The NFLs concussion protocols continue to be complete bullshit. Somebody, not on a team’s payroll, needs to be protecting these guys from themselves and the coaches who obviously care more about a win and preserving their jobs than if their players are able to speak in complete sentences in their 50s. If a guy that…

I wouldn’t be surprised if some of them just don’t want Jerry to get his way. In all honesty, I kinda want Goodell to come out on top because fuck everything about Jerry always getting his way.  

I don’t like street circuits, but especially not for bikes.

If they can force JJ out it would be the greatest victory for common decency in the history of time.

Tonight there are unanswered questions about Preston’s vehicle, but the crash resolved two of them:

it could be he actually made it worse by adding another obstacle

The upside is the cars that crashed were (mostly) able to slow down before they came upon the accident. Had he sat in his car and done nothing, instead of injuries, someone likely would have been killed.

“he broke one of the first rules of being on a hot track. You NEVER get out of the vehicle, unbuckle, etc until the track has been red flagged and cleared”

I second this - it seemed like is primary motive was to run back to warn other drivers, trying to help avoid more piling up. Yes he put himself at risk by getting out of the car, but if he hadn’t, he would have probably been in much worse shape anyway, and it would have been the car in front of his that got hit…

The ‘Ring is technically a public toll road. If there was a flag stand nearby slowing cars before the accident, I would agree he was not being very smart. But with no flagger in sight, he did the right thing.

I get you but I don’t think this is a typical HPDE. It looked like the guy checked his mirrors and his surroundings before getting out. I think he took a calculated risk to possibly endanger himself to try and reduce the chances that more cars would fly into that situation unable to stop with the hopes of preventing…

No the stupidest rule is you get flagged for throwing the ball away but throwing it at your feet is OK.

I feel like the issue might be more craft brewer’s increasing zeal for making ever-hoppier beers. I feel like a Sierra Nevada is the platonic ideal of a hoppy beer. Anything hoppier than that I feel like I’m drinking a smoothie made from pine cones.

This is what I do at parties.

I’m with you. Nothing tastes better on cereal than a nice big pour of winged beans.

Also a reminder of why I keep voting Republican. You people are terrible.

Psyched for Carlos Beltran. Glad he got his ring.

Came here to say this:

As a Dodgers fan, I’m ok with the suspension being moved to next season. This has been such a fantastic series that I don’t think it needs this hanging over it. His eventual punishment fits the crime.

That play at home is perfect baseball.
