So the Steelers should just let him go and spend their money elsewhere. Also, NFL contracts are structured as three guaranteed years, with team options for years four and five and minimal cap accelerations if a player is cut after year three, so they’re basically saying they don’t think Bell would be worthwhile for…

What Bell wants is an appropriately valued salary AND job security. The Steelers want Bell’s production, but, for the various reasons you stated, aren’t willing to give him the money or contract length he desires. That’s fine.

I don’t even know if it’s a Bible thing more than him not willing to commit perjury for Jordan. Like, he’s willing to lie and be a cretin to the public, but he’s not willing to commit a crime and possibly go to jail for him. They’re all cowards in addition to being hypocrites.

Baseball is in a min/max era like how people play video games, e.g. the many different shifts that occur every game. If there was a way to concede the game without getting a ton of backlash, they would do it. Bullpen arms are a limited resource, why waste it in a futile effort?

It’s a step too far. Why do they care what you do with your discounted food? Would they care if I bought discounted food every day and promptly threw my meal in the trash? No, because they already sold it to me. If they’re worried about someone buying discounted food for their entire family of eight, then they can…

Did you not read the article? Match fixing occurs at a very specific confluence of events. The player/team has to be good enough in their respective sport that people are placing wagers on them, their earnings must be low enough that the bribe is worth the potential permanent ban from their sport, and their relative…

You’re operating on a faulty premise of your own creation. Nobody is asking you to distrust all people. Wanting to see the best in everyone is not mutually exclusive to understanding there are a lot of shitty people in this world.

Yes, God help us all. That’s what Untitled was snarkily saying in his OP. If you’ve led a life that allows you to believe in your “maybes” then you’ve been lucky so far. I don’t know you, where you’ve lived, where you work, or anything about you so I won’t speak for you, but in my experiences, the average person is…

Most human beings are selfish, ignorant assholes. That isn’t me being particularly pessimistic, either. I’ve lived for 36 years and I can comfortably say more than 50% of the human beings I’ve interacted with aren’t worth another second of my time. Most people suck.

The theoretical amount of soda you could drink should be (amount of time the restaurant is open) x (dispensing rate of soda gun) but in reality, it’s (two full glasses) + (2 oz. x remaining number of hours open). One is the true definition of unlimited, the other is corporate bullshit.

Or, you know, “se queda.”

This needs more stars.

The problem with this brand of enforcement is trying to define what makes a woman a woman. We talk about “freakish” athletes all the time when referring to people like LeBron, Phelps, Bolt, etc. Yet with Caster, instead of just saying she’s a freakish woman, they’re saying she’s not a woman at all. I’m sure plenty of…

Nevin shouldn’t be saying anything to opposing coaches unless Boone was in agreement, and it doesn’t seem like that was the case. Cora telling him to go back to his little box is pretty amusing.

Because for most of us, say, 99% of us, at some point in our early years, we got yelled at like that and had to accept it (or actually do the research to prove 1+2=2) or eat shit. Donny boy and all the other douche fund babies had the privilege of not accepting it AND not eating shit because daddy’s money would…

They should ID anyone bringing in a glove and confiscate it if the person is over 18.

To be fair to Chelsea fans, Dele Alli is a cunt.

The basketball thing is as ridiculous as the baseball one, because it is about “respect.” The reason there are uncontested kneel downs in football is to reduce chance of injuries.

I don’t disagree with you on my initial thought. Spent two minutes on BBRef and he’s 99th in career PER, 82nd in career Win Shares, and 47th in career VORP. A google result of total NBA players found an article that stated there’s been about 3,000 players from ‘65-’14 (50 years), so add a few more since the NBA began…

I’m sure Tammy Loren is licking her chops right now.
