The article states that it spikes on ALL Saturdays and Sundays, as well as on holidays. Your statement reads as an attempt to imply a specific causal relationship between Super Bowl Sunday and increased violence that simply is not supported by the article. Nice try, though.

Did you happen to notice the linked article you provide to support your claim that domestic violence spikes on Super Bowl Sunday is about debunking this myth?
He was not lying, however, when he said, "I'm a shit-eating bureaucrat who's never had to confront the real-life problems I'm so appallingly trying to grapple with through strained attempts at empathy and discipline."
I think if someone in the media says something like this there should be some form of retribution for being wrong. Like we should bring the stockades back solely for this purpose.
and in two weeks, the cycle will start again. Whether "freak-out" is the right word is just semantics. It's just a star player returning to the mean. That said, LBJ is more durable than I imagined he'd be. I think it's also safe to say that asking LeBron and Bosh to shoulder most of last season so Wade would be ready…
I'm looking forward to the next collective freak-out from DS, Bleacher Report, ESPN, Grantland, and Yahoo Sports over whether LeBron is over the hill. And after that, the collective "see, LeBron is not over the hill.......YET!" follow-up analysis.
Wow, New England, even all of the goddamn oceans are against you.

Wouldn't that mean kickoffs will mostly sail out of the endzone and transition right back into a 2 minute commercial break? It does but no one cares?
You probably need a hobby.
Jack Edwards on NESN is BY FAR the worst sports broadcaster on the fucking planet. It's not even close.
If I've said it once, I'll say it again.... Seattle fans are the most insufferable bastards in the sports world. You just can't stop patting yourselves on the back.

My school was out of province for both of us, but one weekend, I wound up visiting a friend in her home city. To make a long story short, my friend would up getting hospitalized and I was left without a place…
Max Scherzer's Agent: [tosses out somewhat misleading contract figures]
Huh... I thought it was supposed to honor the victims' average height of 4'09" at the time the abuse occurred.
Defending Super Bowl champs, preseason favorites to win the Super Bowl this year, top seed in the NFC, favorites in both of their playoff games.....yeah, everyone REALLY was doubting the Seahawks.
The last person this is on is Bostick, and fuck that coach for giving him shit when he went over to the sidelines. The ball does crazy shit on onside kicks. Wanna give somebody shit? Mike McCarthy called that game into the fucking ground for GB.
First league investigation of improperly deflated balls that didn't involve PED use.
It's okay, I'm a joyless fuck too.
Prosecutors remain baffled at the fact that of all the people surveyed, they can't seem to find a Patriots fan who began following the team before 2001.
