Defector is the best website on the internet atm. I mean that because its writing is great, of course, but also because it's just exceptionally *functional* and *intuitive* in ways that pretty much every other website isn't. Nice work, gang. Proud to have worked with many of you at Good Deadspin.

Wanted to see Northeastern vs. Denver. Tickets are minimum $275 on third party ticket sites. $275 to see a fucking college hockey game, lmao. Nothing works, not even the most minor of things.

I personally love how it costs rent to go to any sporting event because bots buy every available ticket and then vibes gamble on pricing. The coolest part is when, inevitably, every single arena is simultaneously half full and "sold out". It's a great time to be alive in America.

NEWS: The Boston Bruins announced they will retire Zdeno Chara's No. 33 in January.

Chara, Boston's captain for 14 years, is the NHL's all-time leader in games played by a defenseman (1,680).

Would really love Liverpool players to stop clipping no-look and inevitably errant passes into the middle of the pitch.

Antoine Semenyo in full flight is one of the Premier League’s great joys The Bournemouth winger has taken another step in his progression, so enjoy him at the Vitality while you still can

For no reason at all I'm re-upping this one I wrote about Semenyo last week:

Preempting the “but cancer treatments DO work they’re just expensive” crowd. Do they actually work, functionally (grammatically?) if even ONE person on earth can’t afford them and therefore dies instead? Like in a world where a cure exists but is gate-kept and people die, sorry, that doesn’t work.

Like ofc this is very small potatoes but it’s just further proof that everything is expensive and nothing works. That’s just the rule of contemporary living, whether you’re getting a smoothie (lid shatters, soaks your shirt) or have cancer (can’t afford the treatment, dies).

I have to assume the Verizon World Cup ticket thing was either fake or dominated by bots because I tired getting tickets to Boston, Ny, Atlanta, and Dallas, and despite clicking “claim these tickets” milliseconds after they all went live I had zero luck. Everything about contemporary life is trash.
