Hockey only seats 20k and not many people are flying from other cities to see Wednesday night hockey game in Vegas. But I think 1/2 is an underestimate for football — Sunday games with major city opponents will be 75% fans of that team who structured their Vegas weekend around the game.

This is just lawyers for the school doing their due diligence. Their first step was always going to be an attempt to get a dismissal.

What are children for, if not to vicariously live through and shamelessly profit off of?

They can “call in” a loan if someone is behind on payments, but I don’t _think_ banks/debt holders would do it if the customer is current.

I don’t disagree in concept but in this particular instance... people can afford cars just fine. More specifically, the people in this spot can afford cars just fine, just not the cars they want with the features they want.

Dear Oakland,

I’ve spent the last few years rationalizing how much I loathed the NFL with how I’ve loved the Raiders since I was a kid (I was and still am a glutton for punishment). It’s been hard to see my little son climb up on the couch to watch a gam with me while knowing that I would never, ever let him play football.

If you love dumpster fires this should be good. In NFL players you have a group that, in general:

Nobody is asking the most important question here:
Will sports books in Vegas be able to show all of NFL games on their TVs when the Raiders are playing?

Gruden’s on ESPN sucking Goodell’s cock right now. Ultra fuck Jon Gruden. True fans will stick with them? Fuck you, Jon. Shove a flaming hot metal dildo up your ass and die.

Keeping your neck up to see would be difficult and tiring at normal speeds at impossible at track speeds. The position obviously offers no way to secure and support the head, neck, and back for crash protection. It’s utterly stupid and dangerous, and no I would not drive it.

People hate Jason Schreier’s one weird headline, you won’t believe what he did next.

Who knew Joffrey would be upset so easily?

I hear you. A family member of mine died in a car accident and I have zero interest in visiting the spot where it happened. If I need a place to reflect on it, we own the cemetery plot.

My hunch, based on being a worker bee inside of a big company, is that there’s likely someone, a real person, maybe also a parent, who argued on behalf of an otherwise unorthodox approach. In the end big companies are still full of human beings and like many of us might have, saw something personal in this memorial.…

I mean, I had the same reaction. So probably

I could be all cynical and suggest that Chevron recognised the memorial was actively cared for for over a decade, recognised the risk to their public profile of demolishing it (even when they didn’t know the carer) substantially outweighed the cost of preparing a permanent alternative AND recognised the potential…

Why NADA trade-in value and not private party sale value?

Hmm... my wife keeps cars, driving the crap out of them, so there aren’t that many, leaving us with:

“Sporty” exists to make people feel better about their beige purchases.

I’m not buying an econo box, I’m buying an econobox with sporty accents that shows everyone that I wish I could afford a performance vehicle.
