This is predictably verbose and humorless. But it’s also, frankly, repulsive. The entire preamble treats players like property. Everything requires approvals upon approvals upon approvals. You can’t put on your socks without Goodell approving it. It’s not that absurd to make a direct leap from the NFL exercising…

Ok now my rage is a little lower.

You actually can “pinch off” the flow of energy (electrons aren’t actually flowing, but that doesn’t matter).

Clothespins on power cords is not only stupid, but potentially dangerous.

Imagine thinking a guy taking 30 seconds total to make 3(now 4) posts about this means they are “worked up”.

Dad did this in northern Ohio all the time. I wasn’t in the bar with him a lot (really) but anytime we would go fishing on the lake we would always pay the guy at the dock to clean them, go to the bar to wait, and he would order a Budweiser and a shot and would put a dash of salt in the beer.

Absolutely. I was a fringe D1 guy (I should have went smaller) and played in a few Mens leagues after college and it wasn’t pretty.

People don’t understand just how good even “bad” NBA players are.

It’s actually pretty nice now.

“Yeah, but he didn’t even hit that hard, and I didn’t want to fight back because I didn’t want to get kicked off the team.”

No I was glad I had that self control, but I still felt guilty afterwards for almost throwing her through a wall.

Agreed. It was way more honest than most.

I think the “thing” with wrestling is the guys involved would just beat the ass of the perpetrator.
