    OT: Raptors moves

    It's all salary, in my opinion. Turkoglu was being overpaid for 4 years and Jose for 3. Barbosa and Diaw are being overpaid for 2 and Chandler for 1. I think he deserves a lot of credit for being able to get rid of Turk without having to entice teams with draft picks/prospects. When it became...

    Vonn's medal taken back!

    I thought it was kinda funny. Don't necessarily agree with it, but that doesn't really change much.

    Halal Burger 'Discrimination' Stirs Debate in France

    It's gotten so ridiculous. What it boils down to is France's anxiety over the fact that everyone in their country isn't white, French-speaking, with French/Catholic roots. The country (and Europe as a whole, to a lesser extent) has turned Islam into a caricature so that they can persecute...

    "The" Winter Olympics thread

    Shaun White was dominant. He's got a grip on that sport like Team USA and Canada do on women's hockey. I never thought I'd say this about a figure skater, but that Russian dude Plushenko was pretty badass. He called out other skaters' masculinity for not attempting the quad and went ahead to...

    "The" Winter Olympics thread

    Not sure if anyone caught the women's mogul last night, but it was awesome. They had the best skiers at the end, so it really got tense the longer it went on. Two really talented skiers (a Canadian and American) wiped out because they were gunning for gold, went too fast, and lost control. The...

    Worst Dunk Contest Ever.

    What's amazing is when they talk to VC and he's like "I've never tried that dunk before" or "I just decided to try that one right now." Most players couldn't do what he did even if they practiced for weeks.

    Worst Dunk Contest Ever.

    I re-watched the 2000 contest last night. That was a mistake...

    "The" Winter Olympics thread

    The malfunctioning pillars led to a hilariously awkward situation. I was hoping Gretzky's car would accidentally take a wrong turn and have to drive through Downtown Eastside.

    "The" Winter Olympics thread

    This segment of the opening ceremonies devoted to indigenous peoples is pretty cool.

    Haiti: Blame Voodoo?

    This is such a terrible article.

    "The" Winter Olympics thread

    I'll always talk trash about Vancouver because of family who live there, but goddamn I wish I was there right now. Had plans to but ultimately had to bail on them due to insufficient funds. I can't wait for Olympic hockey.

    Oliver Stone's 'Secret History' to put Hitler 'in context'

    I loved this part. So basically, he read a couple history books, found some overlooked nuances that complicate mainstream knowledge, and now thinks he's playing out the allegory of the cave. How does knowing about corporate American connections with Nazi Germany make Hitler any less of a...

    Trade for Bosh!!

    This "rent-a-Bosh" argument in respect to assessing what Toronto could get for Bosh needs to be addressed. The only two priorities Bosh has stated for his new contract are (1) receiving max money, and (2) being somewhere he thinks he can win a championship soon. The first goes without saying...

    I think my easy bruising brought me down. Curse my soft, delicate flesh!
