It was a misquote on my part to indicate the author admitted, so thank you for the semantic pedantry. The point is, there is no direct accusation of any wrongdoing; if this leads to something great, expose it. If not, this is just piling on a confirmation bias that there is something shady happening with no real proof.

No, what he said was the actual use of lineup data in the previous case was ethically opaque. he just mentions that stuff as part of an implication that some malfeasance happened her without any proof.

“Why even mention this point without an accusation that he could access this lineup data?”

This article is complete bullshit.

It is exactly a stretch.

If you are aware of lineup data before you pick your team, you have advance knowledge of which players will give you a higher relative advantage should they score.

Sorry, you caught me on a semantic. Literally no one lowers their head like that anymore due to the neck snapping possibility. Helmet to helmet shots (the original statement) are still legal though.

The 2013 change was in regards to the RB using the crown of his helmet as a battering RAM outside the tackle box. I think that penalty’s been called once since it was implemented. The only thing I can find in the actual rule book regarding helmet contact says it can’t be used unnecessarily, which i suppose is up to…

Yes they can. If they’re running, everything is fair game. During the act of a catch is the only time players othet than the QB are protected from helmet to helmet hits. Unless they introduced a new rule this year that I didn’t see.

My favorite part about this post is the math, where 100 out of 1000 unwarranted shooting deaths by police is a pretty good success rate. My second favorite part is how a killing is justifiable if the person had a gun on them. Sounds to me like the government is takin' our guns. Where's the NRA??

The joke

If they wanted to keep Drake out of the arena, maybe they shouldn’t have named the team the Toronto Rapstars, Tom. Because rap is the style of singing Drake is most known for, and he happens to be one of the biggest Rapstars in what young people refer to as, “the game.” It’s not Drake the Rapstar’s fault that you…

No, you’re absolutely right, the GOP always has the plight of the American worker in mind.

None of what you listed indicates maturity or physical age. A 26 year old drug dealer or landscaper could say the same thing.

Then feel free to roll over and die - or do whatever it is you do that ultimately contributes to your perception of the problem and conveniently absolves you of any responsibility.

I love how the city that tried to do the right thing in the first place is being punished more than the state is. Too bad Charlotte can’t catch a break with this crap.

Dear America,

It’ll be fun to see all the Klinsmann haters pop up when we go out in the group stage.

Wan, basement-dwelling, 5'4" keyboard ‘experts’: Just learn to make your damn free throws, already, Big Men. It’s the easiest shot in the game. Practice, hard work, bootstraps...

He took two steps before making contact with Paul. The defender should be able to change his path in that time. If he can't, it's because he's out of control.
