Take a look at the comments. The  amount of rationalizing will make your head spin.

I was just wondering what exactly the location has to do with anything.

Oooh I like this theory. Ronnie Brown wildcat was a very fun if short lived era in the NFL.

That’s what struck me about the entire podcast. He literally can’t take responsibility for his decision making. He uses language like “I was in a bad place” or he makes excuses like he said he didn’t know the lady he hit was pregnant. As if running off after totally smoking her car is suddenly somehow acceptable if…

Some people see the location and the shooter’s name and jump to conclusions. Pretty typical really.

Well if they can explain it as self defense... they don’t charge him. Self defense refers to the action of defending himself physically not the action of defending himself in court.

Ya this season was excellent. So many memorable and exciting races. If you have any inclination to go back and watch the whole series I highly recommend watching moto2 as well. Every single race was ultra competitive and the championship was very well contested throughout. Here’s a website where you can do that if…

Agreed. I’m really hoping that the new tire profile combined with aero rules will have an effect similar to the new electronics rules in MotoGP this previous season. There’s almost no chance of F1 becomming as competitive among the top 4 teams as MotoGP was this year but I expect (hope) it to at least head in that…

Tires and big aero changes. But I think 5 seconds is pretty optimistic. I have heard 3 seconds as an estimate from a number of places and some of the more technical folks out there seem to think that too is a bit optimistic.

There is no surpassing Boston fans. There is only obtaining the same level. And even then there is no way to totally replicate how shitty they are. One can only strive to approximate it. Warriors fans are trying their hardest but this is one of those things that even innovative techies and highly educated free…

The idea of having one official who looks at QB hits seems good to me. Especially when you consider that last night the game ended with a no-doubt missed call. On a QB hit in the head. And we’ve witnessed certain high profile QBs getting hit illegally and not getting a flag on multiple other games this season. We can…

It’s called a fallacy when either it’s used in an illogical way or when someone wants a cheap way to negate another person’s argument with no logical demonstration of their own. In this case it is the latter. The comment calling it a slippery slope demonstrates that the expected final outcome (chaos) is reasonably…

Not sure if you realize this but you’ve pointed us to a walking-on-cars-in-heels fetish thing on youtube. At least those of us deranged enough to watch this video. It would appear that this is A Thing. Who knew?

This is objectively the best one available:

I prefer correlation does not imply causation. Or if we want to get fancy cum hoc ergo propter hoc. The two events are related. They happen simultaneously (winning the game happens as you and your opponent accumulate rushing attempts with both events beginning and ending at the same time). But we can’t prove that one…

Each team has 8 home games except the ones who play in London. However the population that enjoys watching football is far more large than the population that enjoys watching motorsports. There are no truly direct comparisons that I can think of. I would say world cup but that’s once every 4 years.

No it’s not. It is significantly more expensive to attend an F1 race. The USGP tickets are $100 bucks for general admission. General admission to an NFL game (standing room only) at Cowboys stadium is $25. To get a seat the minimum cost (face value) is over $160 for the GP. For a football game it’s about half of that.…

The machine knows

Indeed the team has taken on the behavior of their head coach and their best player. Chris Paul has always been a whiner too and between him and Rivers it has just gotten totally out of control. The rest of the team does it too. They’re like the Toronto Blue Jays of the NBA. When they experience (or perceive) the…

Okay negative nancy. Then when buying a car stay away from Audio for all of the practical reasons: they’re too expensive, maintenance is incredibly expensive and burdensome, build quality is poor compared to every single car that competes with Audi’s lineup and reliability is pretty poor as well. Oh ya and the parent…
