I don't need to know a drunk driver's life to know that the action is completely wrong.
Or a pedophile. Or an arsonist. Or a rapist. A crime is a crime is a crime no matter what your little story is.

Yay! We succeeded!

Yes I am.

For the love of God, would someone who supposedly cares for this woman step in and help her?

Lady, it's not JUST your life. When we send the message that this is ok (and it really, really isn't) then other guys will do the same. You can be cavalier about your own assault if you want, that's up to you, but if it happens in public then society has an obligation to say "no, this is unacceptable." Your husband…

But you see, that is part of the denial that the victim of domestic abuse typically exhibit.

"served well by the destruction of her husband's career"

I know it's not simple. Far from it. I was just commenting on the general situation.

cool victim blaming, dude.

This whole situation..

she is a victim and she is being forced to relive something pretty horrible at a massive public scale. i can understand why she'd be upset.

If your intentions were to hurt us, embarrass us, make us feel alone, take all happiness away, you've succeeded on so many levels.

*sigh*

ACK! Pull the sponsors!

Yeah, Quinn's done what he could, but our legislature is the issue here. It's run by entrenched crooks who stole money from the pension funds to pay for other things rather than raise the ridiculously low income tax rate here and then they tried to blame to workers who paid into that pension fund during their career…

So the graphics team is also well versed in risk analysis? I love this. Good eye! +1

I don't think Quinn is a crook, but he might not be competent. I'm not sure anyone could run that state unless they tear up the state constitution and rewrite it.

If his statements are out of touch and don't reflect the reality of NFL players and their lives today, maybe he should no longer be on television. Lord knows ESPN employs enough ex-football players who know better.

Sounds about right for Ditka. For non-Illinoisans, here's the terrible ad for Bruce Rauner (currently running for Governor here in IL so he can fulfill his magical promises of cutting taxes and increasing services for his cronies) with Ditka that ran during the Bears game. See if you can figure out which of these…

Oh no... now he only has enough money to live comfortably for the rest of his life and not enough to open a bunch of shitty steak houses
