Endowments aren’t a good measure of ability to pay your workers. And endowment is a one time amount of money. The earnings on the endowment CORPUS can be used for recurring expenses - thus building up an endowment would lead to increased operating availability. You wouldn’t give a recurring raise from funds if…

Making the playoffs is still pretty good, no?

Vibrating beds do exist. I stayed in a lot of motels in my youth on family trips and some of the rooms had some. I think they exist solely for little kids to play on - not for sexy time.

It means, like John Boehner, he’s trying to walk the tightrope of keeping his job. A job that allows him to do absolutely nothing because he can’t control his factions to pass any sort of policy or law. Then they can blame the President (Obama, and then Clinton), that the President (in charge of executing the law)…

He didn’t explain America. America only works in Hot Takes! Hot take!!!!!!

If this happened the way the police say, then releasing the tape would validate them and help with public trust. If it didn’t it looks worse for them. So, the public should immediately assume that the tape doesn’t validate their version of events. That is the only logical assumption. I get it, being a police officer…

The spiked hair mullet sure is classy

But who killed Adena Watson?

Not shocked at all. I would never donate to a campus for these reasons - they simply don’t need the money. Every big campus I go to for work is always building - luxury dorms, luxury student unions, football stadiums, etc. Yes, schools do need more money on paying their grad students some living wage; hiring real…

This should work. The legislature typically breaks in odd years (long session) for the ACC and NCAA Basketball Tournaments and runs either skeleton sessions (perfunctory sessions where no business is taken up) or just adjourns for a couple days. This is especially true when events are in Raleigh or Greensboro. These…

Love the fullback position and don’t know why more teams don’t use it. There’s been an argument that the talent isn’t there (traditional fullbacks are moved more to LB’s and such early in their highschool/college development). But, I think a good fullback that can block, run, and catch adds a dimension that is hard to…

He’s a second year QB!!!! HOT TAKE!

I was on record (in an earlier post on Deadspin) as saying Goff wasn’t the best QB in the draft. Of course, I’ve said a lot of other things on Kinga that are terrible and wrong. But, who’s counting?

Sand People. They can travel in packs to hide their numbers.

In general, I loved the West Coast for being able to watch football over breakfast. The problem came when I needed a bar too (when I was visiting) and had to wait at a place with no TV till Cascade Barrel house opened.

CLOWNEY IS NOT A BUST! GO GAMECOCKS!

I’m not criticizing him at all (if it sounds like I am). I would be maxing out my paychecks too! But London has Fallen/Olympus has Fallen, Ben Hur, Last Knights, etc....

I think there needs to also be a comparison of pro facilities and college ones. My alma mater just spent millions creating a new indoor practice facility and renovating the locker and weight rooms (locker and weight rooms were just constructed 10 years ago - and now there’s talk of just tearing them down because they…

Spot on about DC Libertarians. And all libertarians. Every single libertarian I know works either for government or a government contractor. Do they cut themselves at night as the weep in front of the mirror? God I hate DC.

I just love how Morgan Freeman is in dreadlocks in the movie. I really wish he’d say, “Check Please” after every line. I love some Freeman, but he has been mailing it in of late. Anyone see the movie he made with Clive Owen (shamefully watched when I had the flu). Ouch.
