8-8? You clearly think much too highly of this team.

It’s not that they “can’t function,” it’s that it is easier to do so without having to ask those questions, which they will hear more of if Kaepernick is on their team.

Also, the Cubs bullpen would have fared better if they kept those masks on.

There were three rain delays...

Kaepernick is maybe nominally better than them (I’d rather have Bortles), but most of them won’t be playing on a weekly basis and none of them force the coaching staff and the other players on the roster to answer questions that have little to do with football, thereby taking away from the team’s potential success as…

Yeah. So just don’t do all that.

How so? It’s not a concern to the bottom line, but about avoiding a distracting media scrum on a daily basis. It’s only cowardice in the sense that teams think that signing him will make it harder to win. If a team thought they would have greater success by signing him, they would.

I don’t think teams are afraid of the “backlash.” Rather, they don’t want to deal with the hassle. They’re not afraid of boycotts etc., they don’t want the extra attention. Pribably because they are more commonplace, criminal offenses don’t stay in the news cycle as long as the Kaepernick saga has. He’s made it clear…

Do you think Trump watches these missile launch videos and has a “yeah, Jeets” moment? 

Assuming the current plane(s) do in fact need replacing, isn’t this actually a fairly smart move? Like, if in an imaginary world where he lost the election (I like to call it “my happy place”), would this be viewed as a shrewd acquisition? Obviously the Trump+Russia thing is the main driver of this being news but…

“Clearly this guy doesn’t have tee-dubya-tee-dubya. I remember in ‘05, Paulie got run over by the team bus and still made it out for some BP. Now that was a guy....”

The Chicago style dog (onions, relish, tomato, sport pepper, pickle spear, celery salt) is a can’t miss. That said, anyone who bitches about someone else putting ketchup on is an asshole and should be shot.

I wouldn’t say that the owners are “colluding” in anyway. That would mean they are actively plotting and working together to not sign Kaepernick.

As was mine, but then I thought, “nah... it’s middling at best.”

. . . I like you.

Oh, there’s no doubt about that. Harrelson has shown open disdain for him over the years and sooo many Sox fans think Hawk can do no wrong.

Just come to terms with the fact that, despite his flaws, Steve Stone is drastically better at his job than Hawk Harrelson.

Does that mean Shaun King is white after all?

Batteries Not Included?

Are we entirely certain that Vince McMahon isn’t the mastermind behind this fight?
