I get it. I’d blow shit up, too, if I had a shitty 32” living room flat screen and my wife forgot to put out salad plates.

Can we talk about 2:29 in the video when a) the woman clearly does not realize that Theismann is not in the NFL Hall of Fame, and b) he kind of pretends that he is in the HOF?

The girl from the AT&T commercials is not “sneaky hot”...she’s just plain hot.

Having just done a similar move last summer (ATL to SEA), I can vouch for a lot of this advice. I feel like the “making friends” section needs to be a lot longer. The best advice I got (and implemented) was that I didn’t say “no” to a single invite to hang out or do something for the first six months (e.g. weird guy…

Step 1 cannot be understated. Just did the same move (except from Atlanta), and after discovering Seattle rent prices/housing market, I’m glad I had a gig before I moved.

Agreed. When I first saw his post-race interview, the cynical sports fan in me initially assumed he was just doing the usual “hope everyone is ok, lucky no one is hurt, etc.” thing. However, after remembering about his dad’s accident at this track and hearing this, it’s pretty clear he’s a good guy that was sincerely…

YEAHHHHHHH!

This is also why we may be more willing to pursue charges against them because less people care about the sport. If feds got involved with the NFL, everyone would be bitching “doesn’t the government have something better to do? Stay out of sports.” and complaining that the feds ruined the NFL. Less likely with soccer.

I’m no NFL defender, but can we really put it in the same sphere as these corrupt organizations? I mean...IOC and FIFA destroy countries and take bribes (not mention FIFA refs likely rigging matches), NCAA makes millions on the backs of unpaid labor, and I don’t know what F1 does but I’m sure they suck.

We can all agree that the ABC guy is the real-life Perd Hapley, right?

That's a huge fucking unexplained asterisk up there by racial composition of the fan base, which then serves as the basis for this entire article. Looking at the linked Nate Silver data, he seems to make the jump from avidity of a fan base to calling it a team's fan base without much thought; however, his data is…

I learned this fact about Russell Crowe being from NZ when I visited there and Australia. Apparently, Australia just claims anyone that moves there as their own (especially New Zealanders) and NZ just takes it. My question: why doesn't the US do this more often? Doesn't basically every athlete train in the US? We'd…

Am the only one that would use the Magic 8 Ball to improve my chances of becoming filthy rich? Sure, I might ask the "big" questions a few years down the line, but my first few would be: Will X Stock (or the market) go up by more than 10% this year? Will a team from the NFC win the Super Bowl (and then a subsequent…

Let me add that helping people interpret parking signs is also a thankless endeavor that I now almost always avoid. Living in the city, I have numerous parking signs in my neighborhood that vary for different parts of the street, and admittedly, they can be confusing at first glance. However, on multiple occasions,…

Yes, as an in-towner, I wouldn't have been thrilled with the GM plant site, but it would made a fuck more sense. And, unlike Cobb, it wouldn't have significantly impacted my attendance at games (just hop on MARTA); however, there's no way I'm braving 75/285 traffic on a weekday to go to a game (I chose to live…

+1 Not mention that they'd likely fair better with more than 11 people alive.

And, let us not forget that on numerous occasions, Cobb has voted down any attempt to bring public transit (MARTA) within its county limits, and recently, Cobb vehemently voted down a regional transportation improvement tax (for the whole Metro area) that may have helped to alleviate some of their traffic on troubles.…

Cool story, I'm a Braves fan that I know (I went to a games multiple times in the last two weeks), and I hate this move. Call me crazy, but perhaps your super scientific survey of "fans that actually go to the stadium" is a more confirmation bias than fact. Just a thought.

Glad to know I'm not the only one that hates GA scrolls. Also, it doesn't help that some of our stations (Fox5, I think?) still force my image from HD to SD for their stupid SD scrolls. Get with the damn times, Georgia!

Oh, totally agree that we can have different perspectives, and I didn't intend to make it personal (you stereotyped me as my unemphatic "ilk"...so, I stereotyped you). Anywho, I love my country (as you love yours...and I like it, too), and while the US may have its problems and annoy others in the world, I dislike…
