this take is fire (and blood)

The theatre: where fans are deliberately placed to where they can potentially interfere with the play.... then get kicked out of the theatre for interfering with the play, as if the possibility of it happening never even occurred to anyone before.

In high school, I umped little league for some extra cash. Not once did I have a problem with a kid arguing a call. It was always coaches/parents who thought their kid was about 5 years from being the first 17 year old to win Rookie-of-the-year and MVP in same season.

I guarantee it’s worse than Lackey’s welcome back, for reasons completely unrelated to race. #LackLivesMatter

Reminds me of this old movie. Can’t think of the name.

The rats is Florida were a goal celebration (until this year when they got infracted for it). The octopus in Detroit is a pre-game playoff tradition. These are tossed onto the ice in the same way hats are for a hat trick, in celebration. Not with malice and with the intent of hitting someone.

At least the fans’ wrist shots were more accurate than the Flyers were.

Make America 8-8 again

Spot on. People pretend like economics is some hard science “right and wrong” all the time. It’s about trade-offs. Those that don’t acknowledge these trade-offs usually don’t have a real grasp on economics. Here, the trade-off is cheap(er) goods for horrible working conditions.

Meh. Manny Ramirez was famous for his upper deckers.

Morality, ethics, justice, and human decency do not figure into the calculations of capitalists. They are, by definition, concerned only with profit.

So the marketplace says that’s what people are worth, but what about things like morality, ethics, justice, or human decency? What do those say a person is worth? Or does that not fit Rovell’s worldview?

So which is it? Are they being forced by a lack of choice to work there or not?

Titans fans have to be used to getting hosed by now.

You should take things more seriously.

Believe it or not, this isn’t about you, cubs fan

How many losses already?! Count ‘em, Popp!!!
