It’s off topic, but for me this article came with an autoplay video of a trash bag ad right after the second paragraph. I’d like to support Deadspin, but nothing will turn on AdBlock faster than that.

I have to go with D.J. Reader on this one: I, also, do not like to fuck dinosaurs.

I don’t mean to make you spit out your coffee, but over the last two seasons, Stafford has a higher completion percentage and yards per attempt than Rodgers, and is only slightly behind in passer rating (98.6 to 95.1).

A single person making $450K in a city, even if they live somewhere very nice, is probably spending no more than 20% of their income on rent and 10% of their income on food/entertainment. A single person making $30K in a city is probably spending virtually all their disposable income on…

OK, you’re right. I’ll stare at the eclipse.

Also not a scientist, but it makes common sense to me that the eclipse would be more dangerous than staring at the sun.

Given that he’s a Muslim-American Trump supporter, I’m going to go with some combination of “doesn’t give a fuck” and “completely, utterly clueless.”

“Hold my beer.”
