Russians were indicted for election fraud. American officials were indicted on obstruction of justice charges. Takes a real genius to figure out what’s going on between the two sides, huh smart guy?

You need to read the links, smart guy. 

Is the definition of “collusion” going to lead us down a rabbit hole? If collusion has a common-sense meaning, then yes. If you - some internet commentator - are going to try to hang your argument on some technical legal definition of collusion, like Clinton trying to define the word “is” in a legalistically muddy…

It’s really weird that Russian corruption of the 2016 election is uncontroversial regarding Trump advisors, money, social media, and republican institutions, but the reciprocation of that corruption is just a mind-bending concept to republican-sympathizers. Like Russia was just trying to help team Trump, through a…

Yeesh. Swinging for the fences early. Take your star, you dirty, filthy, mung-loving bastard.

What’s that prison-like building in the background? 

So what if that was Facebook’s founding? That’s not what Facebook is used for today, and certainly not what these girls signed up for - if they even have an account (I work with today’s youths and know they’ve mostly moved on to instagram and snapchat).

¯\_(ツ)_/¯ - representing his relationship w/Lebron, w/Lakers org., w/top-3 draft status, w/off-court business ventures. It works on multiple levels!

An article in Venues Now, which includes numerous quotes from Walsh, posits two factors beyond transaction speed that may have played a role in the Rays’ decision: going cashless “also reduces employee theft, according to teams and vendors,” (the article gives no proof for this bold claim)

In the end, they discovered that Dril is run by some guy... He’s not an alien, he’s not from the future, and he’s not even a real-life old man. He’s just a dude who has been making funny internet stuff for a very long time.

I don’t understand the parents who would spend $500,000 in bribes to get a kid into college. That’s 10x the cost of tuition over the course of a 4 year degree!

That ESPN is willing to employ analysts who also work for teams in the sport they cover plainly creates a conflict of interest...Even though ESPN pays the leagues it covers as a journalistic entity, there’s historically been a dividing line, thin as it is, between its financial relationships with leagues and its…

In addition to a star I want to add that’s a great little parable. Thanks for sharing - I’m totally going to share it whenever someone’s messing with forces they clearly don’t understand.

This strikes me as both fair - what entity would want a broadcaster talking shit about its product? - and massively problematic for the NFL. Facts are persistent things, and if the NFL’s fate is tied up in suppressing people from talking about the realities of playing football, it is, in the medium-to-long run,…

Eh, give credit where it’s due: it’s not easy for a sucky team to jettison a good qb (he was awesome under Fisher, at least.)

Credit where credit is due: he’s waaaay more familiar with his family than what I expected. that last paragraph starts with his son, goes on a 1:1 ratio between “I” and some other random soccer word, then comes back to his son! Has he ever done that before? Talk about a subject, start talking about himself - and then…

...Lonzo is in his second year and hasn’t showed enough to be a lost cause.

If you assume the market is some meritorious arbitrator of value, yeah sure, the market sets rates. But if you understand that the market is a set of Monty Burns wannabes who all get together at least once a year to discuss their business, then the fact that those 32 people all agree that Harper and Machado aren’t…

You say I’m overly broad, I say you’re naive. In a hypothetical, sure, it’s possible all parties value the commodity less than what players want. In reality, these owners are getting together, bitching about player salaries, and developing ideas of what to do about them. Right now, owners are focused like a laser on…

Teams want to win
