Oh, you don’t know? We got you.

GAME. BLOUSES.
After the Golden State Warriors blew a 3-1 lead to the Cleveland Cavaliers in the 2016 NBA Finals, their 2016-17 season started off as everyone expected — with a 29-point loss to the San Antonio Spurs at home.
Wait, really?

Yes, really. The Warriors went 7-of-33 from 3-point land, gave up 81 points combined to Kawhi Leonard, LaMarcus Aldridge and Jonathon Simmons, and were outrebounded by 20.
We get it, everybody wanted to see the warriors lose…..

#JoshBrown's actions didn't call into question #Giants character or integrity.
The #Giants inaction did — should've dropped him early on. https://t.co/VqdhSpMk7Z

Well, one thing we do know is that he will not be kicking for the Giants anymore.

#ICYMI
Don’t forget that President Barack Obama turns into “Barry” when it comes to the clapback. We know it was right there, but not everyone takes advantage of such a golden opportunity.
Trump: Obama will go down as the worst president in the history of the US.
Obama: Well at least I will go down as a president.
