One of the problems ESPN’s Darren Rovell points out

Imagine a player with the head of a very smart kind of elephant and the body of, well, also an elephant but FAST! Now imagine a man who is half goat and he has hooks for hands. That’s crazy! Why not? Why can’t I have hooks for hands and live in the sewer? I’m just saying there’s no real reason why not. Cam Newton. Tom…

Remember how people were saying there was really no difference between him and Hillary and millions of women believed it?

Pro tip from a woman: If you want to “respect your wife,” then don’t cheat on her, or flirt with other women, or be a prop in an administration that is an international embarrassment. None of that precludes you from have a normal business relationship with other women, which often includes eating. You know, the thing…

I admit, I’ve never quite understood how the degradation of other human beings was supposed to bring about an increased sense of unity. Yeah, there’s the ‘we survived it’ element, sure, but maybe it’s about time to put this practice away as a remnant of a time long past, which is really nothing more than an excuse to…

So you expect him to be top 5 in scoring, tops in assists and be an elite rebounder at the 3 without expecting him to take some dip on defense. All this while averaging 37 minutes a game and being on pace to play 82. That’s unrealistic.

One really sick part about this whole thing is that this is how A LOT of white people talk when no one else is around. The Trump era has made people think this is OK to not only say while at home, but on national television. People need to be publicly shamed for saying shit like this.

This is completely unfair. Deron, Jefferson, Korver, and Frye are an incredible unit together and I have the NBA 2K9 disc to prove it.

Might be just you.

Do you need me to let you out in 15 minutes?

Closets usually don’t lock on the inside. So you would actually have to have someone lock you in the closet and then have said person come back to let you out when you’re finished crying. What if they have an emergency or want to have their own cry when you’re in there? Then you have to either wait for them to come…

Yes, you’re right. It definitely is not a sports entertainment promotion featuring musclebound men wearing sparkly spandex costumes slamming each other around for spectacle. It’s some whole other, more serious thing.

Can you imagine the uproar if white people were enslaved for hundreds of years, and after having been freed were still denied basic rights for another century, and then were denied the tools that would allow them to better their overall circumstance like decent education and access to housing and banking, and then…

Thank you. Even if you want to make the argument that NFL players are adults and therefore have decision-making power in their own lives (again, this is faulty logic), that isn’t true for high school or even college kids. And given what we know now about brain development, those are critical years. So you have HS…

I know. Do you ever listen to him speak and think, “Well I must be dead and/or in the Twilight Zone because there is no way in hell this can be real.”

I think even advanced metrics will admit that shots that go in at a high rate are good shots.

“Bush doesn’t care about black people.” -Kanye West, 2005.

Said this elsewhere, but it bears repeating... Clinton, Obama, et al were right about one thing: this election was about what kind of country we are. And the electorate has decided: we are an asshole. Of the assholes, by the assholes, for the assholes. And now we have an Asshole-in-Chief. Van Jones is right, we are a…

That’s cool, Colin. So, what do you plan to do about it? Kneel during the national anthem? Thanks, that’ll save lives.

I can’t stop picturing Hillary Clinton kissing her fingers and pressing them to her wallet sized photo of Beyoncé for good luck before each speech. “We got this, Bey...who run the world?”
