Well, not "weird" so much as it is a way to put forth the charade that these are serious matters, taken seriously by serious people, when in reality it's two loud people talking loudly in an attempt to 'win' a contrived argument by speaking loud. ESPN cares about as much about serious discussion and/or debate about…

It's for (air quotes) 'science'....of course it is!

Frankly, the fact that there's so much effort to justify Rice's knocking the woman unconscious is terrifying to me.

Y'know, I'm pretty sure people would bray something about losing my mancard, or being a pussy or whatever, but after this fucking shit-circus, I'm just about completely done with the NFL. Oh, I've been done with ESPN for years, because they promote asshats screaming over each other as 'debate', and I didn't have to…

My favorite part of the whole shitty escapade was Harbaugh suggesting that kids learned a valuable lesson with this strict and swift punishment. Actions have consequences, or some such bullshit.

"Christ, Mark! Have you even HEARD of shampoo?"

"Holy shit! What an arm!"—Johnny Damon

"That's easy, Mark! We'd get right up in their faces and loudly proclaim something along the lines of 'IN YO FACE, BITCHES! SEE YA IN HEAVEN.....OR NOT! LULLLLLZ!"—Ken Ham

As a damn-near lifelong Pirates fan, I remember relishing the damage he was inflicting as part of the Bonds/Van Slyke/Bonilla outfield, and was heartbroken to see him head to the Giants. If he would've just been content with being a complete badass, instead of trying to soothe his butthurt about other players getting…

It's okay. Doug Gottlieb IS pretty confused about anything that doesn't have to do with Doug Gottlieb.

"Hold on a sec. Let's not be hasty, here. Are they any good? I mean, that's pretty important, you know."—Raj Goodell

"No, Mr. Epstein, it's not because of the market-size. It's because we DESERVE this spot. The top spot would, of course, have been more accurate, but, well, we must be charitable towards those who are not us, correct?"—the Cardinals and their fans

Raj and the gang, looking out over the landscape and laughing at the pitiful, weak protestations, giving the finger to those who are enraged by this "punishment".

She's inspired him to pen a private version just for her: "She's a Two Guard"

Amazing how they managed to catch Oden in one of his rare 'happy' moments!

"Palmer, who married Rice after the incident, went on to apologize for her role in getting punched out."

The Lionel Hutz Online School of Lawyering?

"Haha! Because rape is fuckin' funny! I don't mean, like, Anchorman funny, but just funny. Know how I know? Because my daddy said so! He's, like, the funniest dude I know! But seriously, dudes, stop with the rape stuff. Pops said for me to tell you guys that."—Arya Toufanian

"Wonder what he REALLY does think. I'd like to ask him, but I'm afraid of rejection. I bet we'd be good friends if we just got to know each other. God, I'd take a bullet for him.
