People say this as if small market teams are run by some Mom & Pop operation on a shoestring budget. Bottom line: there are 30 MLB teams and 585 billionaires in the US alone. If you can’t make it work and stay competitive without creating an artificial means of wage suppression, sell your team to a billionaire who…
i grow tired of the boras soap opera. i totally think that players should max out their value, but he can be such a little bitch about getting his guys paid.
Drew is a (PERHAPS LOUD) voice of sanity in an increasingly insane world. I’ve had the pleasure of reading and listening to his material for over a decade now and I’d be lying if I didn’t say his style of humor influenced my own. Having had the pleasure to meet him a couple times he’s exactly as irreverent yet sincere …
“I used to define integrity as doing the right thing...”
Wasn’t this the dude who called hookers from his work phone?
Add four more Cy Young candidate-caliber seasons to Dave Stieb’s résumé and he’d be, I don’t know, Steve Carlton
Considering that Liberty president Jerry Falwell Jr is one of President Cheetohead’s biggest evangelical supporters, it’s no surprise that Liberty would pick a football coach that does not match the school’s supposed values.
I’m a Virginia graduate and I have straight up written a note with my occasional tiny athletic donation that says I will not contribute to any program that schedules Liberty. For some reason, we play that garbage dump of a school five times in football between now and 2030.
Brett finally gets the response he wants from a sent message. People view it and say, “What a dick!”
Don’t give me that “part of the sport” bullshit. Hitting a guy away from the play is a penalty every single time if the refs see it. Blind-siding a guy with a headshot is a suspension in every league in the world. Maybe criminally charging assholes who do this will finally drive the point home that it’s unacceptable…
“So, as you can see, porn is wrong because the Bible says...wait, you have a question sir? I see that your hand is raised.” “Yes, did you vote for Donald Trump?” “Why, yes, I did.” “Get out. Take your cherry-picked scraps of nothing pseudo-science and get the hell out.”
Cute generalization, but if you hung around a while you’d know that feminists are quite divided on the subject of porn, and have been for a long, long time. It’s not hypocrisy, it’s more than one voice.
Did you read the article at all? This wasn’t some porn star telling kids how awesome her profession was. It sounds like, by all accounts, it was a super healthy and frank talk that even discussed the pitfalls of viewing porn as reality. What progressives have an issue with is the conservative answer of simply plugging…
Funny how these conservatives are against anyone else having sex, but somehow they keep cranking out babies.
These people elected Donald Trump as their leader. They have no credibility as any moral authority forever and ever, amen.
Reading Drew defend We Built This City is weird. I was afraid I stumbled onto Slate by accident because defending We Built This City is some weapons-grade performative contrarianism. The song just sucks.
If what Gary Bettman got put into last night was the NHL Hall of Fame, I think that argument would have more merit. That said, I don’t really know that it’s necessary to put executives and owners into sports halls of fame outside of particularly exceptional cases. It would be impossible to tell the story of Major…
Serious question for the New Yorkers in the audience:
