I looked for “nervous laughter gif,” but couldn’t find one. But, had I found it, rest assured I would have posted it here, as a way of reproducing my very-white-reaction to this post.

At like :11 on that video, the woman walking in front of him pushes some guy, who then proceeds up and out of the frame. I’m wondering if the Marco Rubio guy knew her and was stepping to her defense, and hit the guy he thought she was mixing it up with?
I think a lot of it is pandering. Their base, especially primary voters, skew older. So they are going to be receptive to not just talk about building up the military, but it will strike a nostalgic chord with them. “Hell yes, America used to have XX ships, and we kicked ass! Now we have 80% of that, and we suck!…
The neurosurgeon who wouldn’t criticize all of his fellow candidates who said vaccines cause autism? Yeah, I think he might actually be an ignorant fool.
I know the first time it lost you $14 million, though.
Good point about Wisenhunt. It’s always so infuriating when a kid gets drafted top 5 and his dickhole coach has to make a point about “the system” and designs a bunch of plays he’s never seen before. God forbid you give your face-of-the-franchise a few opportunities to find his feet before JJ Watt tries to tear his…
Remember some unnamed NFL GM saying that, re. Mariota, “the lack of red flags is a red flag.” Like you, I really want Mariota to thrive and Winston to be a huge bust, in large part because it would completely drive another nail into the coffin of the “I use my gut to evaluate talent” line of thinking that is more…
The real issue is not that college quarterbacks are so unprepared for the NFL, it’s that they are unprepared for coaches who want them to start immediately and play well. Go back a couple decades, and it was exceedingly rare for a rookie QB to start. Hell, look how many years Aaron Rogers sat behind Brett Favre. I…
Are the cones a metaphor....well, yes AND no...
The problem is not that she did this originally, the problem is that she and her team are so cloistered off from the real world that they STILL have not managed to come up with an effective counterpunch to these charges. The information is being SLOWLY and steadily released, drip by drip, doing sustained damage. It’s…
Yeah, I’m not even sure Ryan noticed that he was touched on that play. He didn’t even look back at him.
He didn’t have “natural athletic ability” but had “a high baseball IQ” and “really worked hard to get the most out of what he had” and “did nothing but hustle out there and play the game the right way.”
Fair enough—I know plenty of liberals who fall into this trap as well. The one difference is that progressives don’t have an equivalent of Fox News to broadcast truthiness to them 24/7. Even media outlets that liberals read (for my parents, the NY Times) has pretensions of objectivity. There’s no such effort made by…
