Sometimes acting in plays, sometimes writing them. Go Birds, Go Phils, fuck TERFs I was bad at Twitter, now I get to be bad this.

They're full of talent, but they just aren't built for a fight. Rob Thomson has kept his job for this long essentially because he's been more of a babysitter than a manger, but at some point something has to give.

They couldn’t pinch run, because you need to have a pinch runner for Bader’s pinch hit, so I don’t have an issue with that, but knowing that and knowing the (lack of speed) you have on the bag, DON’T FUCKING BUNT.

That bunt was downright malpractice from Topper. You have your second slowest runner on second, what did you think was going to happen?

Luzardo should be allowed to hit Harper and Topper in the nuts with a baseball bat

Luvu’s dirty hit against Hurts that took him out of the Commanders game wasn’t called a penalty, but when Baun tries to finish a play not whistled dead yet and even tries to pull away as best he can once it is, well, you just have to respect the letter of the law there.

If you have a VPN, look up the broadcast maps, and ping in from a place where the game is being broadcast, then go to the Fox Sports website and you should be able to watch

Yeah, this is my takeaway as well. Eagles had plenty of opportunities to put this away and not allow the refs to fuck them over at the end, but they couldn’t do it. It’s harder to swallow because the refs were so bad, but if the takeaway is “the refs screwed us” then they’re not learning shit

The referees are making it hard for me to focus on how much I’m hating the eagles

I mean the Eagles blew this game with sloppy sloppy play, but that call.

Genuinely loving the Eagles winning offensive strategy of “Incompetence, Incompetence, Incompetence, Dagger”

Schwarber and Bader’s fly outs looked gone off the bat, and they just died. That one looked like a fly out off the bat, and it just kept carrying. It’s not fucking fair.

Getting up there and unleashing a joke-free 30-minute story during which you nearly cry several times talking about how Kevin Hart wanted to host the Oscars, and almost did, but didn't, because they took it from him—in Riyadh. Laughter truly is the universal language.

Little on the nose to have the Rams sacrificed so soon after Yom Kippur.

Kicking a field goal to tie at the end of overtime isn’t so much a Buzzer Beater as it is a Buzzer Accepter

This game has a 100.00% chance of ending in Scorigami.
