Crazy Trump Supporter Pushes CNN's Brooke Baldwin To The Edge

What In The Hell Happened To Roman Britain?
Part of our shared culture is a basic, generally unspoken assumption that things are supposed to get better. Oppressed groups will have more rights in a few years than they have now. The economy overall will grow, even if an individual’s share might not. We’ll have cooler and more useful gadgets as ...
Baseball Players Get Really Deep When Their Teams Are Down 0-2<em></em>
Three of the four MLB division series have one team in an 0-2 hole. This isn’t a great spot to be in a best-of-five series, but it’s a very great spot for hearing the emptiest and most hackneyed postgame platitudes that athlete speak has to offer. Some highlights from this weekend, grouped by team s...

The Blue Jays Clanged A Bushel Of Dongers Off Yu Darvish
Yu Darvish is in the process of serving up a plate of nice tasty meatballs for Blue Jays hitters to feast on. Troy Tulowitzki first took Darvish deep in the second inning for a pair of runs, after which the Rangers managed to claw one back to make it a one-run game. So Toronto responded by pinging t...
Root For The Cubs In The Playoffs
The Chicago Cubs had the best record—103 wins, 58 losses—in major league baseball this season. They won the NL Central by a ridiculous 17.5 games over the butt St. Louis Cardinals.

Still Unclear About Whether My Eyes Are Deceiving Me Or Not
