Well, when you say things like

So you’re defending a multi-billion dollar company from paying full market value for a product that they should have had in the first place but don’t because they fucked up. All this to screw some average Joe who’s pledged his earnings to charity. Got it.

And he’s using his leverage by owning the only copy of it. The $1 million estimate came from an appraisal by Sports Illustrated so I hardly think it’s silly. If the NFL truly thought it was worth less than that, why not let him try to sell it at an auction and they can bid on it for what they think it’s worth? You

Then let him sell it on the open market. If the NFL feels that the tape is that worthless and doesn’t care, they should allow him to sell it at Sotheby’s or wherever and pocket the money. They’re intentionally lowballing him and using their leverage to save what’s a few tenths of a percentage on their annual profits.

Did you bother to read the article? The $1 million is from an appraisal by Sports Illustrated over a decade ago. It’d probably fetch way more among collectors. He didn’t pull the sum out of thin air. Also, the money would go to charity. If the NFL doesn’t give a shit about owning it, then why not let him just sell it

Technically, you can already do that. No manager, however, would ever do that on a regular basis.

Yeah, fuck the DH! Rabble rabble rabble no specialized positions rabble rabble everyone plays offense and defense.

Probably not. Football went that way because the injury rate was too high and the game evolved to a point where guys had to specialize in one position to fully grasp its intricacies. Baseball is going the same way; major league pitching has become so much more intense that guys who aren’t paid to hit can’t hang with

And you’re still missing the point that it’s not “cult-like” when it’s in line with history. What, pray tell, is this magical era you speak of where we didn’t praise mothers and encourage healthy folk to have children? If nothing, our time is far tamer in regards to child-bearing than any other point in history.

First, I think characterizing the desire to have babies as “cult-like” speaks more about you than them. I know don’t any parents who worship babies - and I live in a place where big families are expected - and to hyperbolize it as “cult-like” makes you seem like you have a pretty extreme aversion to children, like the

Such a cunning retort! You sound like you’re not a day over 25, or have lived an incredibly privileged life. People do plan you dolt, but life has so many unexpected variables that only a clueless fuckwit would lecture people on choices and “planning ahead” rather than realize that here in the adult world, shit

This is a painfully clueless post.

There is a creepy cultish obsession with babies that permeates everything.

Your point was the intellectual equivalent of a fart. Everyone is biased. That’s like pointing out that the sky is blue when the sun is out. Great fucking insight. Guess what? Childless adults are even more so. The vast majority of parents know what it’s like to be an adult without children because we were one

Cam always got a ton of shit because he drove moralistic sportswriters nuts after he managed to evade any real repercussions for his antics at Florida and Auburn while winning a Heisman, a national title, and tens of millions from being a #1 overall pick. Then he was predicted to be a bust because mobile black QB’s

So the guy with a worse TD/INT ratio, fewer rushing yards, and more than twice as many sacks is benched? Weird.

Is it better than the American remake? Because Quarantine looked pretty bad.

Maybe I’m squeamish, but I thought some of the scenes (like the rape) were way too over-the-top and unnecessary. There were some scary moments, but it was also a bit too predictable and felt like it revolved around shock factor. That’s my beef with so many horror flicks these days, is that they can’t just rely on a

Yep, and I’d add “found film” bullshit as well. Meta-horrors don’t pretend to be scary outside of a couple scenes. Torture porn and FF movies try to be scary, but instead rely on lame, played-out gimmicks.

Those aren’t one and the same. Tucker and Dale was a straight-up comedy and never branded itself as a horror flick. If you want legit horror, bitch at hacks like Eli Roth or Rob Zombie who purport to offer “scary” movies and instead just pump out gory dreck.
