In the movie Cast Away, Tom Hanks spends four years on an island....alone. When he returns to civilization, his estranged wife notes “We got a football team now.”

Nashville is the spiritual home of every suburban girl who claims to be “country at heart” because she owns cowboy boots and her parents are racist.

If this somehow doesn’t work out, the Vikings might just be better off skipping that position entirely and becoming the team that always goes for it on fourth down.

I have too much respect for him to get into that. He’s a good man. Let’s not forget that he is a father, a husband, a grandfather, a buffoon, a grifter, a racist, a thief, a fraud, an enlarged pee-splattered sno cone, a bewildered golden-helmeted astronaut who’s just landed on this planet from a distant planet, a…

Chris, it makes sense. You don’t need dissension in that organization or any other for that matter. If there’s an anonymous leak, fire everyone. Beckham, gone. Mayfield, bye bye. Joey selling hot dogs in 44a, he’s done. Set the stadium on fire. 

I used to know this dude, a recovering crack addict, but still for whatever reason, hung out at bars. One night there was a ruckus starting, and he was in the middle of it. Despite his past transgressions, he wasn’t a bad guy and we got along. As I was trying to pull him away, he looked at me, dead in the eye and said…

Yeah. I actually liked him more as I read down through his tweets. So that kinda backfired.

Admittedly, my social life consists of conquering the world on Crusader Kings II, but . . . I’m not seeing a lot here to complain about. I mean, yeah, the homophobia-is-a-symptom-of-repressed-gay-status was officially played off by American Beauty, but mostly I see the corny guy who kind of knows he’s corny in those…

Counterpoint: No, he doesn’t. He’s a genuinely good person who is imperfect, like everyone is, but is actually willing to learn and grow.

When employers attack workers’ and their families’ livelihoods, it is a form of violence.

Well, let’s focus on all her achomlishments that aren’t “being John McCain’s daughter”. So there’s…

No offense to the Dems: but this is how you do it. This is what should’ve been done to Barr et al. instead of hemming and hawing over the ‘appropriateness’ of the actions taken. Don’t give them time to mount their defense, don’t give them time to plan.
