The mom joke sealed it for me. I'm using the oven this morning.

I could think of about 12 Reasons but I wouldn't to make you click through to them all.

I don't think it will change anything as far as of U.S. relations are concerned, and I also think that worrying about potential insult to people who have no way of ever connecting to media that would make them aware of those insults is pretty excessive.

Consider this through the lens of "Kim Jong Un is a new leader who had a westernized upbringing and could very well end up bringing gradual change to the regime." Maybe palling around with young dictators and exposing them to two entities (Rodman and Vice) who are showcases of the freedoms we enjoy, might not be such…

Yep, if your first reaction to everything you read on the internet is to curse hipsters and get outraged, you are indeed "Gawker for life." The question is, isn't Reddit at least partly to blame for all of this?

Sports rivalries would be so much better if it were the actual cities competing against one another instead of two random billionaires who rarely even travel with the team.

amen.

Whatever age Katy Perry is when John Mayer gets her pregnant.

It's not an official rule but it's how a talentless ex-jock without a personality gets invited to do "color commentary" for the Super Bowl: he's proven to be a trustworthy shill for the NFL brand.

The announcers aren't allowed to tarnish the NFL on CBS brand by questioning a game-deciding call in the sport's biggest contest.

Yeah they tried to snark it up in the headline but a more appropriate title would have been "OMG free food and famous people!"

Another Gawker site ran pretty much the same story last summer:

I definitely never said anything like that but enjoy arguing with your straw man.

No, you're absolutely right: the fact that 70 percent of NFL players are black but only 10% of starting quarterbacks are has nothing to do with racism. We have two black senators now! Post-racial America is here to stay!

Right. And some of the white ones even get to keep playing quarterback in college!

No, you're absolutely right: today's ignorance is mostly just rooted in the racism of the past. There are probably very few college coaches actively discriminating against black players, but they're resistant to change and still hold on the most of the ideas that their actually-racist predecessors had about the…

No, as I mentioned in another thread, I have no idea whether or not Bobby Petrino actually hates black people or intentionally discriminates against them. That was hyperbole. My actual point was more that the college coaches are collectively (whether consciously or unconsciously) discriminating against black…

Actually if you look into he's on the record. He was extremely pissed about the situation and claims he was lied to in order to get him to not transfer.

What's the issue then, if not the eagerness of college coaches to convert black high school quarterbacks to other positions in favor of guys like John Parker Wilson, Ken Dorsey or David Ash?

Right, I wasn't actually making a claim about how Kaep's agent feels about race and the quarterback position. My point is that Colin Kaepernick is going to make several times as much money over the course of his career as Bush. Maybe that's a result of him being a much better quarterback talent, but we'll never know.
