Claiming that tackles get away with all the time and then using a game from three years ago doesn’t really help your case.

No! Dan Dickerson was awful on TV! I can’t even describe how bad he was. Please, please, don’t let him do the TV coverage. Please!

Don’t wait 10 years. I’d check with Petchesky now if I were you. Or at least keep an eye on your coffee.

It’s hard to tell anyone’s true motivations, but from the linked article there is this - “The transgender student also said it was not the teachers’ fault, writing that they were only doing what they were told.”

ask Tom Wilson. He’s got a lot of free time.

But I miss the days when Shanahan did the narration.

“making public restricted personal information”

How do you interpret that as Lauren hoping that Wilson beats on Marchand? Anyone who follows hockey will know Wilson is likely to come after Marchand for this - stating the fact doesn’t mean you hope it happens. (OK, I do hope it happens, but in a fight like the weenie Marchand started, not in the open ice head…

I agree with you, but what country are you from where “shit of get out of the pool” is a saying?

I replied earlier to Zukka, but I’m in the greys, so...

With the 2-point conversion percentage around 50% it’s pretty much a wash. Browns would have had a 50% chance to put the game out of reach.

There are upsides to playing sports. There are upsides to lots of activities.

And what would you say to all the kids on the swim teams, the water polo teams, and the field hockey teams? Lacrosse? Tennis? Ice Hockey? Soccer?

I bet you’ll notice small details you’ve generally been too caught in conversation to pick up on:

Immediately changing my internal identification while reading the Root from Saltine American to Mayonnaisian. That’s a label I can get behind! 

Just pointing out that maybe you could step outside the literal “but you gotta touch Braille” to imagine that having us sighted folks seeing the uniforms and thinking “Huh, Braille.” and then giving a little more thought about the visually impaired. So maybe it’s not utterly stupid. (Or just taking a minute to wonder…
