Yes, I know a lot of staff stay at lower-than-average salaries so that their kids or themselves can get educated at a discount. It’s a powerful carrot.

Your estimate has to be wrong. According to USA Today above, Big Ten alone took in 450 million. Citation?

If the real investigative journalists had done their job better and faster with Trump, you wouldn’t have to be disappointed in entertainers.

That’s unfortunate. I don’t want to whitewash the story, but yeah, I could see some guys (a small minority) just wanting to give for the sake of giving and being misunderstood.

Yes! that’s a good one as well.

There’s a name I hadn’t heard in a while. Ouch, yes, was on this bandwagon at times.

Yes, I believe he led the league in giving up homers.

Yeah, I think you also have to factor in that Scherzer gives up a lot of homers. I’m not sure if that makes the homer he gave up better or worse, and makes it better or worse to pull him. But I feel it’s not as simple as Baker messing up here.

I definitely thought Luke Walton was going to become an above-average NBA player (hangs head). Open question, which mid-2000's high visibility/low talent Laker did you wildly overrate? Smush? Sasha? heh.

Yeah, the tone is insulting and stupid. I don’t care for this “You have no right” type shame trolling, and I don’t remember where The Ringer signed up to be an instrument of the Democratic Party.

Four shots should have been enough, but ironically it was the 5th shot that killed him.

Glad that this religion issue is leading to a discussion of abortion. It’s the type of debate topic that I want to hear candidates opine on, rather than personal character topics.

Gives “We’re doing it live” a whole new meaning.

Ok, the skinning the raccoon story wins. You have good reason for that drinking problem.

If you only have a minute, recommend you start at 1:50.

Exactly. To use an old Gawker Media term, this is “humanizing”; makes him easier to relate to.

Yeah, I can see this actually backfiring. I thought he was only a safari-type fatcat hunter. This makes him sound like a serious hunter who wants to learn.

Those are some bad receivers, good point.

Have to agree; I feel the goal was always to keep it .500 until Brady got back. They already achieved that; anything else is a bonus.

Since the DNC hack, that’s less of an achievement than it used to be, heh.
