What would that accomplish that advocating as a high-profile athlete, making lots of money and probably donating a lot of it to good causes wouldn’t? Why do people seem to undervalue this sort of speech act as a way to make a difference, and why aren’t people allowed to advocate from the position they’ve worked hard…

“But this bullshit equivocation of Democrats as equally guilty for this ongoing police state is laughable to people who have been paying attention to the political landscape for the last forty years.”

Get your point, but also, only two wars in American history involved anyone’s rights: Revolutionary War, Civil War. Hitler was never invading the US. War absolutely worth fighting, but the civil liberties of Americans were not being threatened.

If Sherman and Grant had just teamed up and burnt everything from DC to the Everglades to the ground, and Lincoln had tried all the Confederate leaders as war criminals, we would be in a much better place today.

I feel like every WYTS for every NFC South team is the same (because the franchises are all the same). The Saints are a little different, but the Bucs, Falcons, and Panthers are all mostly irrelevant teams that can’t stay good for more than a year or two and have mostly apathetic fanbases.

If General William Tecumseh Sherman would have done a better job, we wouldn’t have to witness this yearly March to Seven and Nine.

I didn’t say we (the Giants) were competent, just that we don’t always have to be.

Soccer is boring and Europeans have bad taste.

A friend of mine told me these two hot takes back in 2007 & 2008. The first came up after Spygate, my buddy (big Vikings fan) said he believes the Giants hacked into the Vikings radio calls in the 2001 NFC Championship game when the Giants won 41-0. Don’t know why I believe it but I do.

I believe that the NFL wanted their golden boy Peyton Manning to win the Super Bowl in his farewell, and swept his HGH allegations under the rug, and didn't want Cam as their face of SB50. Will go to the grave believing that.

Soccer is a boring, wussy, and inferior sport with no merit to be consistently covered by major media outlets in North America.

I hate myself for it, but all of those NHL toughness memes.

Delonte banging LeBron’s mom.

You’re welcome. My point still stands.

The difference is they were asking about a country that mattered, not that still bows to the Queen and makes no difference in world affairs.

In a way, this is its own revelation. For some reason people think of Europe as this sort of enlightened erudite wonderland utopia where everyone was formerly an Oxford scholar. No it’s filled with ignoramuses and get a brain moran guys just like everyone else.
