If we take away the ability of teams to get long-term draft assets, aren’t we making it harder for teams to trade a player who wants to leave (Davis, George, Westbrook) for anything close to fair value? I agree that players who don’t want to be on their team should have the ability to go where they would like, but…

“Just the other day, Philip Morris announced a synergistic marriage from hell with Vice in a deal worth £5 million ($6.58 million going by today’s exchange rates) to promote their vaping products, ostensibly to young customers, so that Juul won’t end up owning their shit.”

In the original movie, Mrs. Jumbo named him Jumbo Jr. It was the the other elephants than started calling him Dumbo.

A trademark protects items that help define a company brand, such as its logo. A patent protects the holder from other making and selling their invention. So Amazon can trademark any new business ventures even if a similar one exists.

Could sexual assault be a pre-existing condition? Maybe, but there’s no evidence this was ever widespread.

Chunk Love Jeter?

OMG!!! We had the same problem. Why make a nonmagnetic fridge?

Much like the spam sandwich, I like taking a hamburger bun, frying up three slices of pork roll (Taylor Ham to some) until crisp and adding a slice of American cheese and either pickles or relish. It’s wonderful.
