I once walked into a good bagel place in NYC and ordered something - I honestly don’t remember what it was but it was an unusual combination i had a craving for like a pregnant woman - and all 3 of the guys working all stopped what they were doing in silent thought for a second and then one of them said “Damn...that…

Sure sounds like you guys would rather just watch rugby. How about we give the kicker a small wound ball and have him throw it at the returner and then we give the returner a wooden stick and if he can hit the ball into the stands before the kicking team can catch it that’s 2 points? Also the games should be played in…

I understand attempts at creating a helmet rule that have the fleeting hope of incentivizing coaches to train new tackling techniques that could mitigate injury, but you can’t coach a pass rusher out of doing this. Your average NFL QB is a 6'3" 220 pound dude who doesn’t fall down when you blow on him. This has no…

In case you were wondering, Steelers Twitter is taking this with all the grace and maturity you would expect.

Seriously this guy caused so much harm to so many people I don’t understand why we’re even talking about him in a positive light. Every “compassionate conservative” from Reagan on down can point to one initiative they took that helped one poor brown person. Meanwhile they fought for a ridiculous socioeconomic system…

I don’t necessarily disagree with you. I think she would have won in a landslide in 2016. Trump got fewer votes than Mitt Romney and Warren could have easily energized all of the Bernie supporters that couldn’t bring themselves to vote for Hillary. To me that is still the path to victory in 2020 - forget wooing…

Fuck it, I’m on the bandwagon. I’ve needed a team to follow since I swore off the Bengals until after Marvin Lewis is fired or the heat death of the universe, whichever comes first, and the Rams are stacked and fun as hell to watch. I spend a good amount of time in LA to boot so cheap tickets are appealing. Put down a…

Ocasio-Cortez have a great interview on Crooked recently where they asked her the significance of labeling herself as a socialist and she gave a fantastic answer that amounted to “if you believe in these widely held progressive policies than it doesn’t matter what you call yourself” and that is exactly where…

Look, I am not unsympathetic to this line of argument. But are we really, in the darkest days of the modern republic, already painting progressive-darling-of-2016 as the new “boring centrist *cough*Hillary*cough*” of the 2020 cycle? We should all be so blessed to have a President Elizabeth Warren in 2020 even if it…

I’m not suggesting it would make any difference with his base, but he still hasn’t admitted to it in public and here we are with him admitting to paying the hush money and every journalist is all “Bu...wha....um....so about these campaign finance laws.” YOU GUYS FORGOT A STEP.

“Did the President cheat on the First Lady with an adult film actress?”

So is it now publicly accepted fact even in Trumpworld that he fucked at least one porn star while married to his current wife? When did we get to THAT Rubicon and why has he not been asked one single question about it?

The thing that baffles me is he is clearly constantly lying to HIS OWN LAWYERS. If they knew the details he just said with his own mouth on television they would have explained to him months ago it was still a crime and told him to shut up about it. But they clearly did not know. That’s like Doing Crimes 101 shit…

So clearly the Republicans in Congress aren’t going to do anything about this. Dems aren’t winning the House and 2/3 of the Senate this year so realistically there are no ramifications even if Trump is found to be guilty. So the question is, when a new president is elected in either 2020 or 2024 and Trump is no longer…

And apparently at least a few professional football players think differently so, you know, opinions and assholes.

Then, like, 11 false start penalties on every play?

I’m just telling you why the defensive players are pissed off. You can disagree that it should be a penalty, but the guys taking these hits are saying they’re bad and so, like, blogs. Some players take the lack of a rule against it as an opportunity to head hunt and apparently Landry has a reputation as that type of…

Well, as the current NFL rule book defines it yes, you are absolutely correct. Which is why the defensive players are saying that if the NFL really is serious about curbing some of the “unnecessary” violence in the game it should look at hits like this and consider making a rule against them. This hit, delivered to a…

So...11 false start penalties on every play then?

Because the DB has his eyes in the backfield the entire time and doesn’t have the expectation of a block coming from the outside and so has no way to defend himself. He’s essentially a defenseless receiver except there’s no rule against it which is why offenses draw it up. So they have a really good point about how…
