You live in a remorseless, unapologetic oligarchy where there is a big club and you’re not in it. Got it?

Yea, and by then their underwater stadiums will be packed. Stuffed to the gills, if you will.

That’s literally the first thing I tell him (just in a less ultimatum-y “this is how it needs to be or else” way). Then I offer some other approaches in case he’s still willing to try and make things work.

Somebody clue me in here, because I am ignorant. The thing that was wrong with her original tweet was:

I think every sport should just follow the exact baseball model where players don’t declare for anything but just become eligible to be drafted once they graduate/turn 18 and only after being drafted (or not drafted) by a team have to make any decisions. It’s insane to me that basketball and football put the onus on…

The worst part of this take is conflating LiAngelo Ball with players who will someday make it in the NBA. He’s the 3rd best dude from a family where the best dude is STRUGGLING as a rookie. I would say LiAngelo would be lucky to end up playing pro ball in China, but....

Why not use a modified version of the baseball model?

I only like him when he shits on Big Evil like the NCAA and Trump, but that’s just another manifestation of his own shitty arrogant evil.

Oh, honey.

I would tackle a neighbor for doing this as well. Especially a repeat offender, as I’m sure this isn’t his first 5 a.m. mow-a-thon. You have to be a real monster to put your lawn ahead of the sleep of your neighbors. But we already know Rand is a monster.

The story’s author takes us into the living room of Johnstown resident Pam Schilling, a 60-year-old retiree who is already keyed up to vote for Trump in 2020:

If your knee jerk reaction to every shooting is to worry more about your toys than the shattered lives of your fellow Americans, you might suck as a human being.

Wow. Now that was a read. Thanks for helping me get a little bleary eyed at the end of the workday, Dave.

This administration truly is a bunch of cowards. Their consistent lack of integrity and apparent inability to show contrition is disgusting. These are weak people. For all the bravery it took for Kelly to put on the uniform and serve, he is an absolute coward in his current capacity.

Kelly won’t apologize even though he should. He must believe it’s below him to apologize to 1.) a black person and 2.) a lady.

I’ve heard people trying to defend McNair’s remarks as “something that people say all the time.” The thing is, I’ve never heard “inmates running the prison.” It’s always been “inmates running the asylum,” as in bat-shit psychotic patients attempting to run their psychiatric hospital. That being the case, his use of…

Houston, which joined the Cardinals, Reds, and Dodgers as the only franchises to win pennants in multiple leagues.

That’s a pretty silly position you’ve got, there.

They are Smoothie’s homies.

No worries, I am glad to have a discussion about all this, these are things that matter a lot, especially in these times where we see a lot of the same patterns of behavior. (by the way this is a super long comment, but the part after the **** is just some good reading on the subject if you want to learn more- what…
