Maybe I'm missing something. Why is SWAGG NFL themed? Simply because it's on a Packers license plate?

Someone above cites a poll giving Obama +7 edge BEFORE his DNC speech that really catapulted him onto the national stage. And at that point Obama's name recognition was probably half of Ditka's, and people of Illinois had an idealized version of him in their heads. Once he opened up his mouth on the actual issues he…

As a Giants fan and a Rick's patron on more than one occasion, I certainly know where I will be watching football next Sunday.

Phones should be designed to give the user an electric shock if they start recording video in portrait mode.

I agree there are some people who are militant about The Wire being the best show ever. I believe The Wire is the best show I've ever seen, but I'm not militant about it, if you think something else is the best show ever, as long as it's not John from Cincinnati, I'll respect your opinion. But I think that…

I've always loved Fred Couples, and I hope to God this is a true story.
