The fact that you can’t wrap your head around it is why you think it’s a bad idea. A number of people have already explained it in other comments, but it’s a basic NBA Salary Cap dump for a draft pick. The Browns have more cap space than anyone (more than they could possibly use this year). Even if they immediately…

And welcome to discussions on mandatory minimum sentencing for non-violent drug crimes.

Wouldn’t they count that as 6 3/5 people?

I feel like you’ve decided that you’re not going to be convinced regardless of what other people tell you here. I have a couple of friends with whom I play competitive Smash on a regular basis (we usually go with PM, though). I also played a crap-ton (official unit of measure) of Melee back in college, and that was…

Having that kind of jewelry in her house is the cross she bears that was given to her.

So, I’m admittedly a sore UVa fan, but isn’t a “jump stop” a fancy name for an up and down travel? I thought if you jumped with the ball and didn’t shoot, it was a turnover...

Yeah, these people who are using a personal belief they hold to completely dismiss others are idiots, says the person who is using a personal belief to completely dismiss others.

Agree 100%. It’s the same thing you get in any Final Fantasy list. You’re really just asking “Which one did you play first?”

Is this what happens when a person is bitten by a radioactive frat boy?

FAKE NEWS!! HE WAS OBVIOUSLY PRACTICING ON HIS DAY OFF!! YOU DOCTORED THE PHOTOS!!

About your apparently completely missing the joke? He wasn’t bragging, he was being facetious. He was saying that most people don’t culminate a year of “no days off” with over 100 million people watching us in a primetime event involving Lady Gaga.

You misspelled “uppity.”

I think there were a lot more people cheering for the Pats to comeback last night for the same reason I was. I took the Pats -2.5. Drew’s view on the Pats had nothing to do with it.

Drew lived in NYC, like, 14 years ago. Close enough for most Boston folks. I’m pretty sure that in their minds, anything outside of the Boston Suburbs is a map labeled, alternatingly, “New York” and “Here there be dragons.”

Well, if Keifer Sutherland can be president, I don’t see why Donald Sutherland couldn’t. That is who is in that picture, right?

This, 100%. My brother works for the Foreign Service. During his first tour, he spent a year handling visa requests. He did this in the London Embassy (generally speaking, a country with whom we have pretty solid relations, at least in the past 200 years). His job involved basically interrogating anyone trying to…

Seriously. I don’t understand how guys can wear dress shirts without undershirts. I guess you could also try this stuff:

I haven’t quite gotten here yet, but reading Diana Moskovitz’ articles about what’s going on at LAX each morning has gotten me damn close. I was working from home yesterday morning reading the article about about Nana Sarkisyan and, had my wife come downstairs just a few minutes earlier, I’m pretty sure this would…

Taking it as a personal insult may be unreasonable, but discussing dissatisfaction of this, on a review for the game, no less, is actually quite helpful for others. As someone who has followed this game from a distance, and came in to read the review, finding out that it came out “incomplete” and that I’m better off…

On the vodka part, keeping it in the freezer helps to hide that it’s not good quality. It’s the same purpose of keeping beer near freezing. Your tastebuds basically get numbed, and can’t tell that it’s shitty. Hence “brewed cold, transported cold, served cold” actually means “You can barely taste all the corn!”
