Who the hell is giving the homeless folding money? Bills are in my wallet and I am damn sure not pulling my wallet out in front of some deranged bum. If I am feeling especially charitable (I am not) maybe he gets the loose change in my pocket if I have some. More likely he gets nothing.

The question was faulty in that what gunshot to the kneecap results in no permanent damage? That shit cripples you... isn’t that why mobsters do it?

...any car that looks like a police car but is NOT a police car should be banned from the fucking road

We go on a lot of amusement-park-centric trips because we are philistines terrified of actual culture. The first couple times we went to Disney World my daughter was small and it was better for everyone to push her in a stroller, for the reasons you cited. Yeah, it was exhausting for me as the pusher, but it extended…

It’s not disasters that get you renewal, it’s cities that aren’t run as disasters.

So the only options are paying skateboarders $10 an hour to teach, or unionized teachers making six figures with platinum-plated benefits for their part-time jobs, who are accountable to no one, resist all change, and can never be fired?

Entire charter networks have been built on a model of driving out the lowest performing students

Maybe people are tired of seeing those trillions pissed away and want to try something different.

Indeed, we should just get a wider hose through which to blast ever-more taxpayer dollars directly into the failing public schools and their rapacious union thugs.

Yeah, I think the difference is I’m just not that big an NFL fan anymore. One of our early league members quit because he said he couldn’t take watching games needing an Eagle or Cowboy to do well, or even worse, having to root against the Giants. Me, I don’t care. The Cowboys could win the next three SBs if I could…

Mirth, an excuse to get together to drink, and something to talk about at weddings and funerals (much to our wives’ chagrin).

We didn’t want to do a full keeper league because that might get stale, but we wanted to add something to mix it up, so we came up with the Franchise Player. Each team designates ONE player (or Defense) as his FP, who he can keep as long as he wants. Players are only franchise-eligible if they were drafted after the…

To be honest, I’d rather be a FF player and not give a shit about what is actually happening in the NFL. I have a very mild rooting interest in the team I grew up following but seeing as how every year they either beat the Pats in the SB or miss the playoffs, I don’t really care that much. They win, yay. They lose,…

We started our league in 1989 and most of the charter members are still in it. We all take it seriously (~$1000 for first place will do that) but yeah, we’re not dicks about it. We don’t have guys badgering the commissioner about stuff, or colluding, or stuff like that, which I guess is less hardcore serious than just…

There are these people called “lawyers”. Look them up in the phone book, or the google. They will listen to your stories, then make your tormentors pay you lots of money at little or no cost to you.

Because she’s probably just as horrible to him. If he’s still interested in boning her, he knows if he criticizes her in any way he gets put on ice. Even if he’s not (and from the sounds of it, probably not) he knows that if he disobeys her, she hires a lawyer, steals his house, gets more than half his money, and…

Nah... we did a baseball league “just for fun” one year and since there was no money involved, nobody gave a shit and I don’t think a single person was paying attention by the end of the season.

Titans or Texans. Or are they the same team? I always forget.

Chris Berman makes everything exponentially more terrible. When will he just go away already?

If Eli and the Giants don’t step it up, he will be on the outside looking in. Just because you won two SBs doesn’t mean you get into Canton.
