Oh, sure. And I cheer for my college when they do well—they made the DIII final four twice while I was there. But the Patriot League schools, brainy underdogs as they are, are still DI. You can still play against the big boys! and once in the while score a marvelous upset. But a NESCAC school literally can't make…

nonsense: gambling and roto league justify the most depraved behavior in otherwise respectable adult men

Because they were on tv are you also a Dallas fan?

Right? These are their classmates.

Yes. You can still have a personal connection to a school even if you didn't actually earn credits there. I didn't go to Penn State but I've lived most of my life next to it, my parents taught there, and most of my friends went there. I'm connected.

That cuts both ways. Going to the actual school gives you a chance to find out if the guys on the team are ok people or not. That's not always conducive to liking the team.

RA Derek is the kid in class who tells the teacher who gave the sub a hard time.

Derek the UConn RA is an ass. "[Y]ou're cheering for laundry." Dude, some of that laundry occasionally shows up for my International Business class. And one time that laundry said "hey" to me when I gave him his change from the cafeteria doing work study. I like laundry a lot more than the guy who is asking me to…

The guys on his floor will own him tonight. I was a Resident Director (fancy Higher Ed term for RA supervisor) for 4 years and this shit is the exact opposite of what we would tell the RAs to do. Also, by threatening them with the reminder, "I'm still going to be your RA for another month" means "bang on my door every…

Nobody's been passing off pro wrestling as real for years now. Kayfabe died when WWE started calling itself "sports entertainment".

At the risk of being accused of being a wrestling nerd, that's quite literally the worst comparison I've read.

In terms of characters and storylines it was the peak. The WWF vs. WCW rivalry itself put that era in a category of it's own. Having said that, the technical wrestling is much better now.

"But wrestling is fake and stupid"

lmao new orleans is fake you nerds

I haven't watched wrestling in almost 15 years but apparently Wrestlemania 30 was awesome and Daniel Bryan is way better than Stone Cold, Mankind, or the Rock (People's Champ version). Kind of jealous I'm not 14 now.

or maybe... just maybe, theyve spent a ton of time, energy and money only to finally determine that by offering a standalone HBO Go subscription at a reasonable price point would cannibalize a huge amount of their cable subscriptions and end up losing a ton of money in the long run. theyre not ignoring the…

Pssh. L2 Read Nubs. Only bandwagoners & filthy fantasy casuals watch the TV show.

Wait, the Indians play at a place called Progressive Field? Where do the Redskins play, Enlightened Stadium?

People use Ohio as a good litmus test for the rest of the nation. It truly does resemble a lot of US stats on a smaller scale. And yeah, this guy is a good example of racism against Native Americans. As long as the Indians and Redskins have mascots like this it gives assholes a broader audience to parade in shit like…

I thought the Redskins issue had two sides to it until I saw a picture of this guy. He's clearly the poster boy for Indian racism in America. Chief Wahoo and the Redskins gotta go.
