“...(long suffering) fans in the Bronx...”

Do people understand that college is optional?? You don’t NEED to go to college. I don’t go buy a giant house and then ask the gov’t to pay it off for me because I cant afford my mortgage payment, or buy a Ferrari and than get angry that I now have a car payment getting in the way. There are plenty of jobs and…

Title: “Why your passport is one of four colors”

If the federal government put a lower cap on the amount a student could borrow, and actually enforced predatory lending habits of private entities, you’d see an immediate correlation in tuition drop. However...the federal government also makes an enormous amount of $$ by funding student loans, so they have zero…

Not speaking about the specific program mentioned in this article, just on universal loan forgiveness that a lot of my peers are always begging for:

For some reason a lot of people think that any college debt is worth it. They get really expensive degrees (if they finish at all) and don’t use them, or a much cheaper school would have been just as good. That mentality is the first thing that needs to change.

Not every organization on the planet feels obligated to treat its relations with its workers as a zero-sum game. In fact, some of them give a basic level of respect to their employees such that if a policy is clearly counterproductive to the entire organization, it’s just eliminated instead of used as a cudgel to…

To be fair, the Yankees have shown a willingness to change their minds about honoring certain historic numbers. Just ask Alex Rodriguez.

DAMN

heh

Yes the reception there would be very jarring because those San Francisco fans sure did show the rest of the NFL how to be accepting of a human rights stance by an athlete.

I hear Phil Simms might be available

While I’m 100% behind this (you could sub out “Tony Romo” with “a tape loop of garbled subway announcements” and I would be 100% behind this), isn’t replacing your top guy with a total amateur, as opposed to one of the multiple qualified and experienced commentators you already employ, a bit of a concession that this…

The point is the refs ruined the game. It was a shit game. I don’t care who won because I care exactly zero about either team. The game was not enjoyable to watch and that is what I’m getting at.

I blame Common Core

“I am resigning from this job because of an interview I gave to a documentary that details actions that were fully known to Southwestern Christian University when they hired me.”

Let’s be real here.

That makes sense. While I sympathize with the players, and couldn’t give less of a shit whether the owners are compensated, a large part of me does not want to see the IOC have professional athletes gifted to them so they can just make shitloads more money that they’re only going to keep.

Good for the NHL. The Olympic Committees aren’t a whole lot better than FIFA. Put the Winter Olympics in the Southern Hemisphere and hold them in July.

I’d like to use this opportunity to shit on NHL owners, but interrupting the middle of the season for the Olympics every four years really does suck and there aren’t really any ways to make it not. If they didn’t put basketball in the summer games, the NBA would be doing the same thing. But I’m a shitty American who…
