Video games aren’t that hard, man.

“That’s better than the Suns starting five.” Well, maybe, but the Suns are fucking horrible.

Yeah but the world’s gotten some decent bands as a result.

You mean Landry from Friday Night Lights.

Rick Reilly’s recent work is indefensible but a lot of his old stuff is really good and his schtick still works with the retired set. Also, he and I were both guests at a book festival a couple years back and it was just a free weekend of golf in Carmel for him and a big opportunity for me and he was just SO NICE for…

If your populist movement’s chief advocate is a millionaire pop star, it’s already dead.

James Harden grew up in Los Angeles and lives in Houston, both locales with gorgeous women and fabulous Mexican food. He dated a Kardashian and lives off fucking Chipotle burrito bowls. Tells you everything you need to know.

J.J. Redick is pretty good. Fuck. (spits, brushes teeth, takes shower)

A fist striking a Duke player’s face forever

Is there any way I can block my copper-IUD-using fiancee from ever accessing or being aware of this article? Asking for both our sakes.

I may be in the minority but once I fiddled with my graphics settings a bit my performance has been almost totally smooth. Some odd hiccups here and there but no crashes or corrupted saves or badly bugged levels.

Probably worth mentioning that the Lakers’ first-round pick is only top-3 protected, so aside from the development of young players the losing is fairly productive.

I like Bill Simmons. I enjoy his podcasts and mostly enjoyed his columns. “The Book of Basketball” was way more entertaining than it had any right to be. Grantland published some good stuff and the bad stuff was easily ignored. Fuck your crowdsourced opinions.

Yes, because in the intervening century somebody invented radar.

Beckham’s emotional meltdown in the Panthers game hurt their chances to win it, and he was suspended for the game after that (obviously hurting the team’s chances). The Giants lost both games and missed the playoffs by a narrow margin in the awful NFC East. Between the two, you can see how a basic troll might use that…

There were actually a number of times during last year’s playoffs where Draymond Green threw blocks like this to keep the intentional fouler from reaching Bogut or Iguodala. The difference being Green didn’t flop and no fouls were called either way.

Can’t just change calls well after the fact in non-replay situations. It’s unregulated and messy. If you’ve ever been to an NBA game, the video board showing a replay that disproves a call happens several times per game and you just jeer the ref and move on.

Yeesh, Fugly is right.

Boogie would complain about a Steve Kerr practice.

I was in the middle of writing a snarky response about how not everyone does totally insane things as a teenager and then I thought really hard about it and yeah I did.
