Are you insane? The market for him is going to be in like the 4th-5th round range. The Cowboys have absolutely no interest in paying Romo’s massive contract and corresponding even larger cap hit, and the teams that are interested in him know that and know they’ll end up releasing him if there’s no successful trade.…

You clicked on an article called Jake Peavy Had a Truly Terrible Year, and you’re mad that the contents of the article describe how Jake Peavy had a truly terrible year.

Rumors abound that Peavey is not the squeaky clean Christian family man he pushes himself out there to be. Living and working near the Padres Spring training complex when he was with the team there were stories of his exploits among the local waitstaff’s. Your cynicism may be misplaced.

You’d have to be seriously insane to consider this kind of bizarre behavior. Running for miles and miles. Nuts, I say.

I think there were free whiskey samples being poured last time I flew into Portland.

He was good. You got me there.

and then the rest of the movie is boring filler

You’d still be draining a full minute off the clock if you ran the ball in that situation....removing the time needed for a comeback.

Delete this and any account you’ve ever had.

Whatever. LT might not be the sharpest guy, but he had every right to be pissed after the Pats danced on the logo at 50 after the game. Fucking asshole cheaters. LT should’ve picked up Ellis Hobbs and snapped him in half over his knee.

Point taken.

Just as an FYI, it is absolutely pissing rain in SoCal. When it rains here, it’s like the world’s about to end, which is why we have all these giant concrete channels to carry the rain into the ocean: there’s not enough room to store it in the places near where people actually live.

Chardee MacDennis isn’t top 5?!

I’ve met some (male) cops who are 5'8" or less. If they know any martial arts, this can be an advantage.

You don’t need to be much taller than someone to appear to “tower over” them if you are built like an NFL linebacker.

There’s a video. He looks quite a bit taller than the guy cuffing him. Not saying you’re completely wrong about the “scary black man” effect, but he is a 6'3" and about 250 pounds. He towers over most adult men.

I’m of a similar height and have met many male cops that could plausibly say I “towered over them”--say, 5'8" or less? Of course, I’ve also never threatened one, so it hasn’t really come up.

The tape on this kid is amazing.

He could have walked away. He was in zero danger.

I wasn’t ever really interested in The Roddenberry Vault until now. I think io9 should get a commission.
