While some of his pieces aren't that great, Tom Bissel has spent a lot of time since contributing to Grantland on the topic of writing for games as well. It's actually kind of depressing how he went from thinking that on their own, pretty much every video game script is bad because of bad writing to the realization…

The organization is not helping because baseball driving someone to alcohol is a common affliction amongst the Astros organization and fanbase.

"Great form out there."

They targeting Matt Schaub next?!

I'm sure you've heard some stuff from the Ted Wells report on the Dolphins. Are assistant coaches all assholes? They seem to be the kind of guys who think being an asshole is the way to become successful like Lombardi or Belichick. Also, who are the biggest assholes in the league?

I've said before and I'll say it again: Democracy just doesn't work

And here I was thinking the "Let Bonnet Shoot" campaign was about the 3 point contest.

JASON KEIDEL MOLESTED FIVE CHILDREN IN NEWARK. Let's make this happen.

Pretty sure you mean Anthony Bennett. Michael Bennett plays on the Seahawks so with the smothering nfl coverage that is forgivable. I agree though. We can disagree on reasons but Royce White is probably not close to the top.

That tweet before I even read this comment had me imagining Saban as emperor Palpatine muttering into that headset on the sideline.

He might have been misheard. Ever since NBA jam I also start dropping boom shacka lackas when I start draining ill advised shots on the basketball court.

I'm pretty sure this is the inspiration and the thought that runs through JR Smith's head on repeat during huddles.

Agree with you man. People say he set black people back. But what about all the racists saying racist things. They're not setting white people back? It comes back to our culture's ethnocentricity where white people are all treated as individuals but minorities are part of a whole. Sherman sets back black people while…

Fair point. Although that also delegitimizes vocalists and a music composer, which one could argue Kanye is. The overarching point is that Kanye is regarded as talentless by virtue of his chosen genre not being liked in a way that musicians in different fields are not.

I did as well, but that's only because I KNEW that just a stream of racism, "I'm not racist for saying...", and other things along those lines were going to start going coming through.

The Kanye is not a talented musician always comes back to "I don't personally like him therefore the large swaths of society who regard him as a musical genius are incorrect." Most people don't like classical music yet not many would ever diminish their talents the way people do when Kanye is brought up.
