Supremely well written. Further, huge kudos for the forthrightness. Too many people these days (including in this family of blogs) would take the “I didn’t technically say he didn’t have a degree” route.

Legit request: When you guys block quote like that, could you put in some brackets to explain proper nouns that haven’t already been introduced? E.g., I’m reading the quoted material and I have no idea what “Acushnet” is. Also, you do this all the time.

I can’t seem to muster any hate for the whole Tebow story. He’s clearly good enough to play High-A ball, so it’s not a farce (if he was the bigs, that’s farce). It’s not like his being there is keeping some High-A ballplayer from being on the roster and putting food on his table (that hypothetical player is actually…

Sure, Mayweather may be a bit flamboyant, a woman abuser, and is probably on a second-grade reading level (no offense to second-graders out there), but thankfully, what recent press events have shown is that McGregor is a full-fledged racist.

Took the words right out of my mouth

Where in the world ARE Carmen San Diego...

I think you could put LeBron on the Rockets, Celtics, Spurs, or Thunder and I would probably take those teams over the Warriors

Is there any way to say “fucking awesome blog post” without sounding sarcastic or shitty? Well anyway, I liked it and it was good

There’s a reason these were referred to as “promises” though, instead of the more concrete “contractual obligations.” They were almost certainly extrinsic to the contract itself. Frankly I don’t see how the Marlins could have won a judgment unless that were the case.

Come on Barry, if Hockey is for Everyone, that TECHNICALLY includes Klan members

Estadio de Luz in Lisbon. Seriously, just look at pictures of that stadium

Williams was in the intersection on red, Barson advanced on green, and the Barson’s lawyer REALLY wishes those were the only two traffic laws that matter...

Not Galatasaray; common misconception

No.

Even the weak-ass rationale of “people that don’t know baseball could be offended” is actually bullshit. Would said confused person not notice the first k? The second k? Can’t you notice that it is not, in fact, a kkk sign, but actually THREE signs with K on them? Ugh

“Gomez looked like he was going to get away with a free hit”

I never got why Boston would want PG. There’s no reason to believe he’s not going to LA after next season. So you’re getting him for one year, and that’s a year where your team still isn’t good enough to pick up a win against the Warriors. Maybe you can take it to the Cavs. But they’re not hanging Eastern Conference…

Say what you will about his boxing technique, but that oversized adult diaper looks comfy as hell

You mean to tell me he tearfully thanked his family and teammates? Worth the wait indeed!
