What about Sacramento? They’ve got a new arena and fans there would probably love to have an NBA team.

North Dakota has the Badlands and the International Peace Garden near the border with Canada. And remember that North Dakota is like Baja Manitoba for Canadians. I’m sure a fair number of University of Saskatchewan undergrads load into their party buses and head for Fargo, Dickinson, and Minot to really throw down…

Nothing in the world? How much more certain are you about Bonds and his wrists than you are about your cereal rankings?

The contention that the Senate blocked Fortas because he was “a crook” actually fails to bring up an aspect of that episode highly germane to the current nomination. Yes, Fortas getting speaking fees from American University and the later revealed Wolfson retainer showed impropriety and gave politicians the cover to…

Cheering for the A’s can feel like cheering for laundry, but it’s nice looking laundry.

I live in Los Angeles and I can’t in good conscience let my kids become Dodger fans, but I also struggle with passing on my A’s fandom to them.

Yep. I guess I would. Instead, I just read the article saying “It can also alert emergency services” and assumed that the reporter (blogger? columnist? whatever?) had a working knowledge of it.

Even better, this one can contact emergency services based on what it hears.

Hahahaha. I know you’re trolling or being performatively lefty or something, but the statement that Bernie isn’t dying . . . just beautiful. He truly is a god not a human being.

Yes. The headline makes it sound like this great shot is off a rebound from that miss.

Obviously, I know that “finding work” is a sort of idiomatic expression and you do make the point that he’s on lists and being considered for jobs. Still, it’s sort of obscuring the key point. If Mel Gibson were going around Hollywood, hat in hand, repenting his sins, saying how sorry he was for things, promising to…

Zero scandals. Really? Perhaps you don’t remember how Obama tried to appoint a man with known ties to healthcare lobbyists and a private equity firm to be Secretary of Health and Human Services. Just think of the ruin Tom Daschle would have done had he not been forced to withdraw his name. A compromised cabinet…

It won’t be effective. The wall. The wall won’t be effective.

Scholars who study “illegal” immigration have found that the absence of economic incentives is basically the only thing that stops immigrants from coming. If you can make more money and have a better life on one side of a wall than you can on the other,…

I agree with the spirit of your points and definitely take your side in the argument. Still, your comments shows a couple of misconceptions.

Seven appearances? Did their losses in 1986 and 1997 get retconned when Belichick took over?

Not at any additional cost. That money was always going to the kelptocrats. They just funneled it through a lavish Olympics instead of some other state boondoggles.

Steve Sarkisian got four touchdowns out of Alabama tonight, but like so many other nights he needed a fifth.

Unlike most of what Trump says he’s going to do, at least tweeting the state of the union would be constitutional.

Losing is important for a team and especially for Draymond. If you want to kick a guy in the balls, you need to lose your balance. That’s just basic kinesiology.

MLB teams do hold open tryouts every year. So, it’s not inconceivable. Jim Morris went from drafted prospect to high school science teacher / baseball coach to motivational but horrid MLB relief pitcher. I’m sure there are a few former high school stars playing beer league games who saw that Disney movie and think…

Michael Gaines and a case of Zima.
