Here's the thing, though: Even if Boeheim's assessment is correct, he shouldn't be saying that shit out loud on TV. He owes more to Tyler Ennis than Ennis does to him, and if he were a good dude he would try to help the kid out by being as complimentary as possible when asked questions like this. Doing a solid for a… Read more

OK, so for those of us who have not read the books, how would you like to see Joffrey die? I vote for stung thousands of times by a swarm of killer bees. Read more

I really don't understand the "He's a pro now so it's his responsibility to cut ties with people that might damage his image" argument. Those friends of his only "damage" his image when people decide to unfairly judge Jackson based on his associations. Read more

You either need to calm the fuck down or just stop commenting. Read more

Here's an extended cut, which is just as great. Please note the random dude who just flies in out of nowhere and dunks.

Are you fucking kidding me right now? This was explicitly explained to you in the article above, which you did not take the time to read before scrolling down here and making a dumb comment. Read more

OK, let's try to come up with some loopholes here. If the rule really is just that the football can't be used as a prop, then couldn't a player technically dunk the football through the goal post as long as he first makes clear to the ref that his intent is not for the football to represent a basketball, but to remain… Read more

Thanks for pointing that out! Read more

And the QFMS and SCWWS are essentially useless as long as Qatar's kafala system remains in place. Under kafala law, migrant workers are essentially indentured servants, completely at the mercy of their employers. Many migrant workers have their passports confiscated by their employers when they arrive in Qatar, and… Read more

Just to head off what I know will inevitably come up, I really can't tell if that rim is lowered at all or not. I stared at it for a long time and watched the clip over and over again and couldn't decide. Read more

You're being way too generous by assuming free will. Honestly, just read through the entire ITUC report. A lot of the workers who arrive in Qatar do so expecting to get good jobs and live in nice places, because that's what the recruiters tell them will be there, only to get their passports seized before getting…

Marchman and I were just talking about this, and it feels like something has to give at some point. I mean, we've got eight years of reports like this ahead of us, and a World Cup in Qatar is basically untenable from a soccer standpoint as well. You can't play sports outside during the Qatari summer, and the heads of… Read more

We covered that, too! http://deadspin.com/report-fifa-vp… Read more

If you click through to the report and go to page 15, there's a sidebar with fatality numbers for World Cup and Olympic construction projects in other countries. Seven workers died during Brazil's World Cup construction. Read more

Oh... Read more

That's a fair criticism! What do you love about Wichita State? Read more

What the hell, I had no idea people were putting so many y's into names. This is upsetting. Read more

Thanks! Read more

Ohhhh shit. Sorry, Cory Schneider! Read more

I would absolutely put him ahead of Howard at this point. Dwight's been in the league for 9 years now and his game still has way too many blemishes. The rebounding and dunking and shot blocking will always be there as long as his athleticism is, but he doesn't really have any other weapons. The foul shooting will… Read more
