It absolutely benefits Machado. The information that was leaked basically tells all the teams (and their fan base) that they can get Machado. It entices them to at least come to the table and start discussions. (“Hey, I heard the market was only this - would Manny consider this?”) The more parties there are in a…
Steve Smith was the fucking king of the meaningless first down delivered with the extra-oomph hand signal of same. Of course, he now delivers this absolute shit-take.
You are describing a type of position player that numbers in the hundreds each decade. By this metric, you can throw in Brett Gardner, Kevin Millar, Lance Berkman and a host of other players that - rightfully - won’t get anywhere near a majority of votes from the writers for the Hall. I, for one, will not stand for…
I don’t like Kevin Durant because he’s a surly turd. I don’t like Nazis more because, you know, they’re fundamentally and materially worse in ways that are dangerous and harmful to society.
I absolutely hate Kevin Durant... but blaming Durant because Draymond Green absolutely idiotically refused to pass the ball at the end of a tie game and, predictably and not for the first time, just stumbled over himself and turned the ball over... and then used that opportunity to call out Kevin Durant for not…
I figured as much given the heavy southern NJ flavor. For what it’s worth, I believe your rankings within the Southern NJ subset are very fair.
The lack of a Manasquan-Spring Lake-Sea Girt representative in the top 3 (let alone in the Top 12) renders this power rankings an irrelevant abomination.
It seems like the author of the article - and Britt McHenry herself - have the wild notion that you actually need to be filthy rich to be entitled. You don’t. You just have to be an asshole.
I do think our country’s (species’?) capacity for forgiveness is a truly great thing... but you need to show genuine remorse and contrition to earn it. Portraying yourself as somehow victimized by this whole situation suggests a complete lack of maturity, understanding or emotional growth since committing that heinous…
Bill Simmons and the Ringer have completely saturated the market for pro-Boston takes. Move on, find a new slant.
Think you’re burying the lede here by not mentioning the absolutely Hall of Fame quality dab exchange Arcia and the third-base coach engaged in.
Whatever the text of the rule may be, he’s clearly breaking the spirit of the rule in both instances by reaching out trying to slap/grab the fielder as he slides through. That’s in addition to any issues with the path of the slide.
Of course, this discussion never occurs if the Rockies’ catcher is able to hold onto the foul tip on the third pitch of the at bat there.
Of course the problem with this statement is that the premise is wrong in that“will of the people” (taken to mean the majority of votes) in the last election was for a Democratic house of representatives, Senate and President.
Look, they should pay the players, but the only person who would call a 25x14 foot TV “dumb shit” is a hater who does not have a 350 square foot television.
