I didn’t say the Open should be run that way. Just that maybe there should be less of a freakout. He should still have been punished for breaking the rules, but the holier than thou takes need perspective.

Dude, every amateur golfer putts a moving ball but holy god it’s the end of the world when fuckin’ Donald Trump is POTUS? Get a grip, golf.

I too, try to avoid America these days. Too bad I live here.

Long shot: He replaces Coach Q in Chicago, even though the Hawks made sure to bring him back. I hope that doesn’t happen, but who knows.

My local sports yakker station is the generally good 670 The Score. However, the Score is either part of the CBS network or contractually obligated to run those “Sports Minutes” during commercial breaks (I had thought the Score left CBS, but the Sports Minutes are still running, as of last week anyway).

That’s what I thought. But a few ICE people I know were complaining about the outcry — “oh this law has been around forever, we’re just enforcing it, and the facts are wrong!” Been looking for a factual counter.

Hmm...on the one hand, this makes Stone look less evil, like he turned down the meeting and nothing bad happened, in addition to making it look like the Russians didn’t know how to deal with Trump. On the other hand, if he’s telling the truth, that doesn’t mean there weren’t other Russians or the Russians didn’t learn.

I am feeling a little to lazy to Google right now, but what was Obama’s policy on this? My understanding was his admin did separate but not as often and in a more humane way (although separation is still bad).

Her logic, and her inability to understand she’s sharing a doctored image, also bothers me.

Keith Richards is still alive....or is he?

Fests are different. You’re exhausted, sunburnt, whatever. And you’ve probably put in over 3 hours.

Saw Paul Simon on his farewell tour and people were bailing after the main set. I could see it if the show was bad, but it wasn’t. It was very excellent! People paid a lot to see a major star on his farewell tour and they were like, OK, well, we can’t spend a half-hour more. So dumb.

I see what you’re saying, but 20 years olds do tend to be dumber than people just a handful of years older. A lot of maturity hits around 22-23.

I suspect that the sound of two guys rubbing their dicks together is staying with Mike Pence long into the night. That’s why he lies sleeping with a smile while Mother longs for a man’s touch.

Ah balls. I typed too fast. Time to die of shame.

I’m a journalist. If you the answer, please tell me.

I’m in favor of better gun laws AND better mental-health resources, but putting all that aside for the moment, how sad it is we live in this world.

I hate this false equivalency. At first, it looks innocuous — “hey, I get to be free to express myself!” And people fall for it, even smart ones. Thing is, though, it’s a little like the Nazis saying “You’re taking away my right to want to put the Jews in camps!” The right to free expression doesn’t cover…

Wrigleyville-ish. I can see the Vic. Say no more.

Saw this last night. It confused us all. We thought that it meant the story was well before A New Hope, because we figured Han had worked for Jabba for a while before Luke and Ben meet him.
