Don’t look at the Trump et al. conduct as a point of comparison. Just because they are trash people with zero morals doesn’t give anyone else license to compromise on theirs. At all times we should be better.

Can anyone tell me if this kid is a humanitarian ?

The relationship between players and management is governed by their respective collective bargaining agreements. The NFL’s agreement is silent with respect to the kneeling protests so, aside from being incredibly racist, the NFL should not be allowed to discipline players for kneeling. I do not know about the MLB,…

Why isn’t this articles shared on Deadspin? I just read a dumb take on freaking birds...

The fact that you can write this article without referencing a certain qb with a grievance pending is certainly confusing and makes you seem either naive or hyperbolic. Rosen is case study number 130492323.

I mean, Simmons is kinda correct. The first tweet misrepresents what was said and who was saying it. The correction is more accurate, but it still presents Lombardi’s sources’ opinions as his own.

In some boardroom of these massive publications that should know better there is some a-hole who is making a business argument in favor of publishing these wing-nuts. I would really like to know who these people are, what their argument is, what the other voices in the room are saying, and what the final rationale…

What...the...everlasting...f*** is wrong with people?

the NCAA is never going to change on their own, it will have to be motivated by external pressure. Obviously, we would all like the government to threaten their tax exempt status unless they start paying all of their employees, but who knows what will happen with this administration.

Fuck you, Fred Armisen’s dad.

Not all opinions have value. If you think the opinion in question is “disreputable” (as pulled from the block quote above), then you should not promote it in your periodical. This is not a “both sides get a voice situation.” Watson is correct in calling out, what I would term, the “Fuckery” of the NYT editorial board.…

It’s the New York Times opinion section. They’re America’s paper of record, it’s okay to hold them to a higher standard than the clickbaiting “just asking questions” stuff they’ve been putting out recently and the voices they’ve chosen to promote over other, arguably more deserving, ones

pretty well known fact that a lot of modern-day-wanna-be-nazis and alt-righters/white nationalists embrace a mythologicized view (is that even a word) of northern european countries selectively embracing/adopting elements/symbols/words from their histories. probably because of their extreme paleness and historical…

LOL Back in the day (20s-50s) “lavender man” meant something very specific I don’t get think you meant walk into with that, but funny nonetheless.

I wasn’t expecting to die this way and now that I am, all I have are questions: is he a lavender man? ocean breeze? maybe some sort of vanilla concoction??

What’s a Lebron Duck?

It sounds like you are defending an industry rather than the individual’s actions in this case. Yes, there is a far greater than zero chance that their response was inevitable, but she really did little to nothing by the way of selling her services.

Unfortunately, it is not uncommon for people who have done completely horrible things to rationalize it like they are the victims. No matter what they have done, people always believe that they are “good.”

No, you didn’t chip in, you get Honeydew

I don’t care for chocolate covered fruit. Just gimme the pineapple chunks.
