It's honestly so liberating the first time you go to a theater by yourself because you realize you can just, like, go see any movie whenever you want and then you realize how many times you've deprived yourself from experiencing stuff you like due to a stigma.

i don't want to be a gatekeeper, so i'm not going to say that people who agree with this tweet don't actually like movies. not gonna say it.

BREAKING: The Sixers are bringing Hip Hop back for a few games this season, to celebrate the 2001 team.

Bill Roth, who played the mascot from 1998-2011, will come out of rabbit retirement, too.

(He'll try not to tear an ACL or achilles this time).

Teoscar Hernandez is like a video game create-a-player where you put all your points into power but to do it you decrease his sliders in every other category.

The Milwaukee Bucks are signing Alex Antetokounmpo to a two-way NBA deal, joining older brothers Giannis and Thanasis, Octagon's Alex Saratsis tells ESPN. This marks the first time in NBA history that three brothers are on active roster contracts with the same team.

Hark! Making my triumphant return to the world of fantasy sports writing for the first time in 11 years somehow, I have written about Ace Bailey for Razzball! Feast your eyes, mortals:

Preseason Spotlight: Ace In The Hole

I’ve been around the sun a while when it comes to fantasy basketball, and if there’s one maxim I’ve picked up in all my fake-hoops-team managing, it’s that it generally pays to draft young players and to avoid old players. There are some self-evident reasons for this (young players tend to be less injury-prone, for […]

The last time LeBron James did not play in a Season Opener was October 2002.

Michael Jordan and John Stockton played that night.

It's good! It's the kind of show I'd specifically recommend to ppl who are blegh about anime too, fwiw

You know what's a great little anime no one ever talks about? Deca-Dence. It's about people fending off giant bug monsters in a steampunky world but there's a very unique and inventive twist to it. Also the lead character is a woman with a prosthetic arm. I really like it and totally recommend it!

That's true. Plus there is a "team of destiny" thing to them where if they don't win it here, it's totally believable they might not come close for a while again

That new Nike/Ken Griffey Jr. ad features a snippet of Bo Jackson running up the wall in 1990 and I think you could go all in if you wanted that this was the single coolest play in baseball history
