If there’s a lot of drama and tension in a workplace, then everyone who works there deserves at least a basic explanation. I’ve been in the receptionist’s place and it stinks. Eventually someone from another department will hear about it, approach her and she will feel foolish and demeaned for her lack of knowledge.…

Wait, the punishment is not being allowed *in* Levi’s Stadium? You sure you heard him right?

No, of course not. But without any progress on the actual issue, you can’t say he’s won. Doing so is just a strategy to pay lip service without actually doing anything.

I’d pay $100 just to see Obama, for once, answer a question about one of these inane ‘controversies’ with the “Jesus, who the fuck CARES?” that it deserves.

“Softball is its own sport.”

I agree! Now all we need is more women to support the sport and start coaching. That’s the tricky part. Softball has a rather large university pipeline, there are traveling teams for high schoolers, etc. Women’s baseball has a huge job ahead of them.

This made me look up if PFTCommenter had any Trump taeks. Was not disappointed.

It’s not just possible, it’s almost certainly the case. But never let facts get in the way of some good outrage.

In the rest of the world, women’s soccer definitely is.

I believe I may be able to shed some light on why the publications cited in this article cited the Holiday story the way they did. Both the Times-Picayune and the New Orleans Advocate are New Orleans-based publications — they serve the citizens of the city of New Orleans and the surrounding area. Jrue Holiday is a…

Her struggle—their struggle—has nothing to do with the Pelicans,

I’m sure there is an element of sexism to this, but could it be impossible that a New Orleans paper is choosing to frame this story around the husband because he’s an athlete for a New Orleans team? I get as exhausted as everyone else by women being treated as accessories to men’s lives, but in this case I think it…

Is the world cup on? I don’t care about male or female soccer players until then.
