Last thing first: Practice what you preach. Again, this is not the 101 class. There are limits to what you are owed. You don’t know me. You don’t know the full scope of my experience, online or in person. You’re not in a position to know whether or not I’m capable or even remotely interested in responding to you or…

“This take seems to rely on the absolutely unrealistic expectation that MLS wants to be in the business of which political signs are okay and what are not.”

If they didn’t want to be in that business, they shouldn’t have joined that business. If they’d like to leave that business, they can close up shop immediately.…

Spot on. The person who typed “if someone else risks a whole lot more than you to take a stand, you really need to be careful before you align with or perhaps appropriate that in any way, shape, or form” apparently thinks that no one who wasn’t alive during the Montgomery Bus Boycott has any right to take a stand on…

How is coordinating silence “overmuch” when the thing you’re complaining about is literally the absence of action?

Do you have any flags in mind? Be specific.

“if the PB/PP want to come into the stadium and fly the flags they have co-opted (e.g. the Betsy Ross flag) as their own do they have to be allowed?”

Not if they don’t have tickets. 

“We once had a TIFO that said “Anti Fascist Social Club” that was perfectly acceptable by MLS.”

The operative word in that statement is was.…

Unless I’m misunderstanding your point, you’re literally advocating for sporting environments to be governed by the whims and needs of the uneducated... If you read an article about the Black Panthers being outside a polling place would you call animal control? If you read an article about the Detroit Tigers’ 2019…

I don’t think you understand what the concept of “agency” means, but let me ask you something:

Do you have to be a migrant child, locked in a cage on the southern border, in order to care about migrant children locked in cages on the southern border? Do you have to be Jewish to care about neo-Nazis? Do you have to be…

“Lil Nas is black, when the country consortium exhibited their hatred for him they didn’t know he was gay, they knew he was black.”

Hanging out in this thread? Or knowing how to find notifications on this website?

You should work with the NFL to schedule more games at CFL stadiums. Seems like you’re great at moving goalposts!

Counterpoint:  How many Raiders legends quit playing the sport altogether in their prime? We’re not in a position to throw stones... #WhenTheBlueAndSilverWave

And they took a lot of shit for Heimdall being Black... but stuck with that through three Thor films without recasting Idris Elba. I seem to remember people being... thrilled about that...

You conveniently forgot that they botched Superman (the whole character) and the Justice League. And I note that you drew a distinction between good great movies and popcorn movies below... Where did Billion Dollar Aquaman fall on that line? You’re selective with your goalposts. Sometimes you care about quality.…

“Federer is left with nothing but a shocking upset loss and continued ownership over one of tennis’ strangest streaks.”

Two, actually. Two streaks. A lot of people don’t know this, but Roger Federer is a HUGE fan of lots of different sports but he really loves football. Keeps track of lots of leagues in many countries,…

Props to the geniuses who saw weed on TV, recognized weed on TV, and turned to clout-chasing on Twitter. How do you say “stitches” en español? 

“You look around the league, you see James Connor and Damien Williams become stars”

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

HAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. 

Six years. 90 Millie. 50 Millie gua-ran-fucking-teed. I’m gonna type this next part slowly for all of you “Running backs are expendable” people who would rather side with billionaire owners over millionaire athletes:

1. The market is what an individual player’s direct deposit says the market is for that individual…

Low-brow, but I rock a little know-how:

Here’s the thing though: The supposedly obvious, not-at-all ingenius plan that anyone could have come up with? It only works if the team/coach you’re planning against... isn’t ready for the obvious play that anyone could have come up with. It only works if you’re across the table from someone whose attitude is “this…

If you’re not smart enough to figure out that an offense doing “just fine” when it is minus one Bell and has all of the rest of the firepower Pittsburgh has, then you’re not really in a position to call me difficult or obtuse. Was the offense “just fine” when Bell was in it?

Stop pretending that a guy who is REALLY…
