This is nowhere near being over. She was denied a preliminary injunction but can still get a permanent injunction later (that decision will probably come in a few months, possibly after a trial). To oversimplify a bit, preliminary injunctions are for emergencies only. Essentially, the judge ruled that this is not an…

I do too, but he’s right: it’s completely formulaic. You can always tell if House’s most recent diagnosis is correct based on how much time is left in the episode. And every season has more or less the same arc: House struggles with his Vicodin addiction, makes progress, has a setback. Doesn’t mean it’s not a good…

He dropped out a week ago, but, yeah, this article is late.

I agree that Rand Paul has a few good ideas that the Republican Party should adopt (like criminal justice reform). However, he take libertarianism to fairly extreme conclusions, but he hides it well. Here are the two examples that stand out the most to me:

Ted Cruz has plenty of gun experience. That’s how he cooks his bacon!

Maybe he just really likes Budweiser.

There was a report a few weeks ago that if Lynch retired this offseason, he would have to pay the Seahawks back $5 million from his signing bonus. I know that he’s rich, but that’s still a lot of money: that’s a little less than half of what he made this year. Does anyone know what’s going on with that? Did he work…

I haven’t seen exit polls on what he supporters did once O’Malley was declared not viable (as you may know, the caucuses are weird and if a candidate doesn’t get 15% in one location, their supporters are told to vote for someone else instead), but some pre-caucus polls indicated that they were going split roughly…

I always liked using the money bag, but it doesn’t seem to even be on anyone else’s list. I don’t think I had a special edition.

One of my friends in college bought Axis and Allies. I played once and we decided to start playing at like 10 or 11 pm. It took like an hour to set up and for him to explain the rules. I quit and went to bed before the end of the first turn.

The DH debates always focus on whether pitchers should be hitting, but I think they’re missing an important element: should sluggers be playing the field? I say yes. If the Red Sox want to pay Ortiz to hit, they should be stuck with his bad defense too.

The silloutte you saw almost definitely was a shadown. Shadows can do weird things. Someone probably walked past on the street and the angle of the light gave him a long shadow.

I heard that it was cotton growers who wanted to get rid of hemp cloth.

This is my favorite argument against the moon landing being fake: if it was staged, NASA would have had a second success story by now.

Is the Oklahoma band like the Michigan band in that it only knows one song? I went to a college hockey game against Michigan a few years ago and whenever their band started playing we all chanted “learn a new song.”

If I remember correctly, there have been only FOUR instances of a head coach going for two at the end of regulation to win a game instead of forcing overtime

After he retires, the St. Louis and Arizona Cardinals will meet in a Papal Enclave to elect a new Sports Pope. Little is known about this secretive process that last happened in 1987.

I think that’s exactly right. My anecdote wasn’t to the say that I think the pretzel example is right (I don’t think it is), but to illustrate how MLB is thinking.

This reminds me of a story that you might find interesting: last semester, one of MLB’s lawyers came to speak to one of my classes and he mentioned this lawsuit. He said that a lot of people complain that MLB doesn’t sell single game streams online. His argument against that was that buying a single game stream is…
