I believe it is the racial makeup of our program, because we don’t look like other programs in the league and we are treated differently.

There are likely many reasons. I think the biggest one is kickers miss field goals... it’s a skill and sometimes the game is just off. What Montgomery did was a judgment call, for which a teammate immediately implied was out of spite.

Once, in college, I had to rush my next-door-neighbor to the emergency room when she sneezed so hard, her eye literally popped out of the socket.

That is an incorrect interpretation of the law. You should source another employment attorney if you’d like a secondary confirmation.

You have to remember the tough guy who is writing this... that’s what you’re working with for perspective.

Right, but per PDA & ADA, Global Elite is compliant with both laws. Although the terminology used in this blog was “suspended”, the legal definition is unpaid leave. They are within their legal rights to do so, provided they don’t have alternative assignments available (which they seem to claim was fact). They did not…

For sure... that’s Terdema Ussery Under Armour type dollars right there.

There are more details elsewhere, but I’m not sure this scenario has a great answer. If someone has a job that becomes inherently unsafe once they get pregnant, there’s a limited amount of responsibility that can be placed on the employer.

I watched this whole episode in horror and utter disbelief. I’m still not 100% convinced it wasn’t an act, but if not, she’s got some serious psychological issues.

Bruh. Ok. The pumped the HELL out of Rampage... they gave him his own vehicle in Ultimate Fighter 7 and brought him back to go against Evans in Season 10. Wayyyyyy much more promo than Weidman. Even today I bet a random Joe or casual MMA fan is much more likely to know Rampage than Weidman.

Do you all not source other Gizmodo family links? The was originally on Jez yesterday... and Crockett regularly steals from Splinter without at all referencing the previous posts. Just wondering how it all works behind the scenes.

I realize that it’s difficult for people to actually read the source articles because it delays the hot takes and might add actual context to the story (for those who care about something other than sloppy rhetoric)... but that’s exactly correct. You think Netflix is just sitting there making wild ass guesses on…

That Austin Rivers miss at :58 though. Good gawd almighty.

Doesn’t sound like either of you two actually follow the UFC or MMA. Rashad Evans, Rampage Jackson, Kimbo fucking Slice... they pumped millions into these guys. Rampage even crossed over into movies! (Hello A-Team)... more recently Jon Jones as stated, Daniel Cormier, Anthony Johnson just to name a few more. That’s…

The Root as a whole is a great site, unfortunately Damon as an author is consistently terrible. Whether it’s a post where half of it is the same tired ass white tropes, or like this nonsensical, historically inaccurate and obtuse mess, it’s a train wreck nearly every time... gotta read just to see how bad it is.  

Headline: “Republicans Control the Poorest States, Democrats Control States With Highest Earners: Report”

This exact same story was posted on Splinter on Sunday.

Abrams even had to answer questions about her credit card debt and credit score.

Well, yes it’s a stat... the truth depends though specifically what year is being referenced.

But you changed the quote...
