This whole article did not age well.

They didn’t dust off hard enough. Artful writing, but the dated references start in paragraph 5.

Nah. I want to see the player himself go through the legs, not just the ball. Waiting for IT to get healthy.

“once got run over by Vince Wilfork and Jonathan Vilma” — that should be his twitter bio. Another thing Moore has in common with Trump, he hires “only the best people” 

Yup. You should check out the video of Ta Nehisi Coates I linked if you haven’t already. Really worth the few minutes. He makes your same point although in a slightly different way.

Back in middle school we were taught to set the context, build tension with conflict, built to the climax, then denouement. And avoid the deus ex machina. Seriously, that’s what we were taught in the late 70s (right when Star Wars was first released!)

Basically, white people not being able to use the n word is a tiny peek into the world of black people, who are constantly seeing places they can’t go and things they can’t do.

‘I don’t care who. I cannot let anyone disrespect my family like that’. @Enes_Kanter on LeBron

This is like a MAJOR revelation about Betts. I mean, we all knew he was a lights out bowler, but the bald spot, oh, my God! Stick to sports that require you to keep your head covered!

Patriots bandwagon seems to have a lot of room on it.

I’m just gonna sit back and wait for a better explanation than this...

I was one of those people who made that assumption. The call for tips on CK really turned me off and I made assumptions from there. Sorry.

As he acknowledged, asking permission with this kind of power imbalance is wrong. Also, propositioning someone in that way is itself harassment.

More like lazy. Contrast with NY Times who got the scoop by actually calling people and doing journalism instead of “hey, email me your tips.” Gawker sites are good for a laugh. NYT, New Yorker, and WaPo (amazing reporting on the Roy Moore story) do real journalism. This has nothing to do with condoning sexual…

Did Joseph ask Mary to her hand on his dick? I must have missed that part of the Bible.

Is your good friend about to get a six year term in the United States Senate?

Fair. I changed my mind halfway through. Should have edited. But seriously, don’t put these things in plain sight. They are ugly.

Counterpoint: having random stuff pegged to the wall looks horrible, whereas storing things in drawers is neat, tidy, and out of the way. So most of these solutions are not great for me.
