Unless people have a long enough memory to gut Equinox and SoulCycle (spoiler alert: they don’t) or stop watching the NFL (spoiler alert: they won’t), Ross and Co. don’t really give a fuck. They’re rich, who cares if the plebes hate them? We made it through the Gilded Age without putting guillotines in the town square,…

Bill Walton looks like someone put Dirk in Uncle Drew makeup.
Confession: I played football through high school but never learned to actually throw a ball.
Is it only racism when POCs are the target?
The jaunty “I See A Darkness” is somehow more unsettling than the original (even if you ignore the video with the googly eyes).
I can never tell which of these Eurotrash designers are real and which ones are just operating as fronts for Russian mob money.
we have plenty of hypocrites yelling about their Mexican-made car while they fill up their shopping carts full of Chinese-made goods at Walmart, texting on their Asian-made Android phone and then going home to watch their favorite news channel on a Korean-made TV.
It still astonishes some small part of me that women don’t make up 100% of the head coaches of women’s team sports. It wouldn’t solve all of these situations but there’s no chance that you couldn’t replace every male softball manager/coach with a qualified woman by the end of the week.
It was a little over the top when he started screaming “I AM A GOLDEN GOD.... I’M ON DRUGS.”
Ector County, including the actual rural parts (Odessa’s 100k of 150k total), voted 28% for Hillary (and .5% for Stein). Now adjust that for being in-town (50% Latinx, remember, a demographic that went 2/3 Hillary), youth and occupation (a teacher/principal and her daughter for two) and you’re up to that 40% I talked…
I hope there’s enough semi-principled conservatism left to build something non-Trumpian when he leaves the scene
Odessa (the real Friday Night Lights town) isn’t that rural - it’s ~100k people. (It’s also 50% Hispanic, which adds an extra layer of fiction to the character list.)
Taylor was definitely a Trump voter but there would be way more than one Hillary voter. 60/40 or even 50/50 (given the number of young adults) is…
Quite possibly a Republican, but not a Trump voter.
Growing up on the Montana-Rice teams, I’m thankful for the 49ers being a long-term dumpster fire. It’s made it so much easier for me to make the proper ethical choice to completely ignore the football season.
As best I can tell (finding soccer stats blows) he’s converted 85% of PKs for his career, the global average is 75% and MLS has been in the high 70s except for this season. Given a small sample size, that’s not much to go on to say it works better than if he just used a normal run-up.
Dunno why capitalism is to blame, that’s such an abstract notion.
Manny’s coasting on popularity from over a decade ago, when his primary story was a humble/scrappy/underdog/yada yada yada story - then we heard him open his mouth.
Not trying to pick on you but every time I see a take on when, precisely, shit got bad my head explodes.
Did no one learn about William Randolph Hearts and the Spanish-American War in school? “News” has always been about revenue and ideological propagation.
why should a casual soccer fan watch MLS over Liga MX or a Euro league?
