I mean, being antisemitic effectively cost Mel Gibson his whole career (not mad about it), and he was one of the biggest straight white male stars in the world. In contrast, the NBA is asking Kyrie to take some sensitivity classes and donate to some anti-hate organizations. That really doesn’t seem so harsh to me? Read more

I’ve been following his career since he was 17, and he’s in many ways the best do ever do it, which makes this weird, bigoted, late-career heel-turn all the more disappointing and heartbreaking. Read more

This is an excellent list. I’ve got a great addition for it. First time I saw it done I thought it was madness, but it works like a charm. Read more

Oh man, I was the only kid I knew who went with the TG16 instead of Sega or Nintendo. I even bought the CD-ROM system. Ys Books I and II were my favorite RPGs ever. Splatterhouse, Bonk... Damn, I think I kinda need this. Read more

Weirdly, yes, I am saying that. Because no matter how good those guys were in the regular season, they would always choke in the playoffs. They would even get ahead in a series, and then would seem to get scared of winning and forget how to play. It was like the whole team needed a sports psychologist. So, yes. And,… Read more

Whoa, weird, same. Born/raised in the east bay, so that was unavoidable. But when the Warriors added Durant I actually moved the Clippers to #1 and Dubs to #2. I love my underdogs. Might have to switch back this year by the look of things though.  Read more

When I moved to LA six years ago I decided I wanted a local team to root for, so I picked the clippers. They were kind of these scrappy underdogs who were good but also managed to screw it up. The 19/20 Clippers are about to be fun as hell, and I am going to be insufferable for this very long season. Read more

I’m on board with this, generally, but I say they should announce the pact before February and pledge that whichever of them is behind in the polls after February then the front-runner will choose the other as their VP. That should help to appease both the Bernie and Warren die-hards. I’d be ELATED to vote for that… Read more

So, I don’t know what would qualify a person as an expert, but I did go to grad school for acting and spent 4+ years in voice and speech classes. So my ear may not be “expert,” but it is trained, and to my ear, yes, Mikey sounds a hell of a lot like Kyrie. And yes, the low bitrate of a phonecall will strip most of the… Read more

I’m really hoping that the “vaporizer” mentioned in this story is for weed, and not just candy-flavored nicotine, but who knows. Read more

That looks like an MCL to me. Fucking sucks.  Read more

In his LOWER back, no less. Not the heart, or head, or even the lung. The lower back. Six people and none of them know where a vital organ is? Read more
