“The state’s portion of the funding comes entirely from state income taxes paid by NBA players.” Try going to a bank and taking out a loan with that logic. “Look, I need $250 million. Just give me the check now. I won’t actually pay you back, but over the next 20 years, my employees will be your customers (even though…

AND eliminating living wage protections. Because who needs a living wage when you have bootstraps!

As a medical researcher at the University of Wisconsin, it sure was a bummer to see the University of Wisconsin eliminate more than 700 middle class jobs (including more than a dozen from my department, the School of Medicine and Public Health). Who needs a cure for cancer when you can help a billionaire make a profit…

There are a lot of good boomerang insults here, but I bet boomerangs will have a pretty good comeback.

If there’s one thing that Jimbo Fisher has learned from all of these scandals, it’s that dorms rooms have no security cameras and only a handful of witnesses.

Come on DeAndre, send a Cyber Dust apology like a real man.

Blood on the seat is just one more tribute to Penn State football.

“If you want fun, come to Dallas!” might not be the best pitch when you’re competing against Los Angeles.

Real question: does Mark Cuban require journalists to mention Cyberdust in exchange for a statement? I never hear about it outside of Mark Cuban conversation.

He should be able to adjust perfectly fine this season, but he might need a few pointers.

Orrrrr the state could use that $250 million dollars to reinstate the $250 million they just cut from the University of Wisconsin. You know, the one that cost UW Milwaukee 200-300 middle class jobs. Madison lost around 400 middle class jobs. What’s that? You’re a bigger fan of basketball than you are of education?…

If there’s one thing I learned in college, it’s that the more you put Jager down, the more likely Jager is to come back up.

Well, at least they did a pretty good job editing the boos out of the draft video.

Something tells me that he won’t be wearing a KPMG hat much longer.

The Tallahassee Police Department: To protect and serve (Florida State football players).

“Tallahassee police have redacted everything except the approximate time of what happened, the location, and the name and contact information for the victim.” Could there be a better caricature of the TPD than the TPD itself?

The box office is now a global market, and explosions translate a lot better abroad than compelling (and dubbed) dialogue abroad.

Women are guilty of this too. I was recently at a concert with a friend from work. Throughout the show, a girl kept trying to talk to me. I was very uninterested, so I was consistently short, but polite (I’m here to listen to some live music, yaknow?). After the show ended, she came up to me and said “so... are you…

If Iguodala had played for the Cavs, they would have won in five games (assuming Blatt would actually take him off the bench, that is).
