Y’know, he seems like the kind of guy who’d throw batteries at Santa too. Has he considered moving there?

An old Straight Dope column.

It’s kind of a symptom of idiocy that he uses the same password for everything. (Does anyone know what bank he uses?)

I disagree. Goodell could have given a stock answer (such as violating a guy’s privacy is bad, hope that all players are treated fairly, etc (although hearing him say that 2nd bit would be near miraculous)). Instead he chose to hype the brand and take any non-negative attention the league gets. I get that much of his…

It’s even better that the stuff is legal in states with NFL (and other leagues) teams. So if a player has a road game in Denver and wants to unwind afterwards, the state of Colorado doesn’t care, coaches and other players don’t care, but if you put that demon weed in your body then Roger Goodell will punish the shit…

And I screwed up myself too...

Wait, what? ‘Kiki Hernandez’? That’s a hell of a mistype.

Sadly that movie is a documentary.

At this point, I’m just glad that the allegedly ‘gross’ video doesn’t feature a compound fracture. That shit nearly traumatized me as much as it did Ware.

Did they ask OJ Simpson the same question? Or are the players and drafts of the current era too disparate to make much of a comparison?

Do people seriously not run a quick spell check before they permanently get a word etched on their body? I kinda get foreign language/symbol stuff being wrong since the research is more involved even if you are still stupid. But a simple English word? One that’s only 5 letters long? Does Nick Young sign his name with…

I’m not saying it was drugs, but it seems the dude had a long suspension for using drugs. It was totally drugs.

The 27 Club is real! I dunno about baseball but I think the death makes him an all-time great pitcher.

Isn’t that basically the secret motto of the Republican party? Like the one you learn after the secret handshake?

I feel so sorry for Snopes nowadays. Debunking all the political bullshit from the right wing is a Sisyphean task, especially one the Teabaggers jumped in.

You’re giving them way too much credit. The whole ‘thought’ process is just a variation on good ole’ “gays are icky.” There’s no actual reasoning there other than people different from us are bad and scary and dangerous.

This is what I don’t quite understand. He’s making ESPN look awful and he keeps doing it. With plenty of former players out there it isn’t as if he’s irreplaceable as an analyst. Why not fire him (or fail to renew him if his contract is up soon) and put in someone who isn’t an overt bigot? There would be a few whiners…

If it were really a D&D soap opera, GRRM would just say “Fuck it. Rock falls everybody dies.” and be done with it. (Honestly I’m secretly hoping that’s how things end- White Walkers win and Westeros becomes a giant glacier.)

I’m not a hockey person but 0% sounds right. Even if the franchise (and the city for that matter) is embarrassed, canceling a game (especially a playoff one) is leaving a lot of money on the table. Unless there’s a real and obvious danger to fans I can’t imagine it happening.

Personally I’d be a lot more worried about the terrifying sentient cars. They’re totally on something; just look at the size of their pupils.
