our hockey teams now feature a bunch of people of whom you’ve never heard (for the men) or a singular competitive rival against whom it’s hard to generate much animus (for the women).

Mike Pence looks like one of the guys that chased the Von Trapp family into the alps.

Wow you actually did what he jokingly said someone would do.

Ending his Facebook post with “Yes I said it” not only showed how strong Smith’s convictions were, it also proved that he has to sound out everything he writes.

So race targeting by police is worldwide?

Yeah, I think owning one of the most valuable sports franchises on earth is the largest part of his power and influence. I think, for as successful as the Patriots have been in the last decade, that the Cowboys really are the signature team of the NFL. He’s also one of the five or six longest-tenured owners in the NFL.

Yeah, this is about Elliot, his TRO decision is today, and this stood out as the most ridiculous of all the inconsistencies from the NFL.

I think it’s more like the “Oh shit, we’re getting sued over the Ezekiel Elliott suspension, we better try to clean up our history of arbitrary punishment and selective enforcement” move. Another 700 or so altered or extended suspensions and that should do it.

This is progress. Usually Cleveland police protest browns by shooting them.

When the dissenting view is your LEAD investigator, aka the person in charge of the investigation, and that person is then prevented from even speaking to the guy who decides on the suspension.... that’s a fucking broken process. This isn’t a “ten people in a room, and one or two disagreed with the majority” situation.

There’s only one way the NFL can repair it’s reputation now: By suspending Tom Brady for the entirety of the 2017 season.

And, more importantly, they change their plays based on their own players strengths. Garoppolo and Brisset ran different offenses than Brady. Because their coaches aren’t idiots.

Wait until Phil Jackson gets a gig in the NFL.

Ah, yes. The old “Well, I’ve run out of support for my argument, so what have you done personally?” A real winner in any disagreement.

Velocipedes. What a fantastic word. I am going to visit a non-motorized conveyance establishment on the morrow so I can request their salesman to produce with much haste their finest and most opulent velocipedes.

And that’s why you can never be Royals.

police were called after Duffy fell asleep in his car in a Burger King drive-through.

The guy is just a dramatic pussy. Not even hurt bad enough to have a trainer there, and he’s acting like his leg just got blown off by an landline.

“Um...sort of.”

What really bothers me is that no one seems to get (or deliberately ignores) that the Nazi Party didn’t just come to power and then boom, instant Holocaust. Any time you point out the disturbing parallels on our current path some apologist, either rightwing or left, will invariably say “how dare you, it’s not like…
