I feel about this the same way about pitchers using a little bit of pine tar to keep a better grip on their balls in particularly cold or humid weather. It's technically illegal, but it's so universally done and offers such a negligible benefit that it should be legal. And it is de facto allowed, except when some…

Roger's follies have honestly made it so I can't even watch football without thinking of all of the sport's inherent flaws and surrounding issues. So, in short, he has made me a more critical thinker about the game I love so much. I can't just turn my brain off and watch anymore.

Someone definitely needs to explain this. I mean, who buys an NFC Championship photo collage?

"It's Garropolo's fault, and I recommend he receive a lifetime ban."

Am I crazy to think maybe the NFL should listen to it's QBs and lower the required psi for a game ball? Wouldn't a ball that is a little easier to throw and catch better for the game? And I mean, it's not like the AFC Championship looked like another sport or something, so we're not making some radical change here.

The happiest team about all of this nonsense? The Colts. No one's talking about how badly they shit the bed Sunday night, or how timidly and poorly Pagano coached them.

in 10 years of cycling in NYC I've been doored, had a bike stolen, blown out tires thanks to potholes and have been hit by a cab (I was on foot for that one). Now I just roll around town in a huge inflatable hamster wheel.

Prosecutors remain baffled at the fact that of all the people surveyed, they can't seem to find a Patriots fan who began following the team before 2001.

"Sorry, I thought you were black."

I find myself jealous of some people's ability to imagine the future and illustrate it.

While Boston will be celebrating tonight[...]

I think that is a bit reductive.

Poor Christie got Robert Kraft'd in that gif.

For reference, here's the one vs. the Saints. There's no way last night's was better.

Thanks for your reply. I absolutely agree that people can get exposure if they want it. Serial isn't the only place to hear about the shortcomings of our justice system and I don't think that was the draw. I already knew how testimonies could be influenced or how evidence could be manipulated but it still was very…

Yeah, so, you are missing the biggest point of it all. The average person doesn't get exposure to a case like this for more than a short segment on the news or a bastardized version on law and order. This podcast was interesting because it delved deep into a case that seemed rather ordinary on paper. It showed…

9a. Thou shalt not have a "Press Start to Continue" splash screen before thine menu. It serveth no purpose, and doth only make thine game seem like a port performed with no effort. Taketh some pride in thine work and enact it correctly.

This just doesn't sound like something the Patriots would do.
