Those rule changes were never put into effect before Obama left office and Trump suspended them as soon as he got in. FLSA exemption starts below $25k, and it was the increased income threshold that was going to make the most difference because ‘essential’ and ‘independent’ work is necessarily so nebulous.

It’s not “intimate relationship,” it’s “spouse or intimate partner.” The connotation’s pretty clear.

Thanks to a history of fan violence, you almost can’t buy a ticket without a club membership or at least ID so as to keep the supporters separated. I’m sure it’s not 100% foolproof, but keeping individuals out isn’t a new problem for English clubs.

You say that, but at 2-10, even 3-13 would mean trending up.

A lot of Jewish retirees are deeply conservative. Sheldon Adelson is more an outlier for his wealth than his worldview.

Say what you will about the strengths of Lewis as a head coach, but nobody’s listing “wasted the prime years of Andy Dalton’s career” as his biggest fault.

Do refs get fined? Of course not. They have a union.

That’s a fine list of Greggs ranked by newsiest right now, but doesn’t really mean anything else.

You see a black background on that flag, buddy?

All that accomplishes is trading brain injury for skull fractures. It wouldn't be an improvement.

Sure, but it's worth remembering that by the time Bortles got his extension, the alternative was Case Keenum or Sam Bradford.

If it makes you feel better, I’d bet money it’s an attempted clever nod to Ada (Lovelace, née Byron, recognized inventor of the first computational algorithm and namesake for that programming language).

Inasmuch as a single score, possession or turnover in basketball matters just a little less than one in football, this may not be a perfect comparison.

Of course. Just be prepared for a lot of people to assume you’re Catwoman.

It’s not effortless: the sugar syrup is fussy, the marshmallow is super sticky and will get everywhere if you’re not careful, to the extent that if you don’t have a stand mixer or especially big mixing bowl it’s probably not worth it.

Unless it’s said sarcastically, which it nearly always is. Of all the things to grind a prescriptivist ax over, could v couldn’t is definitely among the dumbest.

It’s one of those terrible terms that came from the late-nineties wave of political correctness

So what you’re saying is that we can all agree that a fumble is always the result of a loss of possession, but if the live loose ball on the field doesn’t result from a loss of possession (which pretty much exactly and only happens on punts), we need more than one word depending on intent?

I don’t think it’s a meaningful distinction. It’s not a live ball until touched by a Giants player, and OBJ was that player. The Giants weren’t fielding that ball (and at the goal line, there’s no reason they should have).
