Yeah, damn those whistleblowers for taking on personal risks in order to expose what they feel are massive problems in our society. Better hurry to slap this dude down before someone else gets the bright idea to point out how fucked our “corrections” system is. Yep, he sure is a dumb shit isn’t he?

Another 23-10 run and we’re right back in this, man

A month ago, Rick Hahn said the White Sox were “mired in mediocrity.” So to fix that, he traded a loogy for a fourth outfielder.

It’s kind of fitting that this controversy is really just an extension of the club pretending to care in the first place. ...Is there any world in which a team potentially poised to end the longest championship drought in their sport does not trade for a closer who throws 104 mph? The whole charade that they had to be…

You seem like a person who lacks empathy, and enjoys the suffering of others.

Drake Laroche is gone dude

So he did everything ‘wrong’, but the police DIDN’T execute him? Hmmmm...maybe if more encounters were leavened with police restraint, like this one, citizens wouldn't fear lethal consequences to what should be a routine interaction. Good on these police.

Grobe coaches college football. Until I see evidence otherwise, I’ll assume that his life is oriented around a presumption of the elevated importance of college football that is half of the root of the “culture problem” at Baylor. So he doesn’t think there was a culture problem, he just thinks things got out of hand…

The Onion continues to knock it out of the park:

Weber’s CFRel% (basically how well his team plays with him versus without him) has already been in decline for the last four seasons. I don’t know if having a marginally better PP quarterback makes up for his declining ability in other areas.

My guess is because Bergevin has no use for analytics. He just dumped a Norris-quality defenseman due to personality issues. They didn’t like him. That’s objectively stupid. Analytics, being a rational-based approach, has no place in such a dysfunctional front office run by idiots.

The firings will continue until morale improves.

The Tim Tebow/Jaden Smith race of 2044 is going to be a real turning point in America.

No. Under the federal rules, the government only has to identify the ill (cancer/kiddy porn) and a way to fight it (chemo/infecting computers). They do not have to identify individuals.

Lt. Bob Kroll, president of the Minneapolis Police Federation, the union that represents rank-and-file officers, praised them for quitting. “I commend them for it,” he said.

I’m always told what a terribly difficult job police have, what horrifying things they see every day. I’ve always believed it. Shouldn’t they, then, have thicker skin than being offended by a mild, muted criticism of police violence in general (not a criticism of these officers in particular, or even their department)…

Which he can afford. Then others will realize he’ll buy them at mark ups. Eventually he will control a huge chunk on MTG cards and he’ll set prices. Don’t sell him shit

Exactly. And team owners probably love the “separation of sports and politics” idiocy because they hope people don’t connect the dots between RAMS ARE BACK IN LA OMG and WTF INGLEWOOD IS ON THE HOOK FOR $500M+ AND KROENKE BOUGHT THE MAYOR.

How many times have sportscasters uttered a banal sentiment about “honoring our troops?” There’s a political calculus under that statement that never gets examined but that’s an endorsement of a political viewpoint. (And might even be a paid promotion.)
