“I need guns to protect me from the government.”

I’m not sure how you can be surprised when a large contingent of the general public just got together to elect the actual biggest idiot they could find to occupy the highest office in the land. Disappointed? Sure, but not surprised. And Donald Trump doesn’t know shit about almost anything else but he’s got some…

Yep, they paid out over $200M in 2015. Couldn’t find a good figure for 2016, but apparently they are down a bit (apparently the combination of phasing out stop and frisk, and hiring a risk management consultant after that massive 2015 have driven down new claims, but old claims are still working their way through the…

They don’t see it as waste. To them it’s the cost of doing the good work of subduing nig..uh..thugs.

I agree. Most people see “4 million” and think that’s a lot of money. It is in a way, but not really. It could have and probably should have been considerably higher. They also really got away with something by not admitting wrongdoing.

He had the monetary ability and video to backup his case. I’d argue the settlement was low.

Not really surprised the general public hasn’t equated police settlements with tax dollars and started holding these departments accountable for their behavior. Unless someone in the government literally pickpockets a 20 from them and hands it directly to a brutalized minority I really don’t see anyone giving a shit.…

James Bond is a Time Lord!

Isn’t ‘smug’ one of Bond’s defining traits?

I’m not sure its fair to say that knowing what they said is reliant upon decades old memories. Its not like the story is just being recounted now. Mushnick (and likely some others) were writing about it in the days right after. So while it is now decades ago, the memories that were only days old at the time are…

A website focusing on New York media, Bob’s Blitz, has been looking for the 9/12/01 tape for years. They believe that WFAN has, indeed, dropped those recordings down the memory hole.

And the reality is, anyone who was taping anything in New York on 9/12/01 was probably taping Newsradio 880 or 1010 WINS if they weren’t…

It’s called “The Mandela Effect.” And it is particularly interesting to me.

I honestly am not sure if you’re joking or serious. Im like 65% sure you’re joking.... I think?

Found it!

Kind of insane that the people on the message board aren’t trying to say if it happened or not, but how justified they were in saying it.

Although not a prevalent as it is today, people were archiving high-profile radio shows in mp3 formats back in the late 90s/early 00s. There were various message boards dedicated to posting 30 minute segments of Stern, O&A, etc. but those who posted mp3 tended to focus on comedy formats. I cannot be certain to…

I have a taped copy of that broadcast from that day, I remember just like it was yesterday. Mike and the Mad Dog were talking about these conspiracies.....But I fell asleep and spilled Diet Coke all over it.

He was selling drugs. He sold to all the white guys on campus ... He was the worst.”

That is the biggest myth of PEDs, that it simply makes you bigger and stronger. The reality is that the best thing about PEDs is the it massively boosts your recovery rate. Allowing you to work out harder and longer. This particularly helps older athletes, as muscle recovery, particularly fast twitch muscles is the…

Mostly speed of the court and resulting height of the ball after it bounces. Clay is slowest - it neutralizes power and the ball kicks up higher than on hard or grass. Guys like Nadal, with their ruthless spin and depth can overwhelm guys used to short points blasting away on fast courts.
