In terms of both baseball and business, it’s a perfectly logical decision for the Rangers. But in terms of compassion, it’s pretty crummy. The quick takeaway here isn’t and won’t be that the front office made a measured decision about the welfare of their own team. It’s that they decided to shut out a club forced…

Solid points (serious). Only strengthened by the structure where you keep reminding us that you want to say something (not serious). Also, the Butler trade looks worse when you take away the lopsidedness of the trade? Why would you take that away?! That’s what makes it great! That’s like saying if you take Isaiah…

As someone else pointed out, this article (while awesome) completely contradicts itself.

You need a white guy to join the fight. The white guy is super important to the fight. For people to really see social injustices, there must be someone from the other side of the race who recognizes the problem, because a lot of times if just one race says there’s a problem, nobody is realistic about it.

Don’t you mean “The Cavs Pulled Off a Massive Dong”

Note: It still says playerS, even though now you’re only naming one. (Also, it’s a bad line; as if there are other power 5 schools where the only player you can name is Dick Butkus? Doesn’t make sense)

It’s homer. I don’t even really think it’s not even close. You’re not facing major league pitching, it’s BP, balls designed to be as easy to hit as possible. We played home run derby once on a high school field and I got one over the wall with a wooden bat. Obviously that was a smaller field, but also I have never…

I consider myself a sensible, liberal person (maybe it’s wishful thinking; who knows?) But I look at the backlash to this show as a good example of me being embarrassed when “my side” goes too far. It’s a TV show, and it’s sure a shit not going to glamorize the Confederacy.

It kind of sounds like both sides were just looking to play war that day. Like that line about the drums signaling the arrival of the anti-fascists? Good lord. I’m as anti-Nazi as the next guy, but it seems like everyone there was looking for a fight and everyone got it.

As a tangent, this article has made me question why there are separate teams for men’s and women’s curling. And now I’m going down a rabbit hole... billiards? bowling? Why do the genders compete separately?

So the game was “delayed” by what, 30 seconds? Dude should probably chill.

Good god is Dom no fun or what? “Uh, he wouldn’t KILL himself” “Tomorrow.” and “It’s just a nice thing that a team is doing for a fan” are among my personal highlights

I honestly can’t imagine going through life caring so much about what other people wear. I’d get tired

Couldn’t we just put actual weight into our consideration of a player’s PER and WS/48 in the playoffs? In most sports postseason-only stats are novelties, trotted out only when they confirm the speaker/writer’s point. But if we admit that basketball is a fundamentally (or at least, significantly) different game in the…

They just held that the Medicaid expansion wasn’t a valid exercise of the spending power because it was coercive to the states. And come on, it was. It was coercive. I liked it and would still like it, but if states lose all medicaid funding for not accepting the expansion, that’s coercive. You can’t argue that it’s…

There are further layers of wrongness not even addressed. If you consider this an “accidental[]” own goal, it should still only be worth two for Spain. If it’s considered deliberate (which in some senses it is of course), then it’s a violation and not worth ANY points. Wow

Yeah those clean/dirty signs require that you remember to flip the sign. This method requires only that you remember to put the dish towel in. It’s a different kind of remembering! Obviously better!

This whole debacle has me thinking of that time someone asked Kyrie about Lebron being a father figure, and Kyrie didn’t like it. It’s probably been three years of that and similar Lebron-related questions, and he’s just tired of it.

NO ONE WEARS NIKE METCONS AT THE CROSSFIT GAMES HAMILTON YOU KNOW THIS!
