Anybody who has read a single goddamn story about this strike and still thinks it’s about teacher pay either doesn’t know how to read or is being willfully obtuse.

The thing that sucks about teaching (I am married to a teacher) is that it is assumed you will work for free. And they do. They are contracted for a specific number of hours per year, but everyone knows that the number of hours are insufficient for prep, professional development and instruction time. So they work a…

Dad?

Whoa whoa whoa, that’s definitely NOT sticking to sports.

> Wait, remind me again which sect of American politics supports gun violence?

I’m just going to put it out there for anybody reading this in 3 years: I’m against child molestation, and I don’t care who knows it. Fight me.

Fucking league uses “Real” on a team and wants to be apolitical. That is some stunning ignorance.

Or, MLS can continue striving for the same aggressively “apolitical” vibe of the rest of American pro sports, where no virtue is as sacred as the league’s and owners’ own greed.

I've heard of LAFC and NYCFC, but not Jesus FC. 

Not noted in the article, but NYCFC has had an ongoing fascist supporter problem for a few years now: https://www.theguardian.com/football/2019/mar/06/proud-boys-and-skinheads-mls-faces-an-incursion-from-the-far-right

*Googles “distance from St Louis to Ferguson”*

Right but I’m assuming the fortunes of Ifflewick Town FC or Dagsblood and Eelbane United don’t generally impact on who Manchester City can add from year to year. 

This story doesn’t make you out to be the hero you imagine.   

I'll take "Non-Extradition Countries" for $200

They’ve got an entire office building filled with qualified people working on how best to absolutely fuck this up. They’ve spared no expense.

Buddy, I can call Ty Cobb anything I want cause that dead mother fucker isn’t gonna do a god damn thing to stop me. He wouldn’t drive on roads paved by the Chinese. He hit Guatemalans with tire irons for fun. He tucked his weiner back at least twice a day because it made him feel alive.

Ok, Zlatan. Quit shilling your book online and figure out how to play on turf.

It’s fine and the people who complain about it are much more annoying than the thing itself.

Given, I hate Oasis and the fact that they call themselves the “Wonderwall” makes me gag, I really find myself rooting for MNUFC when we aren’t going up against them. Great new stadium, friendly and passionate fans, probably the best crest in MLS, and a solid bad-to-good story.

Because he’s always hurt?
