I also come from the generation of players before planeswalkers made their appearance in the game and find the usual crop to be a little overpowered in the balance of the game.

I can’t be certain, but I think the point he was trying to make was that something like this could have happened in Year 1 of Brown’s career, and that scared off many teams from drafting him in the early rounds.

How is that different than any other job that drug tests? if I work for the government I can’t smoke weed either. 

For all the people asking “why is it Anti-Semitic to criticize Israel?”, I can help clear it up for you.

If you want to blame anyone for the current predicament. Blame the Justices, not the system. RBG could have retired 6 years ago during Obama’s presidency, and let him appoint her successor. But she liked being relevant and therefore chose to stay on the court even though she’s one strong gust of wind away from being…

Well if you look at the Gurley contract for a comparison, he got 58mil/4years, so about 14mil per year. Gurley is 2 years younger with way fewer carries and injury history, and Bell is arguably a little better. So 14mil seems pretty spot on for Bell.

That’s mostly true but I’ll quibble on your point about Donald and Cooks.

In my opinion QBs get paid more for 2 reasons:

As opposed to you saying “I want mine, so f—k you”?

Idk about you, but I’d rather spend $100/month for the coverage I get from my employer plan that has great coverage and low copay and deductible than have my taxes go up astronomically to join a plan where you can never be sure what quality of care you’re getting.

Unpopular opinion here- but offsetting language should be standard in these contracts. It’s a common legal understanding that a party should seek to mitigate their damages when economic losses are incurred, and the damaged party generally can’t profit more than their expected damages. So if the Jets or any team cut a…

I think the millions of Americans who currently receive insurance through their employer and pay decent rates might care when then taxes go up 15% to pay for a healthcare plan they don’t intend to use. 

It’s patently unfair to blame the U.S. for the instability in the Middle East. Perhaps you are unaware that the European nations you hold as the shining examples of human rights, had control over the Middle East after WWI and WWII and made a very nice mess of it themselves. Don’t even get me started on how badly they…

They are scared. But not because she is a young minority woman from the opposing party. They are scared because she represents a growing percentage of voters that base their decisions on buzzwords and memes and don’t truly understand what it is they are arguing for, or how little sense some of their arguments make.

You could make that argument about every single position except maybe quarterback. You can always find a player to give you 85% of the production for a lot less money, but sometimes teams bite the bullet to have one of the top 5 players at their position, even if it means paying a lot more. This really comes down to…

They would have the same issue giving up their seat to a poor white person. This is not about who is joining the classroom as much as it is about who is getting kicked out.

Leaving aside the argument over who is really rich enough to afford the tax as proposed (in my opinion if you want to tax the rich, go after the 10 mil+ real estate market that is booming in NYC). The bigger issue is that 800 million is not even close to the amount needed to fix the subway, and then using 30% of that…

84 gallons out of how many? If it transported 500 gallons and leaked 84 that’s a problem. If it transported 5,000 gallons and leaked 84 that’s a pretty low margin of error.

Judge Judy is not a real small claims court, she is an arbitrator playing a judge for TV, which means she does not need to follow the actual law to the letter and can do what she thinks is fair or makes sense. You also need to realize that much of the footage of the case is cut, where she might explain her position…

The “most bucks” would have been staying in OKC with the Thunder. People are upset because he left that team for the one that beat him in the playoffs, and for what people consider to be forming a super team with no hope of actual competition. Its the old argument that the greatest superstars lead teams and mediocre…
