Whenever I see that video (and others like it) I wonder if the people around him had any sense that they were literally watching an all time great meme happen right before their eyes.

Goddam, dude, her JOB was to get info from the coaches that she could use for her stories. He was her only source. If she got all “excuse me, but I am a decent woman, and resent your tone, sir!” with him, he would have shut her down, which he eventually did for much less. She was in no position to be blunt with him,…

Ok, I’ll amend that to “one of the biggest jerks of his generation” if it makes you feel better.

“One of the best and most welcome developments of the 2016 baseball season is Barry Bonds returning to the major leagues as a hitting coach with the Miami Marlins.”

I still have not gotten over my shock/dismay that they just straight up gave out her room number. Beyond the fact that she’s a celebrity (which they presumably knew about?), she’s a single woman traveling by herself, and they just tell some random dude what room she’s in *and* let him book next to her? Crazy.

I will grant a SLIGHT exemption to tape delay Olympics, but that’s it. Nothing worse than the friend who shows up at a party the night of a big game and loudly proclaims that he had to tape the game earlier, SO NOBODY TALK ABOUT IT, K?

I love that someone could be misquoted by TV Guide. Then again, why am I surprised, since the lamestream media loves to misquote people to fit their radical, left-wing agenda.

Not to the mention the subtle-but-smooth “in my hometown” line, which will make Ben remember all the dumbshits from her hometown that she said “bless their heart” about, and he’ll realize, damn, I’m one of them.

What, really rich? I’ll go with “proud.”

Ye gods, why pay the money for that clip and then run it in slow motion???

“We are launching an internal peer review on the process and sequence of events that led up to our publication of this story as well as systemic and organizational factors ranging from how our team is resourced to our efforts to build a more diverse and inclusive culture.”

Yeah, but, come on, they were operating from a position of strength in that negotiation, no? The guy had so many charges he was facing, any of which could have sent him away for more than 9. Instead the deal he accepted seems like it was offered from a position of weakness.

What is the logic, from a prosecutor’s standpoint, of allowing him to serve the sentences concurrently?

Exactly. Would make good sense for StubHub to contract with certain companies and bundle the delivery charge with the ticket prices.

Probably good news for NYC’s bike messenger community, however. I imagine that Stub Hub prices plus whatever fee the bike messenger charges will be far less than Ticketmaster’s prices.

Apart from crashing, which most people think won’t happen to them, there is no disincentive for people who text. None. I drive 100 miles to my organization’s main office twice each week, and for most of the time, on the highway, LITERALLY (not figuratively, but literally) everyone is texting. It’s crazy. There needs…

Sorry, I hate to be that guy, but it’s *paring* down.

It’s often an overcorrection brought about by distracted driving...someone’s car starts to veer right and they don’t notice, then yank the wheel to the left and lose control, crossing over into oncoming traffic.

Ah ha. That’s a really interesting twist, thanks.

“The indictment also said Tucker’s businesses failed to obtain licenses to operate in any of the states where licenses for that sort of thing are required.”
