I just have a hard time believing that 2 teams in LA will make a significant difference in the TV contracts. They’re paying the price they are for the national games, not the local ones. What’s the difference nationally if one team is in LA instead of St Louis or San Diego? Can’t be much; national game ratings are…

The NFL has 9 year deals with the networks that began in 2014. They wouldn’t realize any TV benefit from the move until 2023.

They need to provide Henry with his preferred medium, the small intestines of a recently murdered seal.

This is a good and correct opinion.

so, this universe?

It also assumes you are bad at math. Roe v Wade was 1973 (and abortion was broadly but not entirely illegal prior). Comment in 1995. No post-Wade babies could possibly be President until 2008.

I love winter. Because I spend all year longing for the sweet, silent embrace of death and winter comes the closest.

My gut says it’s probably about a coin flip either way, slightly in favor of going for 2. The stats aren’t far enough off from that for me to say otherwise. If it’s me, I go with the option that guarantees putting the ball in the hands of the best player in the NFL.

He had the ball with a chance to win the game. His coach decided to kick that chance through the uprights. Blame Mike if you want to blame somebody. The rules are as good as they are going to be.

I think it was the wrong call, but defensible. I also think that 538 understates the advantage of going for 2 a bit. They ignore the relative strengths of the teams for their OT win %. Given that Green Bay entered the game as a 7 point dog, their actual chance of winning in OT is probably lower than 40%.

I’m pretty sure that Chris Cooley quote is in there to remind you that everyone around Dan Snyder is also insane.

great name

Oh shit, my geographical area has been narrowed down. Yeah, KFAN.

A Lightning fan? Are you absolutely positive that you exist?

MLB is starting to stream some games locally. 15 teams have a deal in place to start in 2016. Not your Mets, sadly.

For my local station it is male-targeted divorce attorneys.

Definitely seems more a case of “At least 13% of Americans don’t know who Elana Kagan is, go with answer D by default”

My wife has also been playing this game since it was all in Japanese. She got super excited when Guy Furry, the chef cat, started showing up.

unlike many of his counterparts who engage in gratuitous kidnapping and murder, El Chapo is a businessman first, and only resorts to violence when he deems it advantageous to himself or his business interests.

Warren Moon played high school ball against Eric Berry and Morgan Burnett? Must have been quite a sight.
