It sounds like your school(s) built a graduation stadium like a goddamn Olympics arena that sits fallow until graduation season hits. Do all 25 high schools also share a football stadium?

Trump has a bit of history with Qatar.

yikes!

I could never approve of someone who takes a stand against chocolate covered pretzels.

What the eff was the goaltender doing there?

As a man, the safest thing to do is just always stand. Even on an empty train, I always stand as meekly and out of the way as possible, feet together against a wall and out of all walkways. Folks are pretty aggressively about photographing anyone sitting wrong where I live and they will do so even when there are…

The results of the last three elections are not a “feeling,” nor are they snark, and they are certainly not a product of an evil webiverse. They are objective results of mobilized voters who, apparently, don’t really care much about a candidate being from a state that is not federally-dependent in order to function. …

True, the last three elections have shown that folks from New York or Illinois cannot possibly win a presidential election.

A man ruined by what, at this point, can only be called recreational back surgeries.

You’re assuming that Lonzo Ball’s primary motivation is winning basketball games. His non-reaction to losing in the sweet 16, his refusal to play for any team but the Lakers, and even his bizarre shoe pitch seem to indicate that his interests lie elsewhere. He seems to view Lakers’ games like an infomercial to sell…

To be fair, he shouldn’t have knocked her eye out. I mean....she’s gonna need that thing later. And now its rolling around the bus floor, getting kicked, collecting dirt.

Wow, they never get close to doing what you assume they’ll do. Marchman has no sympathy because the teams seem to have no histories or narratives around them that make them standout in the sports landscape.

Ugh. This trailer just makes me want to read a one paragraph summary of the series so I can go, “humph, got it” and move on with my life. I don’t know if I can take five seasons of the show pretending that the 8 year old girl in the trailer is still 8 when she’ll be 15 when it ends. (although pretending is better…

*See Josh Innes’ time in Philadelphia

Did you honestly believe that a losing record would affect a Phillies fan. That’s our comfort zone. The only thing that affects us is winning. Just ask Cole Hamels who went through a year of hell from the fan base in 2009 to pay for the problematic abnormality that he put us through in 2008.

..And this is why the NHL shouldn’t put teams in the sunbelt.

A source tells Deadspin that the police attempted to submit a reckless endangerment charge to the DA’s office—and the DA’s office rejected it.

I actually respect him for the first time in my life (though I’ve never eaten any of his pizza). After all, it is HIS face on the commercials and so doing random spot-checks to ensure quality (if that word can be used here) makes a lot of sense.

Insurance is not gambling. It is socialized risk. If the type of career insurance that players receive becomes illegal, then health insurance would also be a violation of NCAA rules. Both are socializing or distributing the risk of losing one’s health across a group.
