You really should try smoking weed though, it’s great.

Or try rooting for the Bulls, who while actively tanking, managed to beat the Wizards and the Magic last weekend.

For years I’ve struggled to describe how forceful, how heavy, Scarface sounds when he drops in on Betrayal (“He on a mission to become a ballplayer..’). Calling him an Old Testament god is just about perfect. Thanks.

Maybe this is changing the subject, but I’m curious about the author’s thoughts when broadened to include people who are neither white nor black. Like, can black people be racist towards Asian people for instance?

You have that exactly backwards. Heinlein’s book is a mess, fascist and poorly written. Verhoeven’s movie on the other hand is one of the best scifi movies ever made.

Is it fair to say that Juve are the more talented team though? Harry Kane is the best player on either team. Higuain would be second and then I’d call Dybala and Alli a wash.

You’d think you would have checked the box score before making a snarky comment?

This is a bad blog.

Wait a second, is Clayton suggesting that Ratatouille is Pixar’s best film? That is a searing hot take.

This is incredible beautiful. Great job.

These people should both be sterilized for the good of the species.

This is a very bad movie which completely wastes an insanely good cast.

Wages as a percentage of baseball revenues have actually been going down for a decade now. If anything players are significantly underpaid. The problem is that there is no comprehensive revenue sharing agreement and no minimum salary floor for teams. For frame of reference, in the NBA player salaries are tagged to…

The Song of Ice and Fire isn’t the battle between the walkers and the living, Jon is the song. Half Stark, half Targaryen, ice and fire. The whole thing is his story. He (and Daenerys) almost certainly die.

The soft salary cap/luxury tax needs to be paired with a hard salary floor. You do 100% revenue sharing between teams, paired with a salary floor pegged to, say, 55% of revenue. Everyone is on basically the same footing.

I think it’s John Wall’s destiny to play with his boy Cousins. How about a trade? Wall & Oubre to the Pelicans in exchange for Davis?

Only if your understanding of unions is limited to labor-intensive manufacturing. The real failure of the labor movement in this country is allowing the perception to develop that unions are only for “blue collar” workers. To have a real labor movement we need to organize everyone from account executives at ad…

Same.

Spot on. We should be like Finland, where everyone’s tax return is a public record.

I don’t really get all the gushing over Jimmy G’s performance. I know the team won a few games, but his individual numbers are virtually identical to what Kaepernick did last season.
