Don't worry, he'll do something profoundly dirtbaggy soon, probably before the week is out.

And to your second point, I think it’s tremendously important to help adolescents realize their potential. Most teachers not only fail to do that, but actively negate creativity, awareness, and critical thinking.

Like most successful people I know, I am where I am in spite, not because, of the vast majority of teachers I had growing up.

Those who can, do. Those who can’t, teach.

Is it redemption, though? I thoroughly enjoyed El Camino, but I didn’t see it as a redemption story so much as the conclusion of the escape of Breaking Bad’s most sympathetic character. Nothing Jesse does really “redeems” him, he just sort of gets away, and gets a little revenge along the way.

If the Dolphins go 0-16, they’ll still be regarded as no worse than the 3rd-worst team of all time, simply because they tanked. They aren’t trying to be good, so they don’t get extra credit for being historically bad because they couldn’t not be. (Note: all that changes if somehow they actually play Alabama and the…

You know how passionate people get about instant replay? I’m that way about in-helmet headsets. I don’t even like plays being signaled in from the sidelines. And don’t get me started on Chip Kelly’s rebuses.

Are the folks at Deadspin aware of this? I feel like this is something they would like to know about.

Dude, don’t kink-shame.

I’ve been watching this for like three minutes and I laugh every single time.

Sincere question: Did you say anything like, “Excuse me, sorry, just need to grab my bag,” and then get snarked at? Or did you just swim upstream? Because that makes ALL the difference in who’s right and who’s wrong here.

I took the Saints in my knockout pool this week. I saw they’re playing the Jaguars and, even though they’re a 1.5 point dog, I figured this was as much of a can’t miss as anybody who’s left for me to pick. Am I a putz? (I mean for that specifically, not in general. I know I am in general.)

No I did not. I fucking did not. Find where I did. You can't. Because I fucking didn't.

*sigh*

Oh no doubt. Nixon begat Reagan, who begat Bush the Elder, who begat Bush the Lesser, who begat Trump, who won’t beget anyone because there’s not going to be a fucking country left.

I got flamed to hell and back on Splinter for saying this, but I’ll say it here too, because what the hell. George W. Bush was a profoundly awful president, both in terms of domestic and foreign policy. He was, without question, a criminal of great magnitude. He was not, however, aspiring to become the dictator of a…

And remember, this coming from a guy who went to jail for assault. Yeah, only for one day, but still.

I love hockey, but anyone not on the Buffalo Sabres can die in a car fire, except PK Subban. That dude is awesome. Historically, that has also applied to Steve Yzerman, Mark Messier, and a handful of others.

Having seen the inner workings of more than one school board, I have observed that schools routinely “fire” teachers by getting them to resign. The reason is very simple: if a teacher resigns, the district doesn't have to deal with the union, especially if the district accepts the resignation "with regret" (and a cozy…
