That doesn’t really seem worth it if you’re already paying for cable.

Is the option to pay the extra $10 for the out of market feed only available to cable susbcribers or is it available to “cord cutters” too?

There seems to be a trend of there being fewer goons and Scott probably shouldn’t be in the league. But he had nothing to do with the All Star vote. That was the fans and the NHL’s fault for allowing it to begin with. There’s no reason to take it out on him when Arizona was seemingly happy to keep him on the roster as…

The Rams fan in VA should just keep rooting for the Rams. What’s the difference between rooting for a team halfway across the country versus all the way across the country? You don’t get the games on tv (unless you have Sunday Ticket), you don’t have friends nearby who are fans of the same team, and you have to take a…

Normally I would agree with you, but I think it was pretty clear in this case that he was demoted in retaliation for winning the All Star vote. The fans embarassed the NHL and the NHL took it out on Scott. The Coyotes could have traded or demoted him at any time and it didn’t happen until a few days after he won the…

He still got screwed. He had to move his family and when players get demoted to the AHL, they take a paycut.

He’s an NFL head coach. I’m sure he can afford to live anywhere he wants.

This confuses me too. Maybe he got the sense that the Giants weren’t that serious about him? Or he was deadset on going to a team that gave him more control over personnel than the Giants?

Is Paxton Lynch not first round worthy? I’ve heard that he has a good chance at being a top 10 pick, but I don’t follow college football closely enough to know if he’s worth that.

Jonathon Goff (Cal) and Paxton Lynch (Memphis) are both supposed to go in the top 10 and probably even the top 5. I have no idea if they’re actually worthy of a top 5 pick or they’re just projected to go that high because there are a lot of teams that need QBs.

Yeah, I don’t understand this. I know the 49ers are a mess right now, but it’s still a better job than the Browns. Plus, San Francisco is a nicer place to live than Cleveland.

You should have planned ahead better: pick a New Year’s Eve party that was showing the game.

But it’s possible to both honor the Rose Bowl contract and have both semifinals on New Year’s Day. Rose Bowl at 1 pm Eastern, Semifinal 1 at 4 pm, and Semifinal 2 at 8 pm (and in years when the Rose Bowl is one of the semifinals, move it to 4 pm). The Sugar Bowl would have to move though and I think they are also…

According to Wikipedia, George Pataki had appendicitis in 2006 during his last year as governor and there were complications from the surgery.

I have no idea how much of the next book he has written, but he must be intending to write it. If he has no interest in writing it, it’s a big enough of a series that the publisher would just hire a ghost writer or co-author to finish it for him. That hasn’t happened, so at the minimum, he plans to write more.

Most of these guys know they’re not going to get elected president, or even come close. They have other goals ranging from getting a tv job to getting a cabinet position or setting up a run for governor. Pataki is one of the few that I couldn’t figure out. He doesn’t have the personality for TV and if he wanted that…

Summer birthdays are the best. No one wants to go to school on their birthday. July 1-Aug. 20th is the sweet spot. Depending on where you live and your age (because the college school year doesn’t match up with elementary/high school), May 15-June 30, and Aug 21-Sept 7 could be good too. Those dates are good for…

The best time to have a birthday is in the summer when school is out. No one wants to go to school on their birthday. And for adults, you can plan your summer vacation so that you’re off from work on your birthday (no one wants to waste a full week off in the middle of March when you can’t do anything cool and if you…

Why did the Giants-Vikings game get flexed to Sunday night? No one is going to want to watch that. If the Giants and Eagles both win in week 16 and their week 17 match up is a play-in game, sure, flex that, but it makes no sense to do it for week 16. Patriots-Jets, Falcons-Panthers, Rams-Seahawks, Packers-Cardinals,…

A work of classic literature above their reading level. “What do you mean you only like Diary of a Wimpy Kid? Everyone likes Pride and Prejudice.”
