Music and drama and journalism are academic pursuits.

Yeah, I really don’t care if those sports get thrown out with the bathwater. They don’t really serve any purpose in higher ed. They can always play club sports or intramurals if they want.

Nah because they’ll be good enough to won like the 8th seed in the playoffs and miss the lottery. Aka NBA hell.

Ban college sports, it’s the fucking worst.

He made his own decision to sacrifice money for the personal gain of winning 2 more championships. Some say he sacrificed “for the team”; you could also say he sacrificed “for his legacy.” If that trade-off wasn’t worth it to him, then he shouldn’t have done it.

1988 presidential election, because I was in first grade and we had a mock election.

To be fair, flag etiquette is not something taught at any level of education in the U.S. (Nor am I advocating for it to be. Personally I don’t give a fuck what someone does with the flag. But it’s not entirely common knowledge.)

Over the last 3 years, Lin has been worth 10.6 win shares; Derrick Rose 1.7.

Yeah...altruism/charity/philanthropy has been supported for centuries by the fact that people feel better about themselves when they do it.

Dick Thickley Doubts Zurlon “Just The” Tipton

But i think that if women want to have unprotected sex with whoever and get multiple abortions, that’s entirely their prerogative. It’s their body, i don’t care how many abortions they have for whatever frivolous reason.

Westbrook isn’t that much better than Rose that he’d have gotten the Bulls past Lebron.

Nobody gives a shit about his high school titles, and we only slightly care about his college championships.

St. Louis’ murder rate is several times higher than Chicago’s.

Crazy amounts of water per unit of beef yes, but I don’t think it’s true for milk.

Agree, sports fandom is just another tribe. Humans all over the world of every age have tribes that they attach their self-worth to (race, country, religion, political party, college, Xbox vs Playstation), and will defend irrationally...it’s pretty much the source of like all societal conflict, aside from conflict due…

That’s not Redford’s take, but rather what he predicts the casual fan and/or dumb pundits will say.
