Conor is a prick that deserved every minute of the ass kicking Khabib gave him in the Octagon, but he didn’t deserve to get jumped and attacked after the fight was over. Those guys absolutely should face charges.

Easy, because there are millions upon millions of people in this country that are just as turdy (that’s a word now, I’m making it so).

I’ve heard people say they want to be for Evangelicals in college sports what Notre Dame is for Catholics and BYU is for Mormons.

The better question is “Why don’t other coaches/managers wear uniforms?”

The GOP loves the troops:

The lawyers know statements like that are garbage.

Nick I just wanted to add to the chorus of people thanking you for this series. Your passion for this subject matter really stands out; the kind of writing that makes the commitment to reading worth it.

Unemployment was also low in the mid-2000's.

I’ll be the hyena, you’ll see

This is some good Kinja, KinjaNinja

Incumbency matters, of course. But this has a whole lot to do with who Kobach is. If he were just another bland, generic conservative, he’d probably be favored as much as Colyer would have been.

I think to get them to expand the rosters it’s gonna take a valuable position player blowing their arm out pitching, requiring surgery and dealing a fatal blow to his team’s playoff hopes.

“Pitchers can’t protect their skulls unless their skulls have already been cracked open before” is one of baseball’s unwritten rules.

People have this dumb, lizard brain need to circle the wagons if they feel like “outsiders” are attacking one of their own. It leads to large groups of people making incredibly stubborn and ridiculous decisions that can appear baffling to everyone else not in the group.

I’m reading these comments and immediately picturing “Greg in accounting” is actually Greg Oden.

This will go on my Mount Rushmore of Times I’ve Been Owned Online

Why does this all feel like a late ‘80s/early ‘90s teen comedy about a tight-knit group of outsidery friends that face a dilemma when one member of the group gets invited to hang out with/date the cool kids and ditches his old dorky buddies, only to realize life being popular isn’t what it was made out to be, and…
