People react to this stuff so weirdly. Why is the response to, “Police brutality is bad” always “NOT ALL COPS!!1!”?

So that’s what Clarence Beeks had in that report.

Plenty of people have made it clear that for them, the answer is yes.

This isn’t hard to understand. You can criticize your family members because you love them. Strangers can’t criticize your family, though. That’s disrespectful.

Did you know that kid is 4? That feels like it should be kinda important, no? That these may be old pics?

Is this a “the media” problem, or a “that blogger” problem?

“This won’t be paid for by taxpayers, it’ll be paid for by the people who pay this tax! I mean, that’s just science.”

Maybe Carlos Danger needs the rush of meeting new women more than he needs the security of a marriage. Maybe he has poor impulse control. Maybe he can’t cope with the isolation of having a spouse that travels so much. Maybe he’s having trouble coping with how his bad behaviour cost him a hugely promising political…

Well, I guess it would be nice.

Yes, because the English LOVE parking the bus. Everybody was so happy for Greece when they won the Euros playing trash football.

I love Jericho. Comes from my hometown, actually. And I’m sure he knows his way around a fight.

Fuckin' Belichick.

Shit, she is not transgender! Pardon the error.

Excellent article. But it’s a dilemma because both sides of the author’s Trolley construct have reasonable arguments. She comes to a conclusion based on what she feels serves the greater good. A perfectly reasonable person can argue the opposite, since gender classifications are a crude form of testosterone…

That’s fine, there’s no reason we need to discuss Semenya in particular. We can discuss how and why we define who should be eligible to compete in what is currently classified as women’s athletics without using a specific athlete as an example.

The whole reason we allow women to compete separately from men is a crude system of forming a low testosterone division for sports. It’s like saying that a person born on February 29 gets to enter junior (U21) tournaments until they’re 83 years old because they’ve only had 20 birthdays - you have to define your…

Because arm length and heart size are not a current basis of classification in swimming. It’s not a matter of identity - “But I identify as 53 kg” - but biology, and intersex people are legitimately both sexes.

Do you follow sports at all? Do you not realize that pro track athletes make millions of dollars as professionals? And that’s prize money, not endorsements. These athletes come from big time scholarship programs in Division 1 universities, programs worth millions of dollars as well. These scholarship programs compete…

What? How do you think people get to the Olympics? Monster.com?

Why do you keep making this about the IOC? Sports don’t just happen for two weeks every four years. Hormone Testing for youth athletics wouldn’t just be “not profitable”, it would be prohibitively expensive, with a potentially devastating effect on the availability of school sports. Not to mention the secondary…
