“So never swing at a ball. And hit all the strikes for home runs. Got it? Okay, now you try.” - Barry Bonds, hitting coach

Ichiro and Bonds should switch jobs every two weeks all season. The first ever coach/player platoon. Who would object?

LeBron James: Okay, I’ll take one more question before Mozzy, Double-T, and I head off to the boys’ clubhouse.

Last five games: 21 ppg, 9.6 rpg, 9.2 apg, 2.8 stls, 2.0 blks

Only an asshole would complain about shortcuts and say U instead of YOU.

Straight Up.

“A 500-foot home run counts the same as a 300-footer, though admittedly the gasps are louder.” ... except when there are more runners on base.

That dog looks like he has polysomy (sort of like down’s syndrome for dogs).
You guys are mean motherfuckers if this is the case.

oooh, soory. Miter saw is the answer we were looking for. Mitre saw.

It looks like nobody is paying too much attention to that memo ESPN sent to the talent a few months ago, the one urging them all to refrain from making political comments.

@NihilistLebron: In the darkness between the stars, there is a six-mile-wide asteroid on a collision course with Earth and we can’t stop it. I hope I get more rebounds 2nite.

“The quality of play in the league is great; the talent level has never been higher; the competitiveness is great except for the fact that the playoffs are going to be a complete formality; but I still find following the league insufferable.”

This is a terrible take. Nobody that has any sort of power, influence, or stature in the league or the media says that Michael Jordan would only be a rotation player or that the 76ers would go 82-0 on the 80s, and people like Oscar Robertson are objectively wrong and dumb here. This isn’t anybody being reflexively…

Imagine putting this man in charge of an NBA team in 2016

Or maybe it is that live shows are tough to pull off and sometimes things go awry.

Great career in England for Timmy. He got so much shit when Man United signed him 12+ years ago, all the English papers poking fun at his Tourette’s. In his first game he was man of the match and stopped a few Arsenal pk’s in the Community Shield opener, and has mostly gone up since then. One of the few American…

I am no expert on college hoops and I think I am the only guy in America that neither loathes nor loves Duke, but that clip above is more than “borderline dirty.” He stuck out his leg and tripped the dude. Ditto the play a few weeks ago when he tripped the guy from Louisville. He’s a dirtbag. Why do we have to wait…
