Also the point of being allowed to overrun 1st is to compensate for the runner having to start running with a bat in his hand standing dead footed in the batter’s box. It would be impossible to reach 1st safely on any infield ball if you weren’t allowed to sprint full out. Once on the basepaths the runner has all the…

And yet people were still trying to give her credit for some sly backhanded public diss. That would be FAR too uncivil for her delicate taste.

Alvin Kamara approaches this level of coolness on the field. I know it’s sacrilege to compare anyone to Sanders, especially this early in their career, and Kamara isn’t exactly the same style of player, but god damn he looks like a video game character.

I’m still 100% convinced that clap was her sincerely trying to praise Trump for some SLIGHTLY moderate thing that came out of his mouth. 

This is one of those cases where being a somewhat casual tennis fan helps. In the decade since I became aware of Djokovic I never really paid attention to any of the off court drama that had him labeled a “heel.” When I caught his matches on occasion I’d see some of the mugging but always thought it came across as in…

Even if you take them at their word that it’s all just an effort to get the most accurate and detailed information about the population, what are they suggesting they would use the citizenship information FOR? Decrease services in areas with high numbers of non-citizens? Increase ICE presence in specific neighborhoods?…

I actually can’t remember if I was ever inside there. Ordered it for lunch constantly. Happy hour was usually Fanellis or Toad Hall.

I worked half a block away for years and that was by far the best BBQ anywhere close to the area. I was extremely pissed when it closed.

I randomly caught the first 30 minutes or so of this on like Showtime 6 late one night and it is a WEIRD movie.

Crocs has a flagship store in Soho in NYC that is no shit across the street from the Chanel flagship store. It’s in one of those little 18th century stand alone buildings that somehow survive in random pockets of Manhattan and so of course the first thing Crocs did was tear down the back half of it and build a giant…

Let’s try it this way...

It sounds like maybe we are both coming to the same conclusion?

So your argument is that Trump is a rational, moral actor accepting of moderate advice from the more reasonable members of his party. Sure. Ok.

Ok Trump is bad also?

I am encouraged by the fact that Trump is, above all else, an enormous coward. He’s too cowardly to actually fire his own employees. While I am glad he didn’t green light the retaliatory strikes last week, and while I don’t necessarily care what motivations lead someone like him to do the right thing, I am 100% sure…

Even assuming there somehow aren’t locks on the doors of the facilities, is the suggestion that the problem could be solved if all of the kids just wandered out into the street to fend for themselves? Wouldn’t they be some sort of “undocumented immigrants” at that point who this guy would insist needed to be rounded…

I’m all for ragging on Commonly Hated Teams - your Alabamas, your Cowboys, your All Things Boston - but I’m not sure when or why the Lakers got lumped in with all that. They were cool as hell for decades (Kareem, Magic, Shaq) and then I guess Kobe was a wiener for a while so we all started hating them? I don’t have…

When impeachment proceedings were brought against Nixon his approval rating was 65% and only 19% of the public supported impeachment. After the hearings had aired his approval rating was under 25% and 57% of the public supported impeachment. This excuse that impeachment “isn’t popular” before they’ve done ONE SINGLE…

As an Old Man I seem to remember a Renaissance of candy bars in the late 80's/early 90's that resulted in the most underrated candy bar of all time: Whatchamacallit. I also seem to remember this was the period when Twix came into existence? Am I wrong? FIGHT ME.

I had never really bothered to look into it until the whole kerfuffle over the last season, but why is anyone shocked that a pair of showrunners whose biggest cumulative professional achievement beforehand was writing the screenplay for X-men Origins: Wolverine couldn’t pull off writing the back half of one of the…
