And this is where the Belichick/Popovich comparisons end.

Poor Cleveland.

It’s California--my vote for president doesn’t matter one way or the other.

Heavy lifting? I live in California--she won our 55 electoral votes the day she declared her candidacy.

You’re right in that voting for him will do nothing (as would my voting for Clinton), but you’re wrong about not being able to write him in CA--he didn’t register in CA, but others did on his behalf and is qualified.

I’m in a very safe state (California) and I will be voting for Sanders. I understand the argument that a forceful showing in the popular vote for Clinton will, hopefully, so chastise the Republicans for their three-decade march to their current candidate that they will gaze upon their navels and pull out some lint…

Just a holdover from when baseball managers were also players on the team.

The part-time ref thing undoubtedly started as a cost-saving measure in the NFL’s earlier days, and it did make sense--football is played once a week, whereas baseball and basketball have games going every day. The thing is, though, that refs who can afford to be part-time refs means that they make plenty in their…

When you’re the only one, seeking approval and acceptance is a thing, even if it means demeaning yourself.

It’s like those people (actual grown-ups) who wear their backpacks on crowded buses or subways--yes, your physical back may be one foot away from me, but your backpack protrudes 18-inches from your back so, yes, it is hitting me, you fuck. The crown of his actual head is pulverizing the collar bone (textbook!) while…

Where you come from, mayonnaise is what’s for dinner.

I’m an SF Giants fan and ventured into enemy territory once, years ago, during the Barry Bonds era. Whenever the dodgers are in SF, a good 10% of those in attendance are dodger fans, so I thought, stupidly, that we’d have the same numbers in LA. I was wrong. In the upper deck, there were maybe five of us, total. Early…

Those who would pick Trump based on that logic would choose Ryan Leaf over Jim Kelly because the former never failed in multiple Super Bowls.

And that former POW still supports Trump. Such is the insanity of that party.

Vin? He’s seen his team win the World Series three times this decade.

It’s super dumb, but some people in other comments have figured it has to mean that both teams are at risk of elimination, like a Game 7, I suppose. Who knows. I certainly have never heard of the term before today.

It’s 2016 and the 4th even year of the decade. We’ll take it.

Hehe, I love the angst the Giants cause Dodger fans.

I don’t know if I’m grizzled (yet), but there’s a whole mess of us who migrated from Candlestick. We may or may not look like those old plumbers and roofers and sheetmetal guys (those guys all moved away to Antioch or Stockton or Roseville), but we were there then and we’re still here now.
