It's a perfect shot. There's nothing exactly...

How To Survive An Office Meeting: A Guide For Sad Drones
One of the terrors of the modern office job is the meeting, wherein everyone in a particular business unit of a company converges to sit around a sad, grey conference table to recite terms like report and action item and iteration and suboptimal at each other in the hope that these will conjure, m...

Dunking On Pau Gasol Is Fun
Nikola Vucevic's dunk on Pau Gasol reminded me of the time Blake Griffin ruined Pau twice in one game. Dunks are so much better/funnier when the guy getting dunked on falls over....
Nikola Vucevic Whomps On Pau Gasol's Head With Dunk
Pau Gasol is having his best season in a couple of years, suggesting that his recent demise wasn't about physical ability but the psychic torture that the Mike D'Antoni-Dwight Howard-Old Kobe Bryant-Nick Young Los Angeles Lakers imposed upon him.

I love Sundays, but not the way I used to. Time was, it was a day for sleeping in, going to brunch, watching sports, ordering a pizza, dicking around.
