If Kenan Thompson was actually Steve Harvey then I would like Steve Harvey

I’m glad we can take this moment to reinforce the truth that Keenan Thompson... is good.

Excellent post. It had never really clicked with me that the people in charge of diagnosing/treating/clearing a player after an injury have a bigger interest in the team’s success than the player’s health. The medical treatment players receive is not about their overall or long-term health. It boils down to their timel…

“I know this isn’t a 1-to-1 comparison, but the “ignore the trolls” advice is exactly how shit like Gamergate happens. Calling out and deplatforming people who are toxic is how you beat them.”

Costume changes among individual performers at music festivals where several acts perform on one stage in succession are not common.

I’m guessing it was probably just quicker to toss on a robe. Instead of stopping the entire show for who knows how long, just to do an entire unscheduled wardrobe change.

Could you be more specific?

Come on, be fair. If he didn’t call the timeout and get the technical, he would’ve given his team even less chance of winning. The only way the Warriors could extend the game was by getting the technical.

I agree that no competent doctor would ever straight up rule out an injury, but it’s possible that a competent medical staff was discussing “injuries” from the standpoint of ones that are likely to be related to existing injuries and just never really discussed the potential of an Achilles tear.

Especially because what the hell are you really going to do during a timeout when your team is on a 12-2 run that’s going help?

then who the fuck were the raptors players telling to stop? they were classy and telling their own fanbase to cut the shit.

All you had to do was not cheer KDs reinjury, Toronto.

Raptors fans clowned themselves. The cheers were not “brief”— the whole arena erupted, and it went on for quite awhile. One particular clown was seen courtside waving “good-bye” to KD while KD sat clutching his Achilles.  The Raptors players were clearly embarrassed, and KD gave a well-deserved “fuck you” to the…

The freaking cartoon did this story right 25 years ago.

“Voting: Meh.”

Counterpoint: No, he doesn’t. He’s a genuinely good person who is imperfect, like everyone is, but is actually willing to learn and grow.

What was most impressive about Steph’s 47 was how hard he had to work for it. Lots of floaters in traffic and no-space 3's. But his steals at the end of the game made me think — the surge in effort that he started giving while there was still 4-5 minutes left is what most teams do (if at all) once there’s under 2…

Herb alert:
I always wanted the Warriors to win but I super hope they win like this. Every championship they have is hindered by some dipshit being like, “Well if only Chris Paul/Kawhi Leonard/Kyrie Irving/Etc. were healthy...” Which is fucking dumb but whatever. I’m sure if the Warriors win this series with nothing…

My honest feeling is that he must be somewhere on the autism spectrum.
