Calling it now:

You know how franchises work? They’re usually owned by a local business person who probably owns multiple stores in the area. They contract with the franchisee to supply product and brand recognition.

But from the sounds of it this massage parlor was part of a larger organization. So it wasn’t a “small business” any more than your local McDonald’s franchise. 

Dog Army is to GoT as Eagles are to The Hobbit.

But the ball IS going up!!!! In the course of a shot the ball will arc! From the point it leaves the shooter’s hands gravity begins to pull it the ball...fuck this. I don’t need to explain this! The ball was clearly still going UP when it was blocked.

No. The ball can not be in the downward flight of its trajectory. That ball clearly was still going up. Read the rules.

Actually this is a good move for him. TV is a dead end career these days. I did it for fifteen years and had the time of my life. Those days are gone.

The solution is to make PI 15 years and an automatic first down.And a balance in rule make offensive holding legal.

This is a stupid take. The point of the Romo “worship” is he is better by a long shot than other color commentators. Hyperbole aside - no, he should not be handed the HC job anywhere based on his booth performance - he is miles better than any other color guy in the NFL. Let’s

As a former behind the scenes broadcasting guy I can say there are a few reasons. First of all, Romo is smart, quick, and decisive. Not all commentators have all three traits. They might be able to see what’s going on but not be able to articulate it in the seconds before a snap. Booth guys hate to be wrong. Remember…

He’s lapsing into infrared, invisible to the human eye.

Unless you’re allergic. Then it’s “returning to normal breathing thanks to emergency inhaler warm”.

But how does it work then? Is a “franchise” the owner? The players? A license granted by the NFL?

But mentioning abortion as a possible choice is the point of being pro choice! If someone chooses to go ahead with a pregnancy that isn’t being “pro-life”, that’s just making choice of the available options.

I would argue that Juno is a pro choice film. Just that he choice was not to abort.

Hmm. Not really. But keep working on your graduate thesis! :)

My first speeding ticket was 70 in a 35. I was going a lot faster than that. The radar didn’t lock right away so I “got away” with hitting 100. Because it was double the limit I got a free trip to court. I had to skip school to make it. I plead guilty, paid the fine, and headed back to class. On the way back I got…

Isn’t it a little short for a work truck?

Each offsides penalty seemed increasingly deliberate. I wonder if they were semi-intentionally jumping to spook the kicker or figured the refs missed the earlier one one that cost them a TD so they were expecting a payback non-call.
