I don’t mind the premise of ballplayers being more like creatives in terms of their labor. What’s really amazing is to me is that we pay them so poorly as a matter of course. Only in America can you say with a straight face, “Our most talented young people: are we sufficiently impoverishing them?”

Yeah. Fucking autocorrect

I am a lifelong Warrior fan. I have suffered through a conga-line of indignities over the year. While I have enjoyed the past two seasons mightily. I have alwaysknown that this would all come crashing down one day because Joe Lacob is a self important boob, and will never, ever pass up a moment to steal credit,…

I was AMPED up to hate the Mission Rock project (and I hate nearly every proposed development) and then there I was, reading the proposal and going “Jeesh, this is actually kinda reasonable...and they are asking for voter approval and everything...and it’s 1/3 designated affordable...Aw fuck, I’m gonna vote for…

That package of tax/services breaks and land, at the heart of this minimally informed blog-gripe, was put to the voters in 1996.

Zzzzzzzz...

You spend half your afternoon denigrating all religious people everywhere because you think they’re unworthy of your respect and then you throw up your hands and go “What? What?! Who? ME?”

Step 1) Hurl insults
