Richie Incognito might not ever play another game for the Dolphins, but...[affixes fake mustache and toupee]...Rusty Shackleford is ready to suit up.

If they were going for realism in Chicago, they should have included a drive-by shooting at some point.

No. The crust is made from flour and water, and probably some butter. The border fence is made of steel and concrete.

Gotta start somewhere.

No it still stops for going out of bounds at all times - the difference now is that the clock restarts on ref's signal instead of the snap of the ball (unless it's the last two minutes of the half, in which case the clock restarts upon snap of the ball).

I lifeguarded at a small town waterpark back when I was 15. As low man on the totem pole, most of the more disgusting jobs were delegated to me.

It seemed like a point of frustration for you in the last electoral season was the blowback from pundits who took offense to having their utility called into question (obviously I'm thinking of Dylan Byers), and specifically those who argued against your purely mathematical approach to electoral predictions with the…

Lincoln Park, eh? That bar is now a Lululemon.

Order of protection - granted in the context of criminal, family law, or quasi-criminal matters to prevent harassment, threats, possibility of violence, etc.

That is exactly the opposite of what the law states in a TRO setting. This isn't an order of protection, and there's completely different standards for each.

Granting an injunction is not "standard stuff." By its very definition, an injunction is an extraordinary remedy granted by the Court before all of the facts of a case can be heard and each side given a chance to present argument. The fact that a federal judge is overruling the scientific consensus of the OPTN, which…

I don't like to armchair lawyer but I will anyway. If I'm from Biogenesis and I give two shits about protecting player information (which maybe they don't right now), there seems to be an easy way to get around having to produce documents in this case: just don't defend it. Don't file an answer. Better yet, come in…

While this works in principle, it's the practical application where MLB is going to have trouble. You can't file a lawsuit in the sole effort to obtain documents related to third parties that you can't get from those third parties by suing them directly. Now the comment you cited to is correct - MLB hasn't done that,…

Huh? Paterno testified that he didn't know about anything about 1998. The Freeh Report concluded that he DID know about allegations in 1998, which you wrote a post on: http://deadspin.com/5925408/freeh-report-joe-paterno-knew-in-1998. Accepting the Freeh Report's conclusions that Paterno knew all about the 1998…

Not being charged with a crime does not equate to it being proven that you met your legal duty. Even being charged with a crime, tried, and found not guilty doesn't legally prove that you didn't do it - it just means that it can't be proven beyond a reasonable doubt that you did. The fact that Paterno had YET to be…

I agree with everything you're saying. I'm still interested as to what Curley and Schultz will have to say during their trials and, maybe even more revealing, what they'll say after their trials. I'm particularly interested to hear Curley's testimony what he discussed with Paterno when he did a 180 and decided not to…

There was literally not one email that Paterno sent in the whole Report. Not one. There was a critical email from Tim Curley claiming statements by Paterno, but it came from Curley and Paterno wasn't on it. That doesn't mean Paterno was innocent, and I don't necessarily believe he was, but when you make shit like this…

I guess, I think he's being more reasonable than you're giving him credit for.

He's asking for the Freeh Report to be released to see if there's a reason to think its integrity has been compromised. Your response is that there's no reason to do so because the integrity of the report has not been compromised.

You're ignoring that the Board members are, for the most part, people who are elected and want to remain on the Penn State Board. The Board made the decision to fire the most revered figure in Penn State history, who died shortly thereafter - some would say as a direct result of his being fired (or at least it hurried…
