Fuck those white people. There is no need to pander to them. They either see the black players that they enjoy watching as human beings who have concerns outside the stadium, or they don’t.

DirecTV should make all customers wanting a refund to say the words “Snowflake Refund” in order to get 100% of their money back.

I get (and like) your point. However, the original post had miles to go to get to Racism 101.

By the time anyone was aware he was doing it, he had been doing it for weeks.

Great writing, for sure. I’d give you a star, but sometimes when I do that, stars get subtracted.

Anybody who does this should be locked up, because that’s what happens to regular people who work for the government and put sensitive information at risk. I know you’re (rightly) pointing out Repug hypocrisy, but the real travesty to me is that there are two sets of rules.

White people from western PA are also strangely not terrified of child molesters.

It accomplished something. It hurt the feelings of a lot of racist dickholes.

I’m pretty sure they do care and they want the killing to continue.

I hope you write at more places than Deadspin, because you do it well. Not knocking Deadspin, of course. Just saying.

Everyone got screwed because the Falcons are still alive. They should have been relegated to another league or another sport after that Super Bowl performance.

How is booing showing respect for the flag, the military, or the President, the cops, or whatever we’re supposed to be pledging allegiance to during that song? What people who booed are doing is showing that this isn’t about the anthem at all. It’s about two sides, and they’re booing people who are on the opposite…

Instead of kneeling, Kaep should have jumped into the stands to chug a beer during the anthem; he would have been seen as an American Hero.

Thank you.

Thank you.

This deserves more love.

There’s an added factor here: conservatives don’t tend to be paragons of self-discipline. Boycotts from that side don’t often gain traction.

It’s not fucking rocket science. Offer the people something, and they’ll vote for you. Go up your own ass too far and they’ll vote for the one who is at least pretending to offer something. In 2016, most of the Democrats I know forgot that the world is something that is happening on the ground, not in their heads. At…

He is one of the best defensive players in the NFL. If he were underperforming, the team would have cut him already. He is overperforming, and he needs to get paid. Nobody tunes in to watch owners count their money.

It would have taken someone with all the charisma of a houseplant to overcome it in 2016. HRC was despised by many people in the Rust Belt and in states that used to be considered swing states, but nobody cared. The Dems ran a candidate who was uniquely positioned to lose to one of the worst candidates in history.
