I’d take the job. They’re my hometown team.

it’ll be a late lunch.

I love Deadspin.

I like feel-good stories that show the realization of promise. I appreciate it when people are able to overcome obstacles in life to obtain a better life for themselves and their family. I want the kid who works hard and knows there are no shortcuts for success. But going from a video coordinator for the Wizards to mak…

Also, negativity by Dems traditionally reduces turnout, which would be a boon for the GOP.  The GOP can win on fear mongering and negativity, but Dems just can’t.  

Easily - he frames impeachment as a partisan hit job. McConnell does the same. The liberal media says both sides are partially right and partially wrong. Fox goes all in for Trump again, talking about how Democrats aren’t serious about governing and are still hung up on Hillary losing. Most people aren’t really paying…

I’m assuming you meant WI, not MN (which she won).

If you haven’t read this (or just haven’t read it recently), it’s a pretty decent analysis and shows that the Democrats tend to make the same mistake with refusing to build power: https://www.nytimes.com/2005/03/30/opinion/a-party-inverted.html 

Interestingly enough,…

He doesn’t necessarily need more deplorables. He just needs to win fewer states than he won last time, and given his red wall, he only really needs to focus on a handful of states that he won in 2016: Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Florida, and North Carolina. Democrats need to flip at least two but more likely…

I was mostly with you until your last paragraph.

McConnell would absolutely refuse to hold the requisite trial and or he would hem and haw for as long as possible until he could say “well, let’s wait for the election!” At the same time, he’d say impeachment has never been used for partisan political purposes the way the Democrats are using it. He’ll then wink…

I took my dad, a non-sports person, to a Wizards game when he was around 70. We had dinner at Zaytinya beforehand, where I tried to get him sufficiently buzzed that he’d have a good time. I figured he must know the basics of basketball so I tried to teach him some of the fun things to look for - like a block or a long…

is this a reference to The OA?  

Brave lad. He definitely Atlant-ate it at the end.  Lucky for him he wasn’t chopped in two.  

That’s a heluva way to tell someone to fuck themselves.

What’s your “Jon Snow survives” plan, then? He landed on Rhaegal’s soft body and survived? I don’t need Jon to survive - he’s a dunce - but unless he’s going to be offed in some ridiculous way next week, he’s around to look like the next Azor Ahai (though maybe that’s Arya, about to kill green-eyed Dany).

Congrats!  

I only hear “yanny.”

Whoever does the Deadspin Jon Gruden art has been a subtle genius for quite some time, though I think the number of Jon Gruden articles has outpaced the ability to saturate a picture further. 

Exactly. Look at the demographics and look at the GOP’s decades-long strategy of attacking Democratic donor sources (unions, plaintiffs lawyers) combined with consolidating power (gerrymandering, in-aggregate court packing, voter suppression). They are very close to the point where the Democratic Party, as opposition,…
