I also enjoy someone dropping troglodyte into causal conversation, but unfortunately, it wasn’t Thome, it was Thorn. Easy to visually confuse the two.

It is the worst. It’s the baseball equivalent of the glow-puck.

It’s true that if he files an answer he’s pretty much going to have to include that language. It’s also true that optics matter. He’s elected by the citizens of the city, most of whom don’t understand the mechanics of pleading and affirmative defenses, and so aren’t going to get that distinction. It’s also true that…

How does it being boilerplate make it okay?

y don’t u just beat up ppl who do it like the dark knight of handicapped 

Don’t care if it comes at the hands of the police

If this was Oakland, no one would ever stop talking about what a shithole no-electricity-having dump the stadium is, and it would be the only thing anyone ever talked about no matter what.

John McCain’s seat lasts until 2022. If he had resigned before May 30, Arizona would have held a special election this November to pick his replacement to serve from the remainder of McCain’s term. Since he refused to resign when it became clear he was not capable of serving, and it’s too late to hold a special…

His reputation as a maverick was 100% complete and total bullshit. Still, that thumbs-down was epic. And thousands will live because of that one act.

I like the idea that there can only be one way to be racist

Him not working again may also be a feature rather than a bug. If he’s no longer willing to get his face punched in for the pay he’s been getting offered, he wasn’t going to be working any more anyway. Either way, they’ll have no problem finding another warm body to fill his spot. But ruining an event like this at…

Disagree, and I think that take edges closer than you’d like to “well why don’t they march on the sidewalk instead of blocking traffic?”. His inconveniencing everyone was a feature of his protest, not a bug. If he doesn’t sign the contract or withdraws before the fight, the promoter just finds another tomato can, we…

Yeah man, it’s almost like a system of mostly white people making most of the profits off of mostly black people violently shortening their lives for the viewing pleasure of a mostly white audience is structurally racist.

Maybe he thought she was only wearing a red waistband.

He’s right. Nothing is as disrespectful to the game of tennis as wearing clothing designed for comfort and ease of movement while you play it.

I get what you’re saying, but look at this sentence a little differently:

Epic comment, bro

This is really good content, thanks.

I feel like American culture in general has decided that we like the idea of our prisons being violent torture/ramp camps, as horrifying as that is. Go back a few months and check the comments on Nassar stories on this website, I bet you’ll find people fantasizing about Nassar being beaten or raped and getting dozens…

Doesn’t the federal prison system have units specifically for persons at high risk of injury in the general population? California does, at Corcoran. In addition to Charles Manson (until recently) and other celebrities, there’s a decent number of: guys who have renounced their gang affiliations; former law enforcement…
