Rebuttal: Griffin has been complicit in bringing all of this on himself. And I say that as someone who has desperately wanted him to succeed for the last 3 seasons. I’ve even defended the absurd trade that brought his pick to DC (and now feel stupid for repeatedly doing so).

While you’re at it, can you wish for a pot of gold for me, too? Thanks for your consideration.

I wasn’t referring to, or worried about jobs in the athletic department. I was referring to the poli-sci staffing and admin jobs that would be lost. As far as raising the academic requirements to those of regular students? That will NEVER happen. High Schools give just as much preferential treatment to athletes as…

Sandusky was a pedophile, it’s pretty fucked up that you would equate him to a closeted gay man.

This is certainly terrible news...but we can’t lose sight of what’s really important: Did he have an account on Ashley Madison?

Well, but I think there might be more than one origin story here. I didn’t even know about this hip hop song, and I hear the word and intuitively think of a no strings attached kind of guy. Isn’t it also used by gay men? I mean, I take your point and think it’s true for many many things, but fuckboy? I dunno.

Same here - an old who referred to pretty, yet kinda dumb boys who were good for a screw but not someone you wanted to spend time with outside of bed. AKA slampiece.

Well how do you feel about black people igonring William Shakespeare when the use the word “swag”? After all, he was the one to coin that term.

Oh, bae. Is it a noun? is it a verb? Is it another shortening of baby, such as boo? I JUST DONT KNOW GET OFF MY LAWN!

It is one of the more grating fallacies of her writing when it comes to co-opting of POC culture.

Can confirm. I had a ‘fuckboy’ in college in the early 90s

Are you really saying there’s nothing wrong with the school going to great pains to get to his side (including a polygraph from his defense team) and half-assing it to getting the most basic shit from her side and not even asking Boise about obvious red flags from his previous dismissal? Or are you saying their…

It is hubris. Hubris is borne of taking unreasonable risks enough times that the risk taker becomes convinced there is no risk. See Bill Cosby, Jared Fogle, cops who harass people, etc. this was hubris on the part of Baylor AND Ukwuachu.

Any public or private entity that can feign self-policing will do so. They will uphold the laws that benefit them, and skirt every single other obstruction that could in any way make them look bad.

I NEVER paint with a broad brush. Pretty much everything in Texas sucks.

Excuse you, but Dan is an artíste, and only does the classiest of tattos, such as bears smoking joints and a triple-scoop icecream cone with lightning bolts on a person’s cheek. A single word in elegant script on a neck is just gauche. I mean, she’d probably come to regret that neck tattoo of her child’s name,…

I’ll start out by saying that your neck tat is fucking hot, and super classy, and just about as opposite-of-tacky as I could possibly imagine any neck tattoo being.
