I love everything I’ve seen of Yang’s games, but I feel like, if your approach is basically to assume that the market is overrun with “gross people,” and this informs how you design your games (an attempt to provoke this assumed potential end user), it shouldn’t be any great surprise when takes like those of…

The call was fine, though I would have also been fine with a regular “let them play” foul. He probably could have gotten away with just a push, but he also tripped him as well.

Looking at the replay I think it’s the right call, even though they didn’t explain it well. He didn’t sell the fall, he got tripped. If you push AND trip the guy I think you earn the flagrant.

Shove from behind is specified in the flagrant 1 rule. Excessive contact is too. Hard to overlook a shove from behind with no play on the ball + tripping. Barford didn’t stumble. He was tripped. One or the other, they call a regular foul. With both of them, can’t overlook it.

I have no problem with that being called a flagrant. He did not go for the ball and he put the guy on the ground, even if incidental, could have harmed the guy. Yes, “touch” a player, not push him to the ground.

Yeah he also very clearly trips the dude as well, you cant push and trip someone at the same time mid-sprint (although the trip was un-intentional Im sure)

That dude didn’t ‘sell it’. Look at what happens to his left foot...

Dishonest clickbait headline.

still scratching my head at how people can identify as a different gender but can not identify as a different race.

That’s cute and all but he traveled.

Don’t burn yourself on that take.

I ref squirt and peewee leagues. ($36 per game). Even 10-year-old defensemen get salty. I gave a misconduct to a kid for calling me a “fucking asshole” when I caught him buttending an opponent on a faceoff. Since these kids can’t and shouldn’t drop the gloves, you have to drop the hammer. I gave him a major penalty…

I think we must be consistent in our positions though. I screamed as loudly as I could on the internet whenever some new bullshit report came out about HRC. I cannot now, in good conscience, condone the spreading of what is likely a made up story that the intelligence community briefed the president and the…

Thankfully almost every other elector will represent his or her state’s wishes, but you don’t have to stretch your imagination at all to see how the precedent of electors voting for whomever they feel like could one day be wielded against a (Democratic) president-elect who poses no imminent danger to the country. In…

I think the image has some validity to it. You gave an example of a refrigerator, but that didn’t create the kind of change we are seeing with technology today. Or perhaps more correctly, it created as much or more change but didn’t require as much effort to adapt to the change.

I think that if you replaced ‘properly adapt’ with ‘responsibly adapt’ there might be an argument.

This is a distraction.

but noteworthy nonetheless.

Dangit people. There's only one rule when teaching someone how to drive a stick. LEAVE THE GAS PEDAL OUT OF IT! If they can learn to get the car rolling with no gas, and not kill it, they've mastered using the clutch. Only after that introduce the gas pedal. It's one less pedal to try and juggle. Easy peasy lemon…
