This is how you play it cool when your girl asks you about butt stuff.

“Having already shut down essentially every player of value this season”

.

You can, but then the team will bring in a veteran catcher who will proffer sage folksy advice in an attempt to change your worldview. Coincidentally, the team you are playing for will happen to have an aging but still very attractive jersey chaser who will see your potential and start a relationship with you in an…

Could you do the same thing with the Pirates phone call? I want to know if you can be an asshole on the phone to every team and never get your career started. That’s the kind of realism I want in my baseball game.

Am I crazy or does he look like brad from home improvement?

Yes. Thank you. I’m aware of how tournaments actually work. But if Wisconsin was a 5 seed, they would not have met Villanova until the Sweet 16, as opposed to the second round. A team that has earned a number 1 seed should not have to face a team as good as Wisconsin in the first weekend with nothing more than a…

And if you could make an argument for one deserving it, it was probably Wisconsin - who naturally got an 8 seed...

Thank you for highlighting the real lesson here: WORK THE BODY. Leaves no marks, and you’re less likely to hurt your hand if you hit ribs or kidneys instead of jaws. This is basic stuff, people.

Sports?

Did you actually watch the game, or just the highlights? Westbrook was the only reason they were even that close at the end of the game. Donovan left Christon and Sabonis on the floor for 7/12 minutes of the 4th quarter (and Roberson for 9 minutes), and it crippled the offense. If Westbrook hadn’t taken over, the…

Which, of course, means that Westbrook is singlehandedly robbing OKC of the chance of grabbing a top-3 pick in a loaded draft, which could go far to mitigate the loss of Kevin Durant a year ago. Has any player done more to cripple the next decade of his team’s development this year than RW? I think not. MVP? …

This is a bad take. Simmons has the same fracture that made Kevin Durant miss most of a season a couple years back, and Embiid would be the first player in history to have his career ended by a bone contusion and small meniscus tear. Worrisome, yeah, but unless the Sixers are outright lying about the severity of…

$38,000 cash to a HS basketball player? No.

Billy King singlehandedly saved the Knicks from having thousands of Knicks fan jumping on board to Brooklyn

that Cousins was leaving in free agency as soon as he could

I agree the execution was lacking. But the Sixers didn’t draft MKG. Maybe you meant MCW? If so, Hinkie flipped him for the the Lakers pick. MCW is playing his way out of the league, and if he’s anything more than an 8th or 9th man on a good team, count me as surprised.

And yet Porzingis plays for the Knicks...

“Jusuf Nurkic” is the name Nikola Jokic uses at hotels when he wants privacy.
