When I was a kid in elementary school, I would get my lunch, go to pay for it, and then find out that I didn't have the money. They then would take that lunch and give me a pb and j sandwich. It was embarrassing to not be able to pay for the lunch, and the pb and j I was eating signaled to the other kids that I…

Okay MLB, I believe you! A-Rod doped! Now, hand him his 50 game suspension and we will be on our way. Wait, no? 162 games? Oh right, I forgot that the MLB is a bunch of righteous assholes seeking vengeance.

Looks like the haters are coming out of their caves a little early this year.

He was also perhaps the best part of The Wolf of Wall Street. And there were a lot of great performances in that movie.

I can't remember the last time I've seen an actor blow up like McConaughey has. It's like what happened with Bullock, but times ten. It's astounding. He's in everything that's awesome, and he's the best parts of those movies.

That Niner line is crazy. I don't bet, but I might find a way to put some money on Carolina. The Niners we a 9th string's cold fingers away from losing to a Green Bay team with a third of their starters out, and a QB recovering from injury... and listening to them afterwards makes it seem that they won by 14. But,…

Ride proudly on your golden horse of virtue and excellence, ye perfect specimen. Judge us all against your divine example. For when we are at our worst, you, ManuteTroll, will always be there, on the internet, telling us how awful we all are.

Because (add snarky noun here) is a stupid use of English and I wish Gawker would stop using it... Please...

Whenever you feel like criticizing someone, just remember that all the people in the world haven't had the advantages you've had.

What are you talking about? RBIs being undervalued? How can a stat that is dependent on those around you be valued by anyone serious at all? Give me an article with any sort of merit that says RBI's are worth anything as a statistical measure of quality. At first you intrigued me, but now you're beginning to make…

Not making outs is a lot more than taking walks though. Look at Oakland right now. Beane found that the next statistically under-valued trait was fly ball hitting. You'd think that his collection of fly-ball hitting players wouldn't be so effective given his ball-park. But that turned out to be wrong, because…

What are you talking about? Not making outs and getting on base is a key part of scoring runs. Is this some stupid anti-moneyball rant?

Look... You always knew that with your age and vet. minimum salary that you and punters like you would have it rough in the latter parts of your career... A lot of your fellow punters and kickers are in the exact same position as you. It isn't fair, but unless you are absolutely exceptional, smart money…

If there is one athlete in baseball that got close to equaling what Jordan did with his basketball brand, it was Ken Griffey Jr. while he was with the Mariners...

There is a book out there called "Who Owns the Future"... I would recommend giving it a read. For those who say "these are prohibitively expensive," guess what, the cost of labor in the United States is REALLY expensive, and any company that can minimize that cost through robotics is going to do so. Welcome to the…

Check out the win/loss record between the home and away teams. It's still a bit of a small sample size, but it's friggin insane. The home team wins like, two thirds of the time. And I can see why too. After practice on wednesday, all the players have to pack up and get on a plane real quick, while the muscles are…

I'm not saying that I don't believe her here, i honestly have no idea what happened back there. But what she didn't say (in deadspins article at least) is "I never slept with recruits."

It helped in Libya, and Libya is the closest representation of the conflict we're about to face. Also, we probably won't be targeting infrastructure.

Yeah? Thanks. I think the world of Monte... but I doubt he's going to last long on your Cowboys, unfortunately. I think your defensive talent and head coach are among the worst in the league... Jerry really needs to hire a GM.

What? That ~20k number was total civilian/military deaths in both Iraq until 2011, and Afghanistan. Both conflicts of which Pres. Obama did not start, and both conflicts that he has tried hard to end. A great majority of those deaths were not perpetrated by Americans, but by terrorists doing what they do best,…
