The Celtics Are Starting To Play As A Collective Unit, Which Just So Happens To Be The Best Team In The NBA

Last night’s Game 3 win was massive, no two ways about it. Here’s the thing though…. …….the Celtics can play better. Much better in fact. In fact, they’ve had better performances in these very playoffs, not just counting Game 2. Now maybe that feels like nitpicking, and I admit it is. But that’s what happens when you see what the Celts are truly capable of. The standard for them is insanely high because their ceiling is insanely high....

The Lack of Respect The Show 'Jury Duty' Had For Kirk Fox Is a Slap In The Face

If you haven’t watched Jury Duty on Amazon Prime yet, I give it my highest recommendation. They go through the whole trial with cameras following them in and out of the courtroom the entire time. Tons of insane, borderline unbelievable stuff happens, and Ronald completely takes the bait. One of the actors in the show is James Marsden, who plays himself. If you don’t recognize the name, you’ll probably recognize his face....

This Boston Red Sox Success This Season May Not Be A Mirage

I spent the entire off-season shitting on the Red Sox for what I saw was a terrible off-season. They let Xander Bogaerts go to the Padres and JD Martinez to the Dodgers. I mocked GM Chaim Bloom for overpaying Masataka Yoshida. Rumors were starting to bubble up that Bloom was on the hot seat. They started off 5-8 and looked like a dumpster fire in full flame. Not only have I been absolutely wrong but it’s time to throw some respect on the Red Sox....

Top 100 Movies Of The 1990's: #61 Magnolia

It’s also bloated with characters and too long. This is absolutely a movie with many flaws. But the strengths and genius of Paul Thomas Anderson far outweighs the negatives. A movie doesn’t need to be perfect for it to have great meaning. I feel like you see this kind of movie when a director finally gets major creative control. With Magnolia, he’s guilty of just doing too much. He’s so creative, he literally had too many good stories to tell....

A Blog About The Mintzy Stuff And The State Of Barstool

Yesterday Ben Mintz was fired. We weren’t told not to talk about it, not told how to reply, not told anything. Most company-wide emails are invitations to 3rd floor Par-tees or someone left their Airpods in the bathroom. Seriously, how do so many people leave Airpods in the bathroom? But anyway, sadly our King, Ben Mintz, was fired yesterday. He wasn’t fired by Dave or Erika, but by our overlords at PENN Entertainment....

A Breakdown Of The Writers' Strike, Some Of The Craziness That Transpired Last Time, And Loose Recollections From A Year In LA

The Writers Guild of America officially went on strike and began picketing this week. Their hiatus will effectively halt a lot of movie and TV projects in the pipeline across the entertainment industry.
