I was going to say, doesn’t Venezuela need to score 10 goals to everyone of Argentina’s to equal a tie, but you’ve made the point more succinctly. Nice work, Joey_Barton.

In the geographical area covered by the Pac-12 and particularly in California, an Alabamans testicles are only worth a half. Verdict: appropriate.

Sadly, I think you are wrong. I think that hate is just a much stronger motivator than anything else (i.e., logic, love, rational governance theory, economics, compassion for your fellow man, etc.)

I find it unseemly to dance on the graves of your opponents, but what the hell, I’ve got 3 daughters:

With all due respect, I think you might be painting with too broad a brush as well. There are plenty of impoverished, high-crime areas of the country that are overwhelmingly white and yet police still arrest a disproportionately high number of African-Americans. Case in point: Delaware County, IN, meth capitol of…

And you, good sir or madam, are a rhetorical titan.

Your experiences are belied by the experiences of many others. The statistics demonstrate that our criminal justice system handles interactions with people of color than it does whites. The only possible conclusions that can be logically drawn from those statistics is either (1) people of color are inherently criminal…

What a fucking reductionist argument: unless you are being actively oppressed, you can not complain about oppression. I’m as white as white gets and I have the right and obligation to protest when I see injustice, even when that injustice is directed against others. Finebaum’s logic is why the Nazi’s got away with the…

While I have no proof this is true, I’m firmly of the belief that most fund managers are privy to illegal inside information. That information is shared with only a select few of their clients and used to grease the palms for more inside information. If you can become one of those “select few” clients, having your…

In 2001, “support the troops” became “worship the military” AND “criticism of the war = treason”.

“it’s been extraordinary to see so many people reveal themselves as unsophisticated thinkers”

Yes, we’re at that point and we have no one to blame but ourselves. Fuck us all (except Travis Rudolph, who gets at least a one-day pass).

That was supposed to include this image:

In his defense, his last job at Area 51 was very stressful.

My sweeping generalizations apply to all women’s teams and all men’s teams, not the U.S. teams.

I took her side during the Brianna Scurry imbroglio in 2007, but given subsequent events, it turns out Solo is just kind of a dumb, crappy person. She stands out because, by and large, women soccer players seem to care more about promoting their sport (which needs it) than the men do theirs (which only needs it in the…

A lot of comments seem to take the opinion that Persky must be either:

It’s one of about 3 reasons to have kids (for the record: (1) fulfill your destiny of propagating your genes; (2) give your wife’s life meaning; and (3) eat kids’ food that tastes great. The last one also covers: PB&J sandwiches, Tater Tots, Missile popsicles, hot dogs not at a bbq or ballpark).

I refuse to try S’mores-flavored anything, but otherwise, I’m pretty satisfied by this list. Nice work, Haisley.

Jesus, if the Trump campaign is embracing the pitch of “Vote for Trump because at least he’ll live”, they really have abandoned all pretense that Trump would make a good President.
