I would pay to watch this man and Hinkie discuss abstractions. It would be the most talking you could do to say nothing. Read more

I especially like the part where he fakes the pass to the corner and is wearing a Clippers jersey when he spins back to the lane. Read more

Man, those two plays in double OT, starting at about 1:34 of the highlight clip, were incredible. Amazing that he could muster the energy to pull those plays off after everything that he did that game. Read more

A Giri article on a semi obscure tennis weirdo, another on peppers and a Drew fun bag? This almost makes up for me hitting a parked car for no apparent reason other than turning 40 seems to cause a diminished ability to judge distance. Seriously, great stuff as always. Read more

Oh come on now, it can’t be any better than the Winston-Salem 250, which takes place in the parking lot of Wake Forest’s football stadium. Read more
