Mad respect for the response. And as other comments points out, the implication was discernible. Just that the content didn’t address the headline at all, which was a bit jarring.

I’m calling the entire thing fake right now before it inevitably comes out that this is a hoax (should anyone care enough to bother with getting to the bottom of this). I’m not accusing the player of making it up himself, but whoever typed this is just some troll looking to create controversy, and is definitely not an…

The fuck is up with that headline?

Lemme give you some perspective here. I’m married to a woman who’s half Lithuanian and half Ukrainian. Both of these countries’ populations were subjected to horrifying atrocities by the Soviets in their “Russian Imperialism: New Management, New Logo, Same Great Taste” guise. (My mother-in-law is deaf because of…

You can’t actually see the hand shake. And Mayfield does seem to wiggle his hands a bit at the end. It could easily be a hand slap rather than an actual shake.

I watched the game last week and can tell you why. 

This is also what the Raiders did last year - and they got their ass beat to a pulp by the Seahawks. Gruden flew earlier this year specifically to avoid the same thing happening

The Raiders went to London right after their game on Sunday, and had all week to acclimate to the time zone change. The Bears didn’t arrive until Friday night. The Bears looked exhausted during that game, and I have to think that jet lag had a lot to do with it. It’s like none of the Bears coaching staff has ever…

In a salary capped league, it doesn’t matter that Jones could pay it many times over, because player salaries become a zero-sum game. If he gives Elliot more than he’s worth, he can’t give that money to someone else. So the team as a whole gets worse, or he has to underpay someone else.

2. I no longer watch SportsCenter.

Yeah, this issue came up on the Salty Waitress column over on the Takeout a couple weeks ago.

Speaking as pro-employee, restaurants should integrate the costs of employee health insurance into their pricing. Restaurants who insist on this surcharge are, as you say, just passive-aggressively complaining about…

I’m with Darren here. I’ve seen a few restaurants pull this bullshit- there’s a chicken place in California that has a “California cost of business fee”.

I strongly, strongly recommend clicking through and watching him get torn to tiny little brand-humping shreds in the replies.

Let’s be sure to heap the appropriate scorn on the restaurant owner here. He put that as a line item to make people angry that they have to pay for other people’s Obamacare.

No, it’s insane to think that murderers and rapists make good choices.

The world is laughing at you,, HA HA HA loser

the current media zeitgeist is to elevate and highlight any white on black crime that may or may not have happened. Even though the facts say that black on white crimes are considerably way more abundant and often more deadly. Yet, the media continues to salivate for these relatively rare occurrences and the more high…

Is this comment in “ebonics”?

Oh yeah,that kid from Covington,KY. The teenager who was threatened and vilified for LITERALLY DOING Nothing......(BLACK TEARS MATTER)

No, it actually doesn’t. That’s why these hoaxes keep happening.
