That’s the problem with prosecuting sexual assault, it often comes down to he said she said. I just read yesterday about a woman who was just sentenced to 10 years for making 15 false rape accusations. A guy spent 7 years in prison for a rape he never committed. So even though the natural reaction is to believe her,…

Technically, had the Mets realized their mistake after Cabrera’s double, they could’ve put Flores back out there to bat to avoid any penalty (because Cabrera becomes the proper batter after his double); although, the Reds obviously would’ve appealed upon seeing this.

A) Yes

Meanwhile there is a actual real life living day slave trade in Africa, but no one cares.

Fine, cancel all non-revenue generating sports for tens of thousands of student athletes, including all women’s sports. I don’t know where you people think the money to pay players will come from, but most athletic departments are funded on the backs of football and basketball earnings.

Perhaps you didn’t read the part about how the system should be improved. But yeah, an athletic scholarship is most certainly compensation.

It certainly wasn’t meaningless to the dozen or so scholarship athletes I’ve known. 

I sympathize with her take ( I only read what’s posted here) but disagree with her solution. And slavery? C’mon man. The NCAA may be a corrupt organization with its own self-interest at heart, but slavery? That’s just a ridiculous comparison.

“where the laborers are the only people that are not being compensated for the work that they do”

The idea that players are not compensated (they are, to the tune of the equivalent of $50K plus per year) and can be even remotely compared to slaves and prisoners is insulting and 100% pure bullshit.

Like dad used to say - “son, never do 100 yard sprints in a 90 yard gym.”

Wasn’t Kenny Smith also interviewed or considered? Lol

Milwaukee would seem the best job to me. I don’t think you can rule out a return to SA, but I personally hope that when Pop steps down, he bequeaths the job to Becky Hammon as a final Pop-style move toward inclusion.

Did Budenholzer turn them down? I read somewhere that he was very interested in the NY job (for some reason). Maybe he’s got his eye on Milwaukee?

Don’t talk to me about the most expensive double of your career.

Sounds racist there. Why would should he have chosen it?

You’re a racist piece of shit, don’t think you can back peddle now.

JFC. Marvel had a role to cast in Ant-Man & the Wasp. Laurence Fishburne was available and took the part. Simple as that. Not sure why this is even a discussion. Diverse casting in more movies = good. End of story.

I will watch Marisa Tomei in anything. I will watch her recite “ABC...” waiting in a dentist office.

Honestly, if I had the choice between playing in a naturalistic set using my own dialect or standing on a green stage while using some nondescript “African” accent, I would go with the former.
