Anything happens.

The swastika has positive meanings in other ways, but you know what kind of took over the definition?  Not very different here.

That’s politics: it’s not about what you say, but how you say/phrase it. She’s not wrong, but it’s kinda like pointing out that the Swastika isn’t always and wasn’t originally a symbol of the Nazis: sure, yes, technically true, but once you tweet one, you’re gonna have a hard time being loud enough to convince anyone…

This is a company that said “posting revenge porn is OK”, “publishing the video of an apparent rape is responsible”, and “aiding the extortion/outing of a closeted gay man is good because reasons”.

Deadspin completely misses the point. Color me shocked. 

I know a lot of people are going to take satisfaction and glee from this because of Marchand’s previous actions. But keep in mind.... just kidding, fuck that guy.

I’m okay with them scoring a pile of goals. Celebrating those goals with more than a fist bump after about 5-0 just means you’re a bit of a dick.

whoa, slow down there maestro

Too many men requires discretion, there’s no other feasible means to enforce it. Offside does not. there’s a big ass blue line. One side is on, the other is off. Pretty simple.

They didn’t weaken padding rules. They instituted a rule that forced the goalies to stop cheating with bulky padding that served no protective purpose, other than preventing the odd goal.

I’d say Deadspin has consistently botched its Semenya reporting too.

And the clack clack clack of a goalie hitting the ice with his stick to signal the impending end of a penalty is one of the most underrated sports sounds.

She got caught up in the conspiracy hype-train and apologize repeatedly for it. She also isn’t wrong about not wanting Fallon Fox to compete against women. Women cannot cut weight as drastically as men can. On Fight Night, there would be a significant weight difference. Also men and women’s bodies are simply…

Paul Blest, Nicolás Maduro’s #1 fan. 

This pro-Maduro thing you guys got going on is a little weird.

I’ll quote my uncle, “I never thought I’d see the day when the right championed free speech while the left called for censorship”

You don’t get to remove speech just because you don’t like it.  Good for him for not yielding to the hysterical mob.  It’s his goddam company and he can do what he wants.   If you don’t like it then get off twitter - oh wait, none of you will!

Maybe that’s because the difference between Republicans (specifically the GOP) and Nazis is more imagined than real?

It’s got a powerful ally in the western legal tradition too. Remember kiddies, conviction by the mob and hearsay is what we’ve spent the last couple thousand years trying to move past.

You got screwed in the playoffs.  Congratulations, you’re officially an NHL franchise.
