David Brooks got high a couple times, did poorly on his English presentation. 

Heh.

That is just brilliant.
Sometimes I just hate my generation (like when reading the Brooks piece) and then there are examples like this that show that not all of us are self important jerks.

You're not human if you don't hate your generation. 

(Not your generation specifically, whatever generation you are a part of.)
I can't believe I even know these people. I'm ashamed of my internet life.

This is the lead "Cubs" story on ESPNChicago.com, featured right next to a big Cubs logo.

QuoteA Chicago Cubs curse could fit the bill if Texas Rangers fans are looking for something to blame for Derek Holland's knee injury, which likely will keep him out until midseason.

It was Holland's dog, Wrigley, a boxer, who caused the starter to buckle on the stairs of his home and injure his left knee badly enough that he needed arthroscopic surgery Friday morning to repair torn cartilage.

That's the only mention of the Cubs in the entire post.  (Pat Hughes: "I've got some breaking news for you!")  Hats off to hack writer Richard Durrett.



Dick here gets a solid C.  Next time, work Bartman and the goat into it somehow.  Comedy gold.

It's probably automated and just feeds in.

Also, who cares?

Finally.  I've been waiting for someone to tie all this to the St. Louis Cardinals.

QuoteIt's only later, when we start feeling guilty about it, when we start trying to impose real life on sports again, that we start harping on "sportsmanship." It's a card we play when we want to feel superior. Like we're above it all.

But we are so, so not. We are the biggest hypocrites of all. When our team wins over our friend's team, we rub their face in it. Bragging rights are the point. We don't care how our team plays, not really: We just want them to win. We don't hold back. It's when the other guy, the one that just beat us, starts strutting that we get upset. That's when we suddenly start crowing about "sportsmanship."

Good God.

QuoteShortly before the decisive Game 5 of the 2013 National League Championship Series between the St. Louis Cardinals and the Pittsburgh Pirates, I, a Cardinals fan, texted my friend Dom Cosentino, a Pirates fan, the following message: "So, hey, good luck tonight. See you on the other side."

The worst.

Could you imagine receiving that text? What a smug piece of shit.

You don't fucking text that shit to a friend, if he's really your friend.

He gave the proper response.

Quote

Dom, then a Deadspin editor and now a Jets beat reporter for NJ.com (he broke that Kellen Winslow story last week), responded thusly: "Go f--- yourself." He even wrote a post about it. Everybody loved it.


I think everyone loved the idea of being able to text Emo Boy and telling him to go fuck himself.

He also seems to think that the Cardinal hate that showed up on the blogosphere last October was a one-off and that they aren't turning into the hilljack Yankees of Satanville.
