I love it. Looks like he just finished another successful day loading trucks with pallets of Coors.

Yep.

I live here also, and that's been my experience too. But I think the old soccer mom/SUV cliche isn't accurate. It's much more often some young guy in a small car or pickup or small SUV thinking that he's in a Subaru commercial but not actually being able to handle the speed.

You do not get brownie points for climbing out of a hole you dug

I think the drawing is of the "black rist bange," which looks like a glove to me. Sochi is coming up, and she's thinking like Tommie Smith and John Carlos. Good kid there.

I mean, I don't know where to go from here. How is it, Kyle, that you are still so surprised that people are willing to accept physical damage for fun/thrills/excitement? People play football, ski, skateboard, drive way too fast, fight, do (actually bad) drugs, etc because they enjoy it, and don't live their life…

Nah. I'm no fan of the Pats, and I don't think there was any possible way that he was catching that ball regardless of contact (ahem, momentum), but that PI call is made fairly often in the NFL.

I agree. In this case, though, Gronk did a horrible job of trying to sell it. You wonder if he would have fought back toward the ball, they might have gotten the call.

Exactly

Great job identifying the metaphor. +1?

Sorry McCarver, I can't get behind this old-man outrage. I like when teams take crazy unusual approaches, and couldn't care less that the scoring goes through one person. Let sports be fun. Do we really need to make sure that every team, from the pros down through the last college level, is doing the same old…

Sin Demon people they falsified the research so that RDU-90 could be approved and devlin mcgregor could give you provasic.

Well sure, but that is the story in basically his words. It's an amazing article though, everyone should read it.

He kinda stepped in it in a similar way when defending Bill James and James' Paterno/Sandusky comments. In both situations, the tone of his defense was his normal pleasant logic, but his conclusion in both situations seems at odds with his normal social ethics — which suggests to most people that he's really just…

His lawyer has released statements, as his representative. That's how it works.

Yeah, you wonder if there could ever be a culture change regarding autographs. It's such a stupid thing — it so relentless that it totally dominates the fan - athlete interaction.

I know I'm sidestepping around the point of the story here, but are yellow cards really given out in pick up games?

Well, I don't need to have my opinion recognized and cherished.

Sure, why not feel free to complain about whatever book someone is reading or tv show they are watching? Gotta make sure people feel properly ashamed about their choice in food or clothes or whatever. No reason not to let fly with your precious opinion about something that they chose.
