In what way does calling for the removal of a logo you agree is racist cheapen or make more difficult the loss you are currently enduring?

DURRRR STICK TO SPORTS DURRRR

But Burneko’s hilarious burns on the failed presidential candidates are cool?

Poring over high school tape.

Is it just me or is the saga of Hingle McCringleberry becoming more like real life?

FYI, it was not the Irving, Texas, branch of BSA that was sued. It was the national organization that is headquartered in Irving.

These takes are getting progressively cold.

There is not “no liability” until the judgment you refer to is final. The judgment is not yet final!

What’s the point of going to law school if you can’t be a pompous dick about it??

You are confusing Williams’ chances at legal success for the actual ability he has to litigate them. Until the appellate court no longer has jurisdiction to consider the appeal, the dismissal of GM from the suit is NOT FINAL. Therefore, there is POTENTIAL LIABILITY. You are absolutely correct that there WILL be no…

It is nice that you have a definition of “liability” that differs from the legal one. I wish your characterization were possible and true! I can assure that however well-counseled Williams is, that has no bearing on whether he will appeal or not for any number of reasons, the least of which is he may be a proud man…

Like I explained to another commenter, if Mitchy takes an appeal against all defendants, which can’t happen until the district court finishes up with the defendant still in the case, GM is still part of the active litigation notwithstanding the dismissal. Thus, until judgment is rendered and the window for appeal…

Good question. If Mitchy appeals the summary judgment in favor of GM, which he most likely will, then it could still be considered ongoing litigation notwithstanding the dismissal, and thus a liability.

It’s a murky thing to get into what are the real motivations for corporate conduct when there’s no way we will ever know. If the liability shit was completely fabricated, I think we will know pretty quickly because there would be no point in deleting the others when posts like this replace them.

It’s actually against the Code of Conduct to tell you where I get paid to do law shit! Crazy right?

Again, if you take Univision’s statements at face value, this was not an editorial decision, which will be underscored by the fact that this post won’t be deleted, as it cannot be construed as a liability carrying over to the new ownership group! But I know law is hard.

Did you write this clearly uninformed post just to use the word “screeds?”

Your obits are the best things about this election. I have multiple times read them aloud in a performative manner to friends.

HamNo seems to post less on The Concourse than he did on Gawker. Is this a function of trying not to inundate Deadspin with too many non-sports posts or just an adjustment phase?
