“Go Knicks Go! You traded away everyone on your team with some semblance of basketball talent in order to create a bunch of cap space to go bonkers in free agency!!”

“Go Knicks Go! You didn’t sign any of the players you were targeting in free agency!! #SaveDatMoney!!!”

That’s citing a poll from May 2008, but guess what? No one votes in May. Look at actual post-election polling.

Quit trying to excuse yourself for voting for Jill Stein. It’s embarrassing. 

If the netting is for fan safety, why should it end at the foul poles? If a typical line drive foul ball comes into the stands in hot corner at 100 mph, that means a line drive homer is entering the stands at somewhere around 90 mph. Do we not care about the fans sitting in the outfield?

I hope someone other than this Bernie-Or-Bust sycophant (“also my opinions aren’t related to the fact that the Sanders campaign gave my wife a few million dollars”) does the debate tonight.

I worry that the media is going to re-hash that “scandal” every day of the campaign because it’s the one bad thing she’s done, just like they re-hashed “but her emails” every time some new assault or grift from Trump’s past was revealed in 2016.

Gabbard botched the homophobia question badly, imo. “I was raised in a socially conservative household” is no excuse to support conversion therapy when you’re 33 years old (and honestly she probably only changed her position because she wanted to run for federal office as a Democrat). There’s even homophobic, conservat…

The amazing lack of self awareness to accuse someone else of “coming off a little whiny” after making these 3 comments. 

I hate how some lefties treat the Republicans as some kind of figment or boogeyman invented by Democrats and not as a major political party that currently wields a lot of power. 

The anthem sucks too. Have you ever heard of anyone saying “Pass me the AUX cord, I wanna play the anthem” on a road trip? 

I’ve been to well over 100 live sporting events in my lifetime and I’ve never once sung along with the national anthem. Not as a form of protest or anything, just that I didn’t know that was a thing. I was taught to stand there with my hands folded behind my back, but somewhere along the line it seems like everyone…

Given how right wing boycotts usually work, there will be tons of people who go to the restaurant, buy the most expensive dish on the menu, liveblog themselves spitting in it, eat the food, then pay and leave.

Warren’s plan is also paid for by a tax on wealth over $50MM rather than by a tax on 401k’s.

There’s more to it than just people who didn’t want to take on loans. There’s millions of kids who get/got a low-quality K-12 education that doesn’t/didn’t adequately prepare them for college through no fault of their own, so they cannot reasonably go to college. Making college free won’t all of a sudden get every…

I agree. This response is essentially the official Democratic Party stance on Iran. A few days ago Biden even used a similar analogy to the “bin full of paper” one Bernie used here. 

It’s really telling, imo, that this line of reasoning is only used for sexual assaults or hate crimes. No one has ever said “False murder accusations diminish the severity of real murder” or “False robbery accusations diminish the severity of real robbery”.

I just looked them up on Wikipedia, and wow. UConn was the 9 seed in the Big East tournament and went .500 in regular season conference play, including losing 7 of their last 11 regular season games. Even playing in a stacked conference and knowing in hindsight that they won it all, it still feels like they were…

Hopefully for his sake some of them realize that he’s probably going to get a non-guaranteed $80k/yr two way contract.

The Pistons told the Pelicans who to draft. The NBA isn’t like the NFL where you can swap the actual picks on draft night. The player to be drafted is negotiated before the pick is made.

Good thing the Brewers sent down Keston Hiura to make room for him, right? 

I don’t see any body shaming in these threads. Plenty of people making fun of her clothes, but I don’t think “fashion shaming” is really a thing.
