DJExile posted:Yeah for all the different things ESPN/2 have covered, I really can't hate the bee. Fainting kid forever owns. They at least did a 30 minute special about the Dota 2 championships two years ago. They also broadcast the actual games on ESPN3 if you want to count that.

I've never cared for/about UFC and I liked the series. Though I'm surprised it took two years to make. It would seem like he could redo his audio such that he's either always in a studio or at least always in the same place because there were sections/takes where it was clear that he wasn't and it was a little bit jarring. Bois's graphic production was really good as usual, though.

R.D. Mangles posted:It should be completely legal for a pitcher to throw at a guy who batflips as long as he is not throwing a baseball but a banana cream pie And the batter can charge the mound afterwards only if he yells out "why I oughta..." and only if he winds up his punch with an exaggerated windmill motion. Or he has the option of trying to poke the pitcher in the eyes, but they can respond with the impenetrable "hand on the bridge of the nose" block maneuver.

2019 MLB Announcer Crew Rankings I think Kalas is just ... blah as hell. Blummer is fun and Julia is great (though I guess they don't count anyone not in the booth?), but Kalas just bores me to death. Wish they included the radio crews as well, Steve Sparks and Robert Ford have grown on me.

Akileese posted:https://deadspin.com/nationals-fans-didn-t-stick-to-sports-1839424010 Apropos of nothing else, this is a bit weird: quote:Mattress Mack is off oxygen and walking the hospital corridors like he will survive I guess they don't know he was placing all these large bets on the Astros as a hedge against his business deal where he LOSES money if the Astros win the WS, because he is going to refund a bunch of furniture purchases if/when that happens. He's probably leveraged in such a way at this point that he doesn't care either way from a financial standpoint. He does want them to win on a personal level though, he's a Houston icon/fixture/pretty good dude for the community.

Funny how he talks about knowing "Gravity Goldberg" because when I went over the 2019 NOTY bracket with my wife, she freaked out a bit because she went to school with Voltaire Casino.

The Defector folks essentially admitted he'd weasel out of it in the article and pre-called him out, so it's not like they expected half a mil in cash to show up overnight.

habeasdorkus posted:Kalyn Kalher is killing it on the Deshaun Watson story at Defector. Just a real good, deeply reported article that adds a ton of context. That was a really good read, and based on the fact that I loving hate Tony Buzbee and otherwise had no quarrel with Deshaun Watson I instinctively wanted to just say "nah they lyin'" but that article does put a lot of good context around it. Though still gently caress Tony Buzbee

fartknocker posted:Blake Bortles is old news. It’s all about Decaprio Bootle now. Did the defector do a Name of the Year contest yet? I'm pretty sure they did one before becoming the Defector because it had a former classmate of my wife in it (Voltaire Casino). Dicaprio Bootle would have to be on the bracket.
