Stop procrastinating and quit being a flake - now read these 1,500 words while you’re supposed to be getting shit done at work.

You can, by all means. In what way do you feel you’re being told that you can’t?

First off, the quote above excludes the preceding sentence, which leads the paragraph by first touching on improving understanding of the game as well as providing additional team access:

/\ this is nearly perfect comment.

The worst is that because they’re a NY team they have roughly 5 or 6 prime time games. I do not want this. I want Sunday at 1, when I can watch them in shame and have a few beers. Not a prime time showcase where the whole world gets to watch them lose to Philly as Eli chucks his 4th int.

Actually, you do have to read it if the character is of importance to you. This situation is an impossibly important and apt reflection of issues facing society today. It is ok to be racist.

This place, Gawker (as a whole), not just Deadspin, has truly just become an echo chamber. Dissenting opinions are driven down as quickly as they can spring up. Everything is responded to with a “Nah” as if that is some legitimate response. It’s little help that most of the talented writers have disappeared, but the…

You know, Wagner, I find you generally to be as unimpressive as any professional writer I’ve ever read in any forum at any time (don’t ban me, Burneko!) but even by your low standards, this is pitiful. Harvilla wrote a post not about Taylor Swift but about Taylor Swift’s relationship to music and music criticism writ…
