From the NY Times article on this: “Her name led to confusion about whether or not she was Muslim. Gary Spencer, a spokesman for the Court of Appeals, said she had told him that she was not.”

14? Yawn. He’ll have 14 new ones tomorrow. Rush Limbaugh has been through this cycle like a dozen times: he says something awful, advertisers bail, new advertisers come in, and the show goes on. There are thousands of potential advertisers. As long as BOR’s show gets ratings, as it has for two decades, the advertisers…

Why Does Andrew Napolitano’s hair start like halfway up his forehead? He has half of a forehead. A twohead, if you will.

Seems to me that this is all good for Trump, right? One line of attack is “he’s not that rich.” Well, he apparently made $150 million IN ONE YEAR. Based solely on that, it’s not hard to imagine that he actually is a billionaire. (He’s been working for like 45 years, right?)

Harry Caray would just like to note that Cilic spelled backwards is Cilic.

Reached for comment, the player said, “I knew I’d already spent the $450, but I thought I’d sprinkle in a few extra items and see if anyone noticed.”

The one person who could have swung the election to Clinton was David Farenthold. All he had to do was sit on the Access Hollywood tape for two weeks and release it a few days before the election. It’s all about timing. You hold the election at one of the many times when Clinton was ahead by 7-8 points and she wins by…

What is the current situation at, say, a Seahawks game? Is there anything, such as metal detectors or pat downs, preventing a person from bringing in a concealed firearm? I’m not counting rules or laws against it, because that’s unlikely to deter someone who wants to murder a bunch of people at a game. If no effort is…

The Cubs are so on steroids this year. Not the Bonds/Sosa kind but some new-fangled variety that the tests don’t pick up yet. David Ross hits 10 HRs at age 39 after having 12 the last 3 seasons combined? Perfectly normal, nothing to see here, everyone move along please.

I hear his attorney is preparing a religious expression defense. Turns out the whole thing was some kind of Pagan ritual.

All that said, you have to admit that Ubaldo Jimenez throwing batting practice was a very fitting end to the Orioles’ season.

So I’m a little confused here. Either Michaels doesn’t want to do the Thursday games or NBC doesn’t want him to. The NFL says whoever does the Sunday games has to do Thursday as well. NBC and Michaels want Michaels on the Sunday games. So how does all this get resolved? As of now, who’s calling what games?

Good on him. As someone who voted for Gary Johnson in 2012 and probably will again this year,* it’s nice to see the Libertarians wake up and realize that sometimes you gotta say outrageous/offensive shit to get attention.

I have two kids and a law degree, but I’m ornery, not irritable. So suck it.

The problem I had with the call is that it resulted in a windfall for the Rays, instead of putting them back where they would have been had Bautista slid into the bag normally. The play started with the bases loaded and one out. The runner from third scored when the Rays were unable to turn the double play. The runner…

Does anyone at gawker/deadspin understand basic grammar and punctuation? The possessive of panthers is panthers'.
