    The umpire would need a reason to throw him out of the game tomorrow to throw him out of the game tomorrow. If he threw Harper out tomorrow for saying something tonight, the umpire would be in for a suspension.

    Bollywood makes more films, but Hollywood generates ~$10.3 billion in revenues compared to ~$1.6 billion from all Indian cinema.

    Brady is suspended. He can appeal to the Supreme Court, but that’s it.

    It seems to be the correct decision. The legal question was whether Goodell acted within his powers under the collective bargaining agreement, not whether or not Brady was guilty of what he was accused of. The original judge went beyond the original

    I know, that worked out so well when Ted Kennedy passed away.

    FWIW, Jeter’s last AB was actually in Boston that weekend. That was his last AB at Yankee Stadium III.
