capitalism always” shit. The thing is, I want people to have health care and free schooling, but I still like capitalism. Countries like Sweden, Denmark, etc have robust social safety nets, but they are still capitalist. I feel like the writers on this site are just leaching on to an idea…

Oh yes, I’ve done that. Very nice indeed. 

Thanks. There may have been some sarcasm in your message but I can’t detect it as I am distracted by the cozy warmth of this freshly dried shirt. 

I’m a male and I love doing laundry. I love the feeling of putting on warm clothes right out of the dryer. I even put this on my bumble profile. So yeah, kind of a catch. 

Well they’ve beaten LSU the last two times they played them in a bowl game. So what tradition are you referring to exactly? When they lost to Alabama in the National Championship 6 years ago? That was several Manti Teo girlfriends lifetimes ago.

So Howard’s Butt is Butt?

Nothing excuses Tyson’s behavior. But the reason she was so hated has a lot to do with the perception that she and her mother in law appeared to be conniving and running a con on Tyson. Don King ingratiated himself to Tyson partly because he managed to stop Givens and her Mother from stealing more of Tyson’s money.

I feel like if it’s going to center around Dickie, it needs to be set in the 70's, not the 60's. The 70's were just a grittier time and a major part of Dickie’s story is his substance abuse problem. It’s that legacy that ultimately doomed Christopher. Christopher acknowledged that his dad was a common junkie and a…

You don’t even need to “invest” it wisely. All you need to do is park it somewhere safe and not spend lavishly. If he saves 1/3 of that money, roughly $8 million, and just hangs onto it, the interest is more than enough for most people to live on. 

Let’s look at the people they have in their orbit. Jay Carney works for Amazon. David Plouffe works for Uber. David Axelrod is disgracing himself by partnering with Karl Rove in those ridiculous “Master class” frauds. We won’t even bother tallying the slew of former Obama people who went to work for Goldman. But if…

So just one thing. Yes, the Warriors were great before Durant joined them. However, would they still be champions if Durant had joined another team that was already nearly as good as the Warriors? They may suddenly find themselves second best. Durant’s addition to the team catapulted them to the next level. If he had…

Why is Ivanka allowed to go on an all expense taxpayer paid trip to Africa? Can someone explain how this is legal? I thought she was a volunteer staffer or something. What is the possible justification for sending her? Oh who the fuck am I kidding. None of the answers to those questions matter. This is a crime family.
