I think you’re 100% right. I think it all needs to be talked about, but we need to talk about the issues that are actually the issues as you did, rather than just talk about how people are scared, like this. We’ve gotten to a point where people say something out of ignorance, and they are immediately vilified as a…

No not at all, I do not like that this is our president and do not like the direction I see things lining up to be. The point is this is a news source that utterly fails at giving information, and if you want to call the subject matter of this article as information that it is manipulated information to leave out the…

Yes, but relaying the actual fear of people (whom I believe to be justified in their fear) to others, without presenting the ideas of those who are not afraid is not good practice. Now if this article was just a bunch of random people’s thoughts on Trump without any sort of balance that’s one thing, but by saying…

hahahahaha, I do like that idea, and you’re 100% right, but the goal should not be “give them a taste of their own medicine” it should be let’s come up with the right way to disagree in a democratic fashion, this is just yelling at each other.

It’s imperative to continue to report on things Trump says, but this article isn’t about what he said, it’s about 5 people in the military’s opinion of him. And it’s only 5 negative opinions, it doesn’t add anything to the discussion to present these letters, or emails, or whatever they were as anything more than the…

Look, I’m not trying to say he’s a good guy or that he doesn’t believe those things but I think it’s important for journalists to back away from sensationalism. Inevitably popular movements will be hijacked and turned into something unclear, unfocused, and altogether harmful. It’s more important to present facts while…

I agree, it’s important to remember who the person we just elected president is, and not to just blindly say “we’re all together in this now and need to see how it goes,” but the continued stream of vitriol that proved to have no power in dissuading voters needs to stop.

(It’s also worth noting that Jost is wrong in the most narrow sense: “white, rural, religious Americans,” to pull a phrase from the Times, largely only have the vaguest notion of what Tinder is, and wouldn’t have known about its new policy.) This kind of thinking is the problem. Do not assume you know about white,…

I feel like the only really bad aspect of this, is that it’s on Fox News, which automatically makes it seem like it’s trying to be informative rather than goofy. If this was on a channel like comedy central, it would still have its issues of stereotyping but it doesn’t come across like its saying those stereotypes are…

I seek to represent all of the objectivity that is normally so absent in blogs and their comment sections ha.

If the previous play was legal so was that last one. He 100% put his shoulder down into the defender, but Rhodes also 100% positioned himself there for contact even though it was unnecessary, new NFL rules that is also taunting. My preferred outcome would be that either both are flagged as late hits, one against and…

He definitely makes a move toward the official but I think the actual contact may have been incidental as a result of Rhodes getting up too. Even if he did; they called him for taunting, so they can’t look back at the replay and come up with another reason. Additionally it’s not even that ref that throws the flag.

I would have been surprised if they called it a late hit, I don’t think it was egregious but from ODB’s point of view I can see him being a bit upset, and then him getting very upset when he gets flagged for taunting.

Yea, I agree. I am not certain if this is actually a rule, or even a guideline, but I thought there is some protocol for certain refs trying to call certain penalties rather than all of them calling anything they see, so maybe that has something to do with it?

Yeah, he certainly bumped the ref, but usually you won’t get a flag when leaving the sideline and there’s a bunch of people around and you don’t have anywhere to go.

I completely agree, that hit was late and high and Beckham was upset, rightfully so, but maybe a bit more than he should have been. Absolutely no excuse for that to be called taunting as Odell immediately turned to the side ref to complain about the hit. He still needs to control his temper and he did an ok job after…

Kaep’s protest has nothing to do with the military, until it does it during a event, traditionally viewed as a moment of respect for the military. He has every right to protest, and I think he’s protesting important issues, and he has every right to protest during the national anthem. I think what President Obama was…

I think it’s far more likely the cocaine wore off

Agreed, that would be pretty spectacular to see.

I think it’s fair to say that white players kneeling may add some additional weight to the protest, but I think this form of protest is particularly difficult to ask others to support because it is so marred by the way people view the act of standing for the anthem. For many who had a problem with kneeling, it was…
