It's sad when you someone whines that they don't understand calculus when all they've been subjected to is simple arithmetic. But it's OK, it's our fault that you haven't gotten there yet. Or maybe you're just not apt enough to understand calc. But I'm just happy you know the term "ad hominem." Focus on that instead…

And I always laugh at people who go into English class without doing the reading assignment and then vomit up BS when the teacher asks a question. When you're a stubborn shut-in reject without grasp of how other people see the world it's easy to have little understanding of these concepts. Go back to your mommy's…

Read a book, man. You have Google. Use it. Just the history of the world when one group of people does crappy stuff to another, it's the group with the upper hand who can make decisions to change behaviors that make a difference. The "women or blacks" line is funny...you really haven't given much thought to these…

Hey, but someone has to take the lead on that. And someone has to the most influence on these things. Consider it your white man's burden, your precious. Here's a spankerchief for your tears.

Dude. Blackhawks twice in four years. Bulls 6 times. Sox in 2005. We're not Cleveland. And that's not a knock on Cleveland, it's just those fans have gone through Hell and their concerns are super valid. Let's not turn into whiny Red Sox fans (curses and all). We'll be OK, and hopefully the MRI gives Rose some good…

But you'd really need a next gen Game Genie to unlock the magic.

Reading is fundamental.

I'd rather save the scorn for the Irish! NIU is the closest thing football has to a Cinderella when they're offered up as sacrificial lambs to their bowl opponent. If that kind of fun works for the NCAA basketball tourney, why can't we hope for the best here?

Doesn't stop Notre Dame, so why knock the Huskies?

Hibbert had a pretty forgettable regular season last year. Also PER overrates players who don't play big minutes and penalizes the players who are on the floor tons (Luol Deng, etc). PER is a useful tool, but is far from the end all be all. I hate pretty much all advanced metrics that try to measure defensive value.…

Dude. You totally missed the joke chance here. It wasn't to bang the "white" drum, which I'm not, but whatever. The joke here was to continue to call me whiny. Did you fail your class at Troll 101?

Not white. Sorry, doesn't fit into your narrative of excuses to be racist. You are racist, aren't you? Or would that make me a jerk for jumping to conclusions?

The DC one isn't racist enough to be recognizable.

Make up your mind, you douchebags. I thought Chicago was so crime ridden that bullets flew everywhere, not just one part of town, like the South Side where the Sox play, where many people don't visit because they're too scared...for whatever reason...I need your flimsy BS to at least be consistent.

Soaring with Iron Man is one of the best parts of the game. It's very distracting when I just want to plow through the story mode, but it's a welcome distraction. Also, this game look fantastic. It's an art style that will draw in non gamers and gamers alike. They pretty much hit the sweetspot, again.

So this is what the war on (Rakeem) Christmas looks like.

Abe Frohman will always be our king. Don't you ever forget that.

LAUNDRY. This thing kicks absolutely ass while doing laundry. Yeah, I'm folding my pants and putting them away: "NEXT EPISODE, bitches," I yell out, and then my screen is populated with the next exciting installment of Luther. Or maybe it's Mad Men. Or maybe it's Voltron: Defender of the Universe. My hands can't be…

Yeah, but the Wii couldn't do the same stuff the 360 and PS3 could, so it wasn't an even playing field for developers. All it will take is one developer to try something and be successful with the Kinect, and we'll see the floodgates open.
