Deadspin forever.

I am 6'3" and airplanes used to be extremely uncomfortable, but recent innovations in seat thickness seem to have made things a bit better on most carriers.

Cool! Now circle Bakhtiari’s left hand.

Right. This is how free markets work. The value of a product or service is defined by the market-clearing price. The kid is allowed to say "I will endorse your business for $1M." The booster can say "yes" or "no." And if the booster says "yes," that is his decision, and it means he sees the expense as justified. It…

That second pass was objectively stupid.

Live fucking sucked. I loved Nirvana, Pearl Jam, etc. and grew up on Q101, as I assume you did, Chicago guy. But Live was terrible. Truly tortuous lyrics and boring-ass musicianship and production. Creed was basically arena-rock Live.

In retrospect, perhaps we should have expected that NFL Referee Clock Boner would make exactly this kind of mistake...

This is excellent satire.

Solid burn, chief

Just as I support Colin Kaepernick’s right to protest injustice by kneeling during the national anthem, I support Drew Brees’ right to align himself with bigoted assholes.

I would file this under America’s more general hatreds of math and thinking too hard about anything.

the WR was one of two players who had voluntarily left the program.

Here is the thing!

More like Jalen Helps am i right folks

Also just a huge indictment of how bad coaches are at adjusting, both in-game and (somehow) in preparation for a game. They all want to play the game on their terms, which basically means that a coach like Belichick knows exactly what you’re going to do.

Those are the two end states, but that doesn’t mean those are the solutions. The problem is not that Gordon isn’t getting paid. He should get paid because he’s great. The problem is that the incentives of management and the players (especially RBs) are misaligned. My question is about how you actually better align…

Did not see this coming

Probably fair on Conner.

Ha. No. I just don't think it's as simple as "pay him."

Sure, it may be “right” to pay Gordon, but I don’t know that it’s actually smart. Running backs break down, and there are very few who can’t be replaced with 90% of the production at 20% or less of the cost.
