I once appeared before an immigration judge pro bono on an asylum case for a client claiming asylum based on “membership in a particular social group” (i.e. client was gay), and the judge asked me, “how will your client prove their proclivities?”

Can someone post pics of X minutes before kickoff again? I love those. Thank you.

“For the coach and his/her family, it’s economic uncertainty...”

Back when he was at NFL Network and not constantly exposing himself as a weirdo racism skeptic, I didn’t think he was that bad either.... I now know how gross that was, but I do take some comfort in the fact that my attraction probably would have made him deeply uncomfortable.

Is it clear to everyone else that Breer is angling to become some kind of junior varsity Clay Travis?
