Nah, my personal opinion is that I think college sports is a bad thing, comprehensively. Not “college students participating in organized athletic competition,” but the institutionalization of it. If Ohio State admitted that they run a minor league football team, that would be a lot better, but it would be even better…

As I’ve said before, UNC is a real fucking school. It’s got a great academic reputation. The idea that it’s reasonable for them to undermine their principles in that sphere and to completely trash the credibility of one department (in a field that has had to fight pretty hard against skepticism to try and gain…

Lol that was still just as absurd, truthfulness aside.

I dunno, some women do but at least this one was on their actual performance not the imagination of it.

i love it so much.

This is one of the few times we disagree, my friend. I know a single Caleb and he is the unintentionally funniest person I know. He’s so incredibly sincere and kind and he does not understand any of my bitchy ways and he rolls with every single curve thrown at him. And his unbelievably hilarious moments come when he…

My son is Kaleb and he’s pretty awesome. (and he is Kaleb, not Caleb, because his dad is Kris and not Chris. The husband was insistent and I didn’t care, lol)

So is poetry not literature then either?

You’re thinking of Andrew Wiggins. Parker is from the South Side of Chicago.

Jabari is “physically gifted” and “naturally talented.” Jimmer is a “gym rat” and a “hustler” and “scrappy.”

Fredette has bounced around the NBA because nobody actually needs a shoot-first point guard with suspect defense. He may be a pro, but he’s as marginal of one as they come. And yes, he has a legion of LDS fanatics, which the Kings actually incorporated into their decision to draft him. (There are hella Mormons in…

I was thinking, based on his comments, he looks more like a guy explaining to Chris Hansen that the wine coolers and condoms in his grocery bag were purely coincidental and he was only there because his daughters friend “needed someone to talk to”

so you’re saying that a person can be physically, biologically and aesthetically ‘male’ but consider themselves psychologically female? What does it mean to be psychologically female?

My guesses are that: 1) Koeman was too impatient to get rid of Niasse; 2) Niasse did not want to play anywhere but in the EPL.

Koeman probably would’ve been willing to loan Niasse out if he really had to, but preferred to sell him given that there was interest from clubs in Spain and Germany. I think part of the…

They couldn’t sell a adebayor cause he wouldn’t agree to a new contract with any team that offered to buy him.

Sorry that Gizmodo is covering the people who can influence science policy including a tech wizkid and the next President of the United States.

lostEngineer, I have long valued your comments as being insightful and witty, but I have to disagree with you here: technology in all its forms, whether it be the internet’s role in The Arab Spring or the concept of Mutually Assured Destruction enabled by the technology of nuclear arms, is political fodder.
Gizmodo is…

Conservatism is one thing, and though I disagree with most of it’s tenets, it is a valid system of political beliefs. Xenophobia and bigotry, on the other hand, are vile personality flaws that have no place in a healthy society. Blanket prohibition of immigration rights to an entire socio-religious ethnic group…

I actually made the mistake of thinking that crawling, slimy fascist bigots were a minority
