In reading this, the comments about Canadians and dykes seemed like clear harassment, but I was having a hard time connecting the dots to discrimination claims. No one got fired here right? And isn’t slashing women’s sports budgets more of a Title IX violation than anything else?

Where is the discrimination in this story? I see the harassment claims and I see strong potential for Title IX violations in how the school seems to be budgeting its women’s sports teams, but the discrimination claims seem to boil down to contract negotiation issues and “my boss didn’t want to come to my coming out…

Nah man Bledsoe got hurt in week 2

2 things have always infuriated me playing Fifa - the AI defending of my fellow teammates, and the unwillingness of my midfielders and forwards to make smart runs into space. No matter how I adjust tactics and formations, I spent so much time calling second defenders so they don’t just stand there like dumbassses…

“Don’t play spades” is a bit too unilateral. If people are playing for money, definitely don’t play.

Souped-up is the common usage, but you can choose to write it in a form referencing “supercharged,” which everyone understands, or “soup,” which everyone…

Sure. It’s a variant of “supercharged”, which was first used in the 1700s. http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/superch…

By all means, continue to choose to use the non-sensical version of the phrase. It’s a free country.

American Ninja Warrior, a sort of modern and souped-up version of American Gladiators,

I would describe this as “literally the content of the spygate videotapes.”

Bill Walsh and the Niners are another example. But if the notion of opinions informed by facts and context scares you, I wouldn’t bother googling it.

I am loving all of this. Next week we’re going to read about the illegal advantages Tom Brady gains by using too much tape on his ankles

I think it’s time for you to change your tin foil hat.
