Folks can disagree if they want. I stand by my perspective. This is a free country.

I would agree. Some women hate to see other women win, or at least try. Personally, as someone who has been married long enough to know that staying married is a miracle of God, I merely keep silent about other people’s marriages.

I see your point. For some folks, however, marriage is supposed to be forever, an argument with which I mostly agree except in cases of spousal abuse and absolute fuckery. Since we don’t really know why Russell sought the divorce, people should simply chalk it up to “he was in his early 20s and married wrong”. Which…

As I said, by their 30s or when they have children, women realize that they need to do better. Of course, plenty of women have hung in with men that weren’t worth their time.

Buybacks never work because the investors never really get the money back unless they sell. What investors really want is to receive their dividends tax-free, or have the company simply hand over the profits like a Subchapter-S and then they pay the taxes.

Pretty much this. The current Cadillac lineup speaks to me in ways that it never had previously, and my wife and I considered a Buick Enclave before getting our 2006 Volvo XC90 (the price offered by my mother-in-law, who upgraded to a new Volvo XC90, along with the car being in great shape, was too good to refuse).…

Seems normal to me. Women spend their teens and early 20s trying to hook up with men who are cool, even if the “cool guys” are terrible people. Then, by their 30s (if not immediately after having children), they realize that they should be with a stable guy who will love them despite moments of flatulence, weight…

There’s a lot of disdain for Ciara and Russell for reasons both legitimate and otherwise. The legitimate one is that Russell divorced his first wife before he met Ciara, and it has been rumored that he fooled around on Wife Number One before the divorce. Since there is no evidence of that, I could care less.

On this, I agree. I’m no fan of abortion. Hell, I’m against it because it’s about adults putting their irresponsibility (and unwillingness to properly use birth control) on children. At the same time, Roe v. Wade is the law of the land and it exists because some people don’t want to be parents, either now or ever. And…

Well, you are a shitty person. Just like a lot of people. Including those of us who chose to have our children and wanted them.

The quality of a defense is based not on how it starts the game, but how it finishes. The Chargers finished well today, so it is decent. Today.

Exactly. The Redskins tried to build around Ryan Kerrigan. It finally realized three years ago that it should just build a strong defense, something that it is getting better at doing (though still not great).

Fangirl. Explains everything.

Her real name was Margaret — and she died broke. But cool nevertheless.

Burr-fect!

Better yet, bring up James Buckley, the still-living brother of conservative icon Bill Buckley, who ousted Goodell’s father from his U.S. Senate seat in 1968. That both Buckley and his successor, Daniel Patrick Moynihan, are more-famous than Goodell’s father must rankle the dear son.

Pat McAffee would disagree.

The product on the field has always likely been awful. After all, the NFL has only added five teams in the five decades since the merger. In every decade, there have only been four or five teams that have been great or dominant, another five or so that have been competitive, and the rest just mediocre to awful. Thus,…

Gumbel said it on Real Sports back in 2006, before Goodell took over the league. Got him in trouble with the league, since he was also on the NFL Network. Not one false word was said.

I didn’t say that the shareholders were forced to invest in it; perhaps you are responding to someone else and got your wires crossed. What I did point out is that in many cases, media firms tend to be dominated by families, often to their ruin. I wouldn’t knowingly put my money into such an investment (though, if you…
