OKC absolutely could’ve kept their stars, they cheaped out and chose not to. They needed $5 million or so more to keep james Harden, and chose not to. Then added that salary (for shittier players) the next season. That stupidity led to Durant saying screw you guys you’re idiots and I want a title.

While he was literally just mailed a bomb, so I’d say his livelihood is being threatened lol

Could Soros sue Fox for slander, or are they protected somehow by “only asking questions” ? Money isn’t a problem for him, why doesn’t he make using his name this way no longer financially viable?

Kaep had a better yards per game, attempt, completion %, TD/INT ratio, INT%, rushing yards per game only favour Vick by 9 (42-33), and yards per rush are 7.1 (Vick) to 6.1 (Kaep). By every passing metric, Kaepernick was the better QB. By rushing metrics, Vick is slightly better. Kaepernick overall was a much better…

Counter counterpoint: Mike Vick was in prison for two years and came back to play 5 more. And was never as good as Kaep. Prison is more acceptable than bringing attention to police brutality.

Counter-point: Derek Anderson is starting for the Bills. Since 2010, he has thrown less than 200 total passes, and has always been bad. The only way Kaepernick loses his collusion case is if the judge is a racist shit-heel himself, because 31 year old Kaep would be a top 25 starter easy. 

C) those questions won’t drive ratings, sell papers etc.

Going for two was the right call, and I think the author agrees. It’s throwing a pass that was dumb. You need two yards and have only a small area to move players around, and know your QB will likely face pressure and have little time to throw or develop a play. You also have a battering ram RB in Henry. Running…

Don’t lie to the league. Beat your wife/GF, get into fights, assault kids, cheat to win. But don’t lie to the league, that’s their #1 deadly sin.

+1 star for good Art

Keenum wasn’t good last year either, Diggs/Thielen and Rudolph were. He’s decent at avoiding a pass rush, but his WR were both top 10 in the league in contested catches. He consistently threw terrible, wobbly, off-target passes that Diggs and Thielen hauled in anyways. You’d think a front office would have watched…

Question then- how many reasonable people are actually bothered by the situation and would have an opinion swayed either way based on this?

But will it neuter anything? He’ll likely just say it’s fake news and she paid some quack professor who thinks he’s smarter than everyone from his fancy elite ivory tower to say things to appease the left. Libs owned or something. 

Lmao i know right! Like that one doesn’t even require that second stage of thought- who the f**k do you think “the machine” is?!?!

The majority of “fans” of anything- music, sports etc don’t delve beyond “this sounds cool” or “this looks cool”. If you only ever listen to Evenflow and Yellow Ledbetter and mumble along because they sound fun, it’s easy to miss any message. People don’t want to think. It’s why false information is so easy t0 spread…

I totally get all the business reasons to hold him back (as well as lack of investment in big ways). But as a fan I’ll always default to it’s not my money, and the job of a sports team is/should be to win as many games and championships as possible. I’m very much of the opinion that franchises should be treated like…

Toronto absolutely can afford him, they (May) choose not to. Toronto is one of the 5 largest markets in baseball, and that doesn’t count them being the only team in the entire country. Their owners are worth billions, and ticket prices have more than doubled in the past 5 years, while the team proved again if you…

Except for the “capitalists” who are losing the battle (such as coal barrons) and being propped up to the detriment of the planet, tax payers and cleaner energy companies. 

No.
