Just so I've got this straight: in an article that denounces Rick Reilly for mis-representing a family member's position in print, your counter is to parade Reilly's other article sources in his defense? That seems rather gullible on your part.

This. Although I can't imagine how much more impossible the traffic would be on that stretch of road if you added a baseball stadium. For my money it's already the most consistently congested area in the bay.

Quit being daft. There weren't 35000 officers present. There were 6. Of those 6, all failed to do even a modicum of their collective duty. That's derelict. These cops are derelict criminals and you are defending the organization and procedures that allow them to abuse their positions. I've seen some iteration of this

You disagree that 6 out of 6 isn't significant? Because math is not an opinion... that's 100% of the officers in attendance that did nothing to curtail this. Paired with the 200 calls that went ignored and you have pretty significant negligence, objectively speaking. But you're gonna hang your hat on "they re-routed

No, but 6 out of 6 in attendance is a pretty significant outlier to just dismiss.

You know, every story like this brings one of you out to drop the soap for these assholes and tell us how we should feel. Well answer me this: there were 6 cops (at least) in attendance. So yeah, one shitty cop, no bigs. But how about 6 out of 6? How about 200 complaints and no action? What would have to happen for a

It is truly amazing to me how easily and quickly a collective lack of reading comprehension has turned what was plainly a metaphor addressing the viability of women as artists within an industry into an episode of "slut-shaming". It's almost as if these buzzwords being regularly batted around by the perpetually dumb

So a few thoughts:
1) obviously it's disingenuous to fault any pro sport for failing to maintain the quaint small town feel of minor league sports. I'm sure I could find you a sub-pro basketball game that would closer mimic the minor league baseball experience, but as it pertains to the article and your OP, it's

So do you just ignore all these same distractions when you are in the hallowed grounds of Bank One Fed Ex University of Phoenix Field? How do you ignore all the ads at the baseball stadium? What about when Mo comes out to Enter Sandman? Do you just plug your ears? The point I'm making is that you have somehow vilified

Nope. The 70s.
The explanation you are looking for is that you are a sappy, wet fucking noodle who writes dumb shit on the internet. Did you actually read it before you hit send, or were you just stoned on good shit and giving no fucks?
"The blue sky overhead and the crack of the bat"... holy shit that is some thick

Along the same lines, it seems teams who can afford to cultivate talent rather than rushing it onto the field also have a better success ratio. I'm with you but in a broader sense: situation is everything.

Someone should punch you in the dick for writing this.
