It’s Buffalo and upstate NY mate. You don’t have to stretch too hard for the reason. The same fans backing this move probably wanted a “pocket passer” like Glennon in the offseason

I’m still gonna call it that

Plenty of folks call it the DMV, especially folks that used to live here but have since moved to MD or VA. I call DC the city, the District and the region, the DMV.

The walk away while the ball is still rolling is the bat flip of the bowling world.

Mookie’s got some big balls to compete in that tourny.

Okay but the Packers cut him instead of placing him on IR, despite his assertions that they knew about his shoulder injury when they signed him. So they were using their much more powerful leverage as a gigantic franchise to try and keep their employee from getting proper compensation. That’s like if you tell your…

The organization has no moral high ground. They only wanted to save money, nothing else.

> I’m not willing to risk further damage to my shoulder for a 3rd place team without its star QB, but I am willing to do so for a chance to win a super bowl with Tom Brady

You say that like it’s a bad thing. Seems perfectly reasonable to me

As someone who has played football at the collegiate level (D-III, fight me whatevs), suffered a torn rotator cuff the second day of camp, and gone on to start on the scout team all year...yes, you can play through this injury even though it’s an injury that will likely require surgery.

Translation: “I’m not willing to risk further damage to my shoulder for a 3rd place team without its star QB, but I am willing to do so for a chance to win a super bowl with Tom Brady.”

1) Contact your Member of Congress several months in advance. They can set you up with private (after hours) tours of the Capitol and potentially the West Wing too. Both very cool experiences not matter your political affiliation. They can also get you inauguration tickets so start planing ahead for 2021.

Do not try to drive downtown. Good lord, if you are going downtown or anywhere near a Metro station, take the Metro. I had friends who talked about “driving down to the Mall” in all seriousness like it was nbd, and I made the world’s biggest horrified face at them. The Metro has had a lot of bad press lately, but…

If you’re going for more than a day, get a WMATA Smartrip card. It’s reloadable and works for Metro and the buses. While the District is small, the DMV around the District is on par with all 5 boroughs of New York City.

The DC metro is really deep underground. Like really deep. We have some of the longest escalators in the world. That being said, DC residents really stick to the right-left lane rule on them: stand on the right, walk on the left.

I love the simpering, pro-management way in which Schefter delivered the news, but he has always seemed to be an unctuous company man.

Obama sold us out to the insurance and health system lobbies

To put it more compactly: if you change Obamacare’s name to Trumpcare but leave the rest of the program exactly the same, Trump’s poorly informed, cult of personality supporters will immediately reverse course and declare it the best thing ever.

President Obama’s “health care for all” law was officially called the “Affordable Care Act” but has been nicknamed Obamacare in honor of its champion.

He attempted to eliminate paid police details for traffic flagging duty. MA is the only state that pays police to do this.
