Most of my issues with the Ringer have been minor but putting "The Ski Lift" at #60 on the Curb Your Enthusiasm episode rankings is a loving crime

Slurs makes about as much sense as Libtards. I guess what I'm saying is that conservatives/assholes usually aren't very clever, thoughtful, or funny.

'Slurs' rhymes with 'Spurs', but there's no clear. Is the word 'Spur' a slur against someone? When he changes Spur to Slur, does 'Slur' become a euphamism for the N word? So maybe he's just trying to call them the N word.

So I really like Ben Lindbergh's work, both on baseball and video games. But man, does he have a weird voice. It's like he's constantly terrified that he's going to piss his pants or be interrupted by his dad. Does anyone else notice this? It's so weird.

When I got to meet him the other week I said "I know how you sound, obviously, and I know how you look from Twitter and whatnot, but seeing your voice come out of your face was...weird." and apparently I'm not the first person to tell him that.

They're speculating the athletic in the main hockey thread but I'm not sure, everyone else who left for them just said so outright.

It was so poorly designed and/or ugly that I found myself struggling to find the good content or the things I wanted to read. At least compared to other sites I frequent. So i unbookmarked it.

I follow the three decent writers they have left (Passan, Wetzel and Robinson) on twitter and wait for them to publish the links there then read it. It's design is so poor that you can't tell who's written what

Whenever a site does a redesign there are always people mad but when Yahoo Sports did basically everyone hated the new design and they were absolutely right to. Wasn't it forced on them by some higher up who didn't actually work with them on it?

"How Clay Travis rode the Trump wave from ordinary sports blogger to well-paid darling of the alt-right" Interesting thru-line of how easy, cheap clickbait about sports turned into politics for Clay Travis.

As a huge fan of the general entertainment league that is the NBA, these are my favorite write-ups of the year. http://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/20849806/zach-lowe-2017-18-nba-league-pass-rankings-part-1 http://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/20849807/zach-lowe-2017-18-nba-league-pass-rankings-part-2 Lowe is incredibly knowledgeable and knows how to touch on all the little details that make watching an NBA game fun.

He's gonna be the bizarro version of Dave Zirin, the sports journalist for The Nation. They'll be booked to scream at each other for decades on television or FB Live or whatever brain implant is trendy in 2030.

If he doesn't, it's squeezing as much money as he can out of these morons before the well runs dry or the gig is up. Basically the usual playbook when it comes to fleecing the right wing.
