These people are all Auburn/SEC fans feeling shitty for losing so they have to be shitty to someone else to deflect the pain.

I'm white as fuck. After reading the headline & some of the comments, I was half-expecting Winston to be one of these athletes who can't string together enough words to make a fucking coherent sentence (and they do exist) but there was nothing unusual or wrong about his post-game interview. He came off as an aware,…

Me thinks somebody's non-participating QB Mom protests too much!

Maybe it's because I'm not white enough, but I don't see what was so unusual about Jameis' post-game interview.

So what the article is really trying to point out is the massive quantities of orphans that watch the NFL could be affected negatively by these players and coaches, because they must be parent-less to be drawing all of their views on the world from distant athletes

What can children who watch the game and idolize its players learn from that?

Think of the children watching a sport where grown men beat the hell out of each other and get debilitating brains diseases!

We should neither discount his denial nor double-check it.

He was obviously misquoted from the press conference after Sunday's game: "I'm not Jay. I really like winnin'."

There's Sum Ting Wong with the clips they chose to omit ...

The Texans tree wouldn't look so sad if it had some gifts under it. Unfortunately Matt Schaub already handed all of them out to the rest of the league.

That's why it must be supplemented with other real self-care. The pills never really worked for me, even when my mother told me that I just had to keep taking them. They made me sick and didn't make me feel like living either. What has worked for me is knowing what my symptoms are, like insomnia, skipping meals, and…

Ned was a friend of mine. Not a close friend, but very much more than just an acquaintance. I first met him through a mutual friend around 2005 in NYC, and knew immediately (like instantly, no exaggeration) that he was one of the most genuine, good-hearted people I'd ever encountered. He just radiated that kind of…

As a Black woman I don't find this funny. Comedians do not always get a free pass.

The fat jokes were a terrible idea. The Jewish jokes were...I get uncomfortable with Jewish jokes in front of a widespread audience, because a lot of people fail to get the context, but Silverman and Franco are both Jewish. It's an in-group joke. It wouldn't mean the same thing if someone who was not Jewish told the…

Context is everything.

When Sarah Silverman tells this sort of joke, though, it's to laugh AT racism. At least, when she does it well. See Lindy's point about how you can tell rape jokes, but they're not funny if the joke's on the victim, only if it's on the rapist.
