Were this before 1986, they would’ve been called the Chicago Black Hakws instead of the Chicago Blackhakws.

I feel this is the sort of thing that would happen if the Cubs played hockey.

Wouldn’t be the first Bishop to ever have an inappropriate boner.

National pastime in Croatia actually. Whoever finds the hidden Swastika gets a free strukli at the concession stand.

This story is as dumb as any “this chicken nugget looks like Jesus so I’m going to try and sell it for thousands” anecdote.

This is why I watch hockey. Do you have any idea how hard it is to skate a swastika into the ice properly? (Mel Brooks at least tried to show it once)

As Friday afternoon dumps go, this is pretty heavy.

Like I said to someone else, I don’t HATE the combat, and I wouldn’t want to watch just a movie, but I didn’t buy Mass Effect for the gunplay or Dragon Age for the fireballs, I bought them because I’m invested in their *WORLDS.*

I almost exclusively play games for the narrative, character development, and world building so “360 no-scoping bitches” never really helps flesh those concepts out. It’s often the peanut butter that I have to wade through to get to the good stuff.

Holy shit. Quite the divergent comment for Deadspin. Eloquent, objective, intelligent. Very nice.

The overlooking of racism from his book is precisely the kind of thing a biographer should not be doing - anyone writing about Cobb should have to grapple with it. The relativism often prevalent in this discussion (“other people were racist too;” “it was the times”) is insidious because it allows people to effectively…

The trick is to not get hung up on the idea of following characters from cradle to grave. Follow the writers instead. Most worth their salt will do a run on a particular character that will usually last between 6 and 60 issues, and it will be as self-contained as they can manage (moreso if they have the name…

I know a few people like that. Never cared for comics when we were growing up but all of a sudden they see the movies, read one comic and buy a Cap shield shirt and say they have always been a fan. But on the other side of that I have noticed people like my wife who actually start to jump into comics (Chew, Kamala…

Gaiman’s Sandman ran for 75 issues, was a complete arc, and featured some of the best illustrators of the time. You’ll get an amazing story and find artists who you can seek out in other works.

Naaah. I’m a Hawks fan until the first shovel of dirt hits my face, but “Just because Florida” isn’t a good reason to deny Tampa their shot. They have a Cup already and that team was a sight, with LeCavalier, St. Louis, and some of the best goaltending in the history of the Finals from the Bulin Wall. If the Ning beat…

Vasilevkiy only saw 19 shots... but 5 ended up behind him. I’ve never seen a game with that many pucks hitting the post for one team and not bouncing in. So frustrating.

Why? Because it’s warm in Florida? Stupid reason.

This is a golf-poop story, so I figured Drew would like it:

An old high school girlfriend of mine lived in a subdivision that had its own golf course. She and I made out near one of the secluded greens one summer night, and it was one of those magical scenes from adolescence where the possibilities of adulthood and physical relations with a real live girl are perfectly matched…
