If someone is fouled while shooting and someone goaltends after the whistle was blown it is still goaltending

It’s supposed to go to the lowest qualified bidder and even then it’s not really supposed to be to the lowest. Public and government entities have discretion to balance quality and advantages against cost. Effectively it’s the best offer more than the lowest bid that’s actually supposed to get the job.

That sounds more like a construction/contractor issue, as opposed to design.

All construction projects, no matter how ambitious, are subject to compounding errors that lead to catastrophic failure.

Anyone who pulls the hindsight line needs to go roll around in broken glass for a couple of hours before they are allowed to rejoin society at large. There’s no such thing as hindsight with a civil engineering project and safety. The #1 priority is to not kill people with your mistakes. If you fail to do that, you

Ok here’s the fundamental problem with that assessment. If any process to construct something as ambitious as a bridge over traffic is vulnerable to “compounding mistakes” without a check or redundancy to either mitigate or prevent them, it’s a bad process. Maybe the ABC process is fine. Maybe it’s not. In the context

Do I understand correctly that this “ABC” process consists of the following steps?

coded message sent and received, labron [sic]:

Post trade... Cavs have dropped 2 games further back. Yeah, LeBron going Beast Mode will impact the Raps... but if any Raps team has had a shot, it’s this team... against the weakest LeBron team in 7 years.

As a long-sufferng Raps fan, this iteration of the team is great, not just because they’re winning, and winning well, but because they’re also out there having so much damn fun while doing it. Something to be said for long-term chemistry/continuity.

Also (fake news but still funny):

Here’s the thing: how often has LeBron beaten teams that were better than his? And before people rush to the defense of the greatest player of his generation, this isn’t a dig. The better team usually wins in the NBA.

I usually post snappy comments on Deadspin but I love this Raptors team and thank you (collectively) for writing about them more often.

The Leafs are good, the Raptors are good, the Argos are defending champs...it almost seems like things here are too good to be true and nothing can...

Wow, never thought I would be inspired by Jalopnik to go to Amazon and buy a primer on 20th century European philosophy...but that’s what I did..

Wow. I also had a ‘71 Super, and the starter was easy to swap. The only weird thing was getting the 2 bolts behind the back seat.

When the solenoid on my ‘45 Farmall crapped out, I simply took the cable off it, touched it to the stud on the starter motor, and then put the cable back when the engine started.

I would totally leak it, but I feel like that would be unfair to all these NCAA executives who work so hard all year (for mere hundreds of thousands of dollars in some cases) to make sure that every single one of these kids preserve their sacred amateur status and the money goes exactly where it belongs: to the adults

90 minutes?!? Screw these guys. It used to be 30 minutes and they wasted little time. They’d show a region talk about it, then show another. This here is ridiculous. Leak it or whatever, but a better plan is for no one to watch the damn thing. Don’t be sheeple.
