To be fair, he's pretty conflicted about the whole thing and calls it "the least presidential thing I do." The obvious goal is to destroy the building and the intelligence it contains (computers, files, etc.) while killing as few people as possible. But you're right that it seems a bit silly to be fine with killing…

Shepherd bombs Libya (in retaliation for their bombing of the CSTAD installation), not Iran. /nerd

Mia Love: the latest Tea Party candidate whose name sounds suspiciously fake.

If you actually follow Scottish football, Celtic have won 43 league championships including seven just since 2000. Yeah, what would that be like following a team that doesn't win all the time?

Maybe that would have helped A-Rod more had it been written on a sheet of paper and handed to him by Mr. Bergstrom.

Okay, yes, it's not about "politeness" as such. But what I meant was that when you visit a mosque and take off your shoes, that's honoring the wishes of the religion you're visiting with; when you visit a Catholic church and take communion despite not being Catholic, that's NOT honoring the wishes of the religion…

The question wasn't whether he should be expected to know. The question was which was more offensive. Also, he could probably have, you know, ASKED HIS FUCKING GIRLFRIEND WHAT TO DO.

Re: Stumped, this isn't like taking your shoes off in a mosque to be polite. From a Catholic rules standpoint, non-Catholics shouldn't be taking the Eucharist at all. It's not a matter of "being polite." You don't just go up and take communion. If he felt too awkward about sitting down, you can go up with your…

Don't worry, he won't.

It probably also helps Granderson's case that the Yankees don't have an obvious backup CF on the roster, whereas they have multiple bench guys who can play third.

I don't think anyone was saying that the WORST thing about the call was how late it was, except insofar as the lateness of it implied that it was being used to bail out the defense (which is not why the infield fly rule exists). It's true that IF the infield fly rule were going to be called and the play finish as it…

The call did not "help the Braves." I find this argument baffling. Baseball is a game of outs, and the Braves were rapidly running out of them - they only had five outs left at the time. Men on second and third with two outs is NOT a better situation than first and second with one out much less bases loaded, one…

The Cardinals didn't win their division either and were much further from doing so. I'm all for the wild card team being punished for not winning their division but this isn't the way to do it.

The difference is that at least Santo is just the color guy. Hawk is the PxP man, which makes it more ridiculous. That said, I'm a Cubs fan and I still had a hard time listening to Santo.

This is a good point, actually. If the kneel down is a real play, it seems ridiculous to call teams out for, you know, treating it as such. And as the Giants themselves can tell you, there is nothing automatic about the kneel down.

It's kind of like the 1990s Angels in the Outfield remake. Sure, it's fine for God to help the team win (by cheating, really)... until they get to the final game, and THEN he steps aside, because sorry, you gotta do this by yourself. Why was it okay for the Angels to have illicit supernatural help before but…

So with the whole "super drug" thing, it sounds like this is a combined sequel to both the Bourne movies and Limitless. No Bradley Cooper cameo?

Clearly not serious. But there is also a camera on the right, above the guy in question, seemingly pointed directly at her ass.

The Paterno family won't rest until the whole truth comes out, so long as that truth matches exactly what they already believe. Wait, hold on, there's a little more space dust on this report...

I can't decide whether "Anderson Cooper is gay" or "Jeffrey Maier is a total douche" is the bigger news of the day.
