The Sounders invented insufferability.

Sure, but you could have had Sulu turn out to be gay later, when he made some appearances as captain of the Excelsior. He had a daughter, but if gay people can have kids now, they definitely can in the 23rd century.

Mostly off-topic, but I thought the Seven of Nine-Chakotay relationship was a major cop-out. She and the Holo-Doctor had this incredibly interesting relationship that sometimes bordered on but wasn’t quite romance. And then the writers flushed all that for an utterly conventional pairing. Lame.

SD: Okay, plunge your horse-dong up our asses. Just, please, use a smidge of lube?

At least the Vikings gave the world one of my favorite moments in sports broadcasting, when Joe Buck was forced to his fainting couch by Randy Moss fake-mooning the Green Bay crowd in a playoff game.

So the ESPN person’s response to accusations that his network loves to dick ride east coast teams is that they also enjoy dick riding Pittsburgh?

I’m honestly curious: If you get dozens of bomb threats a week (Nice going, humanity, by the way), how do you tell if a particular one seems more credible? Is it more specific? Is the dispatcher hearing ticking in the background, or supervillainous laughter?

Well now see, that proves that, if 9/11 was an inside job, Macy Gray was absolutely not in on it.

It is pretty ridiculous. I mean, listen, we’re talking about practice, not a game, not a game, not a game, we talking about practice. Not a game. Not, not … Not the game that I go out there and die for and play every game like it’s my last. Not the game, but we’re talking about practice, man. I mean, how silly is…

The important thing is that the Galaxy so thoroughly humiliate the Sounders that the latter’s fans actually shut the fuck up for fifteen minutes. That’d be delightful.

Man, this article and comments are a great example of how, no matter how dorkish and despised something gets to be, if you (and it) stick around long enough, it’ll be cool again.

“The 49ers head coach said that even though Smith would no longer be part of the team, he would be supported”

At first I thought you said “gouge the market”. But, you know, six of one...

Because Footbaw. Just not subject to the same scrutiny, doncha know.

I think they’d want to add a “(metaphorically)“ to that slogan. Otherwise, I have to believe they’d be looking at at least a 15-yard penalty.

Right. If we really have to speak English, we better start calling this city The Angels.

I don’t believe anyone is saying Goldberg doesn’t have the right to say what she says. People are saying that it does, in fact, stink.

I missed that about Paterno. Good to know she’s capable of drawing the line somewhere, or that she does, in fact, have a line.

And it’s about being willing to admit it and try to do better when you mess up and do something assholish.

Right. And why should my money pay for diabeetus medicine for people who could just eat right and exercise? Such people should be more leery of where that logic leads than they are.
