I have hated this unctuous bastard forever. He was bad enough announcing professional sports, but once he started on college games, with his shameless attempts to channel Keith Jackson’s folksiness, I actively avoided them. I had to listen to the Rose Bowl on radio forever. Fuck Brent Musburger; he’s horrible.

That poor kid has some severe looking structural issues, even assuming he grows into his height over the next couple of years. His neck is messed up, his shoulders are really narrow, and the way he runs, it looks like his hips or knees are already fucked up. I’m not a doctor and I really hope I’m wrong on this, but…

“the Clippers might be screwed”??? Without Chris Paul, the Clippers are basically the Magic. They are sooooo screwed.

It’s okay; I’m sure your family still loves you despite their continual disappointment in you. That’s what families do.

I watched Willie Mac’s last home game. He hit a triple in his last AB. Fuckin’ Willie Mac.

What a fucking idiot. “I just want to say how sorry I am about the victims of gun violence, but I have absolutely no intention of doing even the simplest thing to prevent it.”

Yes, truthfully: we need to put bears trained to be good into all our K-12 classrooms. That is the only solution to bear on student crime.

No, you misunderstand or misrepresent my logic. You also are conflating armed insurrection with state rebellion. An individual or a group fighting against an oppressor over an issue of oppression is different than a political or governing unit fighting against the state to which they are a constituent part over…

Yet another reason the whole NCAA needs to be scrapped.

He swore an oath to defend the U.S. constitution and the United States, not Virginia. Virginia’s attempted secession from the U.S. was unconstitutional and illegal, therefore they were in open rebellion against the nation to which he had sworn fealty. That is treason under any definition.

The winners write the history. As such, the southern states unconstitutionally attempted to leave the union and took up arms against the rest of the country. Ergo, traitors.

Let’s be clear: a complete reversal of the Tam case, leaving the “disparagement” prohibition of Section 2(a), will still leave lots of room for interpretation. Grey area is inherent in statutory construction.

I’m assuming the last 15 minutes was when the penny dropped for the Democrats that Comey was aware of the Trump/Russian dossier investigation at about the same time as he was publicly dangling HRC over the cliff of the Weiner emails, but Comey said nothing about Trump. This boggles the mind.

This is the beginning of a much more important discussion than NFL matters, but one of the primary reasons to have a state income tax is to provide funding for state services. If you can’t afford to educate your citizens, maybe you need to have a state income tax, Nevada.

I have no problem remembering Robert E. Lee as a great general in the history books and as an example of grace in the face of defeat. But he is, first and foremost, a traitor who took up arms against his country in defense of slavery (yes, I know he put it as “defending my home, Virginia”, but the only reason - the…

Way back when Letterman had a show on NBC, he had a recurring sketch about the NBC bookmobile, featuring books with humorously topical titles. My dad was never a really big Letterman fan (a Carson guy, all the way), but he always referenced one of their bits as one of his favorite jokes. It was right after the…

I don’t think the conservative powers-that-be really fear Trump’s irrationality. Trump says shit, it generates a bunch of “bad” publicity, the media and the electorate focus on the spectacle, then something new comes along and Trump says shit, that generates a bunch of “bad” publicity, lather, rinse, repeat. …

Honest question: how bad is L.A.’s football attendance historically? It was my sense that the Rams drew fairly well until they moved to Anaheim and began to perennially suck. One problem they and the Raiders faced was never being able to sell-out the Coliseum, but I thought that was just because it was huge.

As much as Iceland and Wales were a delight during the Euros, there were a shitload of boring games, primarily due to previously unqualified teams playing poorly against far superior teams that were giving half-effort in order to save themselves. But the drop-off between top tier European football nations and lower…

I’m an advanced stat guy, but I want a small Hall. The Pro Football HOF should be the model, not the Rock ‘n Roll HOF.
