I’d want to learn a little more before coming to that conclusion, especially since he recorded the conversation with her.

A full percentage point drop in BAC?

Don’t start with the “do you pay income taxes when you go on a business trip” condescending bullshit when you literally do not know what you’re talking about. There have been articles on the jock tax pretty regularly in sports and mainstream press for like ten years. It’s common knowledge at this point. Don’t you…

I’m just coming back to call you an asshole again for being so aggressively wrong. Thanks for correcting information that actually was already correct. Fucktard. Here’s an article that includes the statement that NHL players actually lose money playing games in TN when you compare game checks to the taxes TN charges:

Please google shit before you start correcting people. You’re flatly wrong about players and their taxes. The certainty with which you stated that entirely wrong conclusion about tax law makes me sad. What else are you entirely sure of and yet 100% wrong? Probably a lot.

Who knew? Jeremy is just a huge fan of the Heller case.

Yeah, there’s definitely a correlation vs causation issue here. It could be that since they want to keep salaries down by playing younger guys they have to find players “preloaded” with very specialized talents just as easily as it could be Barry’s theory.

Not to mention that they pay taxes that none of us even think about (including paying income tax in every state where they play a game) and have the worst kind of peer pressure because they work with millionaires that expect rookies to pick up a few dinner tabs and will give them a hard time if they don’t have nice…

I’m with you. That’s their lifetime earnings in some cases, and the average salary is the lowest of the four major sports. They’ll die younger for having played. Football is our generation’s boxing, and it’s too bad because I like watching football (I like watching boxing too, actually).

Right. I like how he handled that, but don’t like the feeling of starring how profitable racism can be. It is hilarious that NASCAR is all the way back to supporting him now.

I’m not a big fan of communism anyway.

Can you add a middle finger button on Kinja so I can acknowledge something like this and raise it to the top for others to see, without fucking starring it?

I think it took 15 pitches before it felt good. Something like that.

Oh, so that’s the first anyone used “without borders”? Good job NBA/FIBA — that’s pretty original.

I don’t think the Academy writes the jokes. I do think that Chris Rock would rather be funny that universally understood and that he did know not everyone would get that joke, but that those of us that do would enjoy it ... a lot.

You have as good a guess as anyone because no one was even tracking how many unarmed people were shot by police — nor were they tracking how many people, period, were shot by police. Chances are it was at least as many when crime rates were higher (as they were in the past) but that now it’s more reported on and…

In this case, getting off of our duffs and DOing means watching TV, right? I’m not being a smartass, but that’s your point, if we want shows like this we’ll have to be the type of uninformed fucktards that get our news from cable TV. Your point is a rational one, but framing watching cable news like it’s the March on…

Even with not famous guests, we were trained not to even say the room number out loud when giving someone their key. You just point to where it’s written. For obvious safety/liability reasons. It’s absurd that someone would think it’s okay to give out that information and to put him next to her, considering she was a…

About that. Don’t google “Scalia”.

You can have a good salary and not feed your family
