Remember 1999, when A-Rod had been injured and was kept off the All-Star team due to low numbers (he ended up hitting 42 hrs and OPSing .949 in 129 games that year and somehow finished 15th in MVP voting) because they just had to have space for Nomar and Omar and Jeter, despite plainly being better in basically every…

The shittiest thing is that it can be hard to speak to the right people even when those in positions of power (judges, attorneys, etc) are aware of the ongoing misjustice.

That people have enough interest to tell the story isn’t proof in and of itself?

You might not be aware but Caldwell-Pope is black.

There’s no public interest in this, however. The purpose of the page is to confirm the person is in the correct location. Given that he’s on live TV, a page during that time wouldn’t serve any interest.

I mean, we have always had Cash Bail.

I’m just gonna go ahead and say that I have high confidence that ONE HUNDRED PERCENT of “allowing a person to operate his vehicle under the influence” convictees are black. Like ain’t that some made up shit? It’s not even the police’s job to catch criminals anymore, when they can just create criminals out of people…

The league hates the Seahawks, I suspect, for not discouraging their players from kneeling or talking about racial issues.

It’s because this dude has his lifespan meaningfully shortened in a normal, every day NFL play - not an egregious cheap shot, not a terrible fluke like that dude who’s leg basically fell off - but an every-single-down play. If you can have your career and basically your life cut short by that, man, a lot of parents of…

We got a real Dumas on our hands...

after all that work to get skinny.

One issue: “consumers who just want to wear plain sweaters and quietly fashionable jeans like the rest of the world” don’t need fashion start-ups.

Everybody sucks at plus size.

This puts me into a weird spot, but... well, firstly, there really can’t be any doubt that Nasser is guilty on all counts at this point.

I mean, you *were* overqualified. Folks like who are taking whatever job they can get while biding their time for their real career generally make terrible hires. They’re less invested and significantly more likely to leave without notice. Those that do stick around (not speaking of holiday gift-wrapping, but lets say…

Though this might seem cause for screeching alarm, let’s all take a collective breath.

Here’s a quote from Teddy Atlas that might explain it (Teddy Atlas is a boxing analyst and was a trainer for Mike Tyson in the 80s).

For the same reason’s no one’s mad at the dozens of victims who haven’t spoken up: They have careers and families to take care of, they have enough stress as it is without having to deal with without participating in a legal course of action against your boss.

FYI, dozens of feet wash up on eastern pacific shores each year. Basically, if you die in the pacific and your shoe floats, your foot will eventually wash up on a beach in Washington, or California, or Nicarague, or Chile, etc.

Sports as moderated warfare isn’t exactly a new idea...
