Putin is a mafia boss/autocrat who was a lifelong communist and worked in the KGB supporting communism for the majority of his life.

Don’t let Trump numb you to the relatively banal evil that is the GOP.

surely michael irvin would have told dez there’d be a second life by sucking up to jerry jones and selling your soul to suburban dallas megachurches

You’d have thought Dez would know by now that everybody is just a commodity to the rich and powerful. They give you some money and then use your body as they see fit until they don’t have use for it anymore. Then they toss you aside. Didn’t his mother teach him anything?

1) Almost all of those people were of dubious motivations themselves, either bitter, trying to get out of their own problems, wanting fame for themselves. The entire cast of actors in the Armstrong show is a litany of crappy people.

2) Do not try to find out how the sausage is made for any professional sports athlete…

I mean, I’m not saying he’s not an asshole. I’m still saying his net positive for the world outweighs the negative. Cancer kids got treatment because of his douchebaggery. Not justifying, but as a believer in Karma being a nice, big equation at the end of ones life, I think his still balances positive (not by much) 

If Brock Turner could throw a football, he’d be considered a hero!

Every lesson is situational. He’ll never again assault an FSU student. He’ll never cop a feel on another Uber driver. I’m looking forward toterrified of his next escapade when he’s accused of forcibly inserting crab legs into a Hooters waitress or something.

I hadn’t thought of that- even if he was innocent of the rape charge at FSU, how could you do something like this after all of that???

You are badly misreading what happened here. That’s just the universe telling you to take that fucking bucket off your head.

I just wish Obama would stop dividing this country.

I don’t get what all the fuss is about. The NFL just wants to make sure that you make a football move before you go to the ground. 

If the NFL doesn’t know what a catch is, how could they ever understand a catch-22?

As with Trump, I am truly amazed by the level of incompetence at the highest levels of the NFL. It’s one thing to disagree with an organization or even to think that its executives are outright evil; it’s staggering to think that the leaders of the most profitable sports league in the world aren’t even smart.

That is the problem I have, right? i don’t like the guy but when we use these words to describe everyone, they lose meaning.

The whole line of questioning is dumb. Literally every single senator, including progressive ones, would respond that way to such an inquiry.

hasn’t been a disaster. Not great enough to justify the salary, of course, but...

Yeah, Simmons was great back when Page 2 was still yellow. But his writing has long since reached the “sign for the veteran’s minimum” stage of its decline.

Was he all-nba a year ago?

No pissing contest is necessary. We have to be able to communicate with each other. I was merely pointing out the absurdity of complaining about the rich while already being rich by the standards of just about any nation in the world, in any era before the one we’re in.
