“Mother likes her food very hot” Anyone else remember the old Pinkham Kitchenette column?

My (54-year-old) cousin calls his wife “Mom” and “Ma”. They don’t have kids.

I haven’t read one of these players contracts. If the clause is in there and both parties signed it, it’s legit. It doesn’t make it less stupid.

Maybe he’s friends with my Dad. In 1983 my friend and his brother bought two ‘69 Mustangs, and put the motor and front clip from a coupe into a fastback with no motor and damaged fenders. They did it just for a fun project and wanted to sell it for cost - $950. Dad: “You don’t even have your license yet. And you…

“Move over”? What - onto the shoulder?!!

The contract is (or should be) for the player to, you know, play.

Clearly I do. If this is negotiated into the contract then there’s not an issue. It just seems batshit crazy.

Exactly. And as such, the team shouldn’t have to pay for a player who can’t perform. Unless that inability comes as a direct result of his employment. Busted leg while turning a double play? Paid. Busted leg while skiing? Good luck. Hit in head with fastball and killed? Here’s a check. Drive Jeep off cliff? …

In a completely open Jeep? Someone not terribly bright.

Guaranteed money if you play the sport for which you are paid. Or if you are injured due to playing said sport and can no longer play. But if you’re dead? That’s fucking preposterous.

Goodell makes $30 mil a year. Brady could shit in a helmet, make Goodell put it on, and then dance around him, and I think Roger would be OK.

“I gotta say that “Matty Ice” is the stupidest, lamest and weakest nickname in NFL history”

You can call Stiller fans a lot of things, but quiet ain’t one of them.

Finally, a way to make soccer interesting!

Yeeeaaahhh... it’s definitely the Republicans that riot and burn shit down whenever a court decision or election doesn’t go the way they wanted.

National Review’s official editorial position on the election was “Never Trump”. Very few of their writers were even remotely in favor of him, and they are still worried about what he does long-term to the Republican brand.

I saw LDT on NFL Network this week. Did that guy play without a helmet or something?

Wait, those things weren’t built solely to shoot car chase scenes in?
