Sorry to see you go, Hannah. I’ve really enjoyed your videos and writing. Good luck!

Yes it is quite clear that nobody else would have paid him 2 or even 3 times that amount to play for them. After all, he did wait a full 16 hours into free agency before he signed this contact. 

Boogie is of course free to sign where he pleases, but if I’m a member of the NBA players association, I’m fucking pissed. Signing below market value depresses the market fo other players. 

My wife insisted on watching GBBS and I really disliked it but I found Martha delightful. 

He is the only qualified Major League pitcher with an ERA under 2.00 and has been worth 5.1 wins above replacement by Baseball Reference’s figuring in just 17 starts. He is now 5–4 on the year.

Wasn’t LBJ’s year to year contracts with Cleveland in part because he knew the salary cap was going to go way up and he didn’t want to lock himself into a max deal at the old cap?

Your The Decision (TM) take wasn’t that off.  The whole thing was a self aggrandizing shit show and should never have happened like that.  I say this as a Lebron fan.  He was totally right to go to Miami and leave Cleveland, but the way he did it was awful. 

Is the Danish keeper related to Peter Schmiechel (the Great Dane)?

Iranian Twitter trolls, they’re just like us!

I worked at Starbucks for five years. I always felt like it was great when people tipped, but I didn’t feel like anyone who didn’t was a jerk...unless they acted like a jerk and didn’t tip and then I felt like they were a double jerk. 

I make popcorn in a wok.  Also, I like my popcorn slightly burnt.

I’m not taking anything away from him because of his team. Those Devils teams weren’t great hockey teams; they played the unwatchable neutral zone trap better than anybody else though and that’s why they won. I’m also not saying Brodeur was a bad goalie. He was, as you say, one of the top 5 or 6 goalies every year he…

His career save percentage and GAA (especially during the scoring drought of the 90s) is middling compared to his peers. When you take into account that because of the Devils’ neutral zone trap (and to be fair, his own exceptional stick handling), he faced significantly fewer shots than any goalie of his generation.…

Hot take: Martin Brodeur is overrated AF. Other than being an exeptionally good stickhandler, his best quality was his longevity without injury. Otherwise, he’s an above average goaltender who benefited from playing behind a spectacularly boring style of play that allowed him to face fewer shots than almost any other…

So you’re saying they were asking for it?

Hard to argue that Kobe wasn’t playing against the Lakers for his last couple of seasons

Pruitt’s corruption, graft, and general wasteofspaceitude is a feature, not a bug. Trump wants this guy playing with his nuts and not doing things like regulating air and water.
