You’re right. It was probably a settee.

Sadly, no. Just a fellow UMBC history grad taken vicarious pride in another alum’s financial success.

Per Inside Lacrosse, Princeton released a statement saying that the incident will be reviewed.

As someone who has a degree in history and who makes a ton of money making awesome looking yet disgusting tasting cakes and licensing my name, I can attest that studying history can give you a sound foundation of analytical thinking, clear communication, and the ability to appreciate how our present world came to be.

Just a “P” and a little bit of an “S.”

Exactly. If you want to make a joke a group like lesbians, at least put some effort into understanding what it might be like to be a masculine appearing woman and/or a lesbian and give us some witty commentary.

This x 1,000. I know I am late to this thread, but just because people didn’t find your joke funny, doesn’t mean we didn’t get it. The problem with this “joke” and so many others is that it looks PRECISELY like the type of bigoted comments one might here about a woman like Wambach’s masculinity. Satire is suppose to…

Next I want someone to produce a bracket for the mens tournament that pits each teams criminal records and/or scandals against each other. I was thinking about this when Yale played Baylor in the first round. Sure, Yale was in the middle of a scandal when the the tournament started, but Baylor has such a deep bench of…

My point was less whether they are doing well (I honestly have no idea past that women athletes tend to do much better in school than men) than that no one gives a rat’s ass. All this handwringing about whether UConn is ruining women’s college basketball or not, no one asks what this means to their school work and…

But how are their grades? Are they doing well in school? Are they building character and skills that will make them professionals in a field other than....Bwahahahahahaha.

One thing I have learned by reading Gawker sites, including the comment sections. is that nothing of note happened before the fall of the Berlin Wall. It’s all some hazy “there be dragons” type place.

We referred to our color guard in high school as the F-Troop.

And the union membership.

Having kids reach the age of 9 without knowing about hate, prejudice, violence, racism, sexual predation, and the rest of it is evidence of a pretty privileged life, to be sure.

You forgot about the ancient aliens, who, in the History Channel’s defense, also influenced the Nazis.

No visit to the Holocaust Memorial Museum? Drew! You live in DC! It’s right down town and it’s FREE!

And “Generals” do not have a reputation for being a winning team name.

And lets not forget The Bullets. As appropriate now as back in the day. But it’s been taken and disposed of. Damn Political Correctness!

Truth be told back when they had the contest to name the Ravens, my idea was The Chesapeake Watermen to embrace the whole region and honor an important local industry. Part of my plan was to resurrect the old Natty Boh characters from their “Land of Pleasant Living” campaigns of yesteryear which included, if I recall…

I was thinking more of The Screaming Fat Transvestites as homage to Divine, or as someone else on this thread said The Pink Flamingos. (Of course considering how much some Colts fans still whine about the move, The Cry Babies wouldn’t be too inappropriate)
