I know this isn’t necessarily in the spirit of these things, but all the “barely watch anymore, life is awesome!” takes are sort of tiring. I love watching football, both in terms of enjoying the game and the company it brings to my house for potlucks and such. I make sure I get my errands done early enough or on…

Even the bullpen wasn’t necessarily poorly constructed.  Coming into the season most Mets fans (myself included) thought that a bullpen with Lugo->Familia->Diaz for tight games and G’man and Wilson in the mix was the best we had in a while.

I’m 29, my wife is 26, and it is both of our favorite show. We both grew up with it on for dinner via syndication. When it was removed from the appropriate time slot, we got Hulu and continue to watch it with dinner to this day. I have some friends that dislike it, but most people I interact with love it.

I thought the rule was every team plays 1 TNF per year. Opening week doesn’t count, and the Dallas and Detroit Thanksgiving games don’t count.

Great response as always. I’d also point out that the sexism that existed during that time—which Horn admits was sexism—also had an economic background. Yet, he has no problem agreeing that people were sexist.

I get that the anthem has become the calling card for racist pricks (and the flag for that matter) but I still thoroughly enjoy it before big events. I stand, put my hand on my heart, and sing along out of tune. Sometimes I even get emotional and start to tear up because it makes me think of both of my grandfathers…

Felony murder is common in most (if not all) states. However, the article somewhat misstates it. It is only felony murder if the felony being committed is “clearly dangerous to human life.”  There are plenty of arguments on what constitutes a “clearly dangerous” felony, but the constitutionality of the law on its face…

Also, who is going to buy a 23 James or 3 Davis jersey this year when they know that it will be changed the following year. Jerseys aint cheap.

Maybe instead of increasing the complexity, simplifying it would be better. My proposed list: QB; Offensive Line; Offensive Flex; Defensive Secondary; Defensive Primary; Kicker/Punter. The teams would obviously scoff at this because a SS will make far less than a CB, but then again an in the box SS makes less than an…

Look at this guy, acting like he knows something about football or something.

I like to pretend he reads our comments and chuckles at our silly little examples, but he rarely (if ever?) comments back like some of the other staff do so I am pretty sure he doesn’t read shit.

I’m guessing the Panthers and Cardinals rankings have to do with also being the name of a team in another sport.  No idea how the Pelicans remain above the Warriors though.

New York Law Journal recently had an article about this, mainly exploring the psychology behind attorney burn out.  The most common answer partners give, as you note, is if they survived it so can you.

There is a difference between broadcast angles and broadcast replays though, right? If they reviewed the play all the way through they could slow it down and see the OPI, despite the network not showing that particular moment in their subjective replays. The clear and obvious thing is surely going to lead to issues,…

The article also mentioned that the XFL purchased a lot of AAF’s equipment (including helmets with chips for the app I believe). Crazy conspiracy: the reason Chuck Ebersol needed so many outside investors was because he is a secret investor in XFL2.0 (through blind trusts and such) and used this league as a way to…

Maybe, but again context is key. deBlasio received 9% of the population’s vote in the most recent NYC mayoral election. In Albany, the incumbent recently received 10k for a Capital city of about 100k people. Both of those cities are democratic party heavy and so there is typically a relatively low turn out for the…

My five-pound dog takes up just enough room to make me uncomfortable, but she’s still a good girl and deserves to sleep wherever the hell she wants.

He won two elections, receiving 10k votes the first time. While he lost the 2010 Indiana State Treasurer election, he garnered over 600k votes and lost by 25 points in a seat that was lost by Dems the following election by 21 points. He dropped out of the other election you’re referencing (although, ON the day of the…

Grew up just north of NYC and had incredible pizza for all my childhood. Although Brooklyn is tops (don’t sleep on Staten Island pizza though, it has come a long way!), most of the NYC MSA has great pizza. Then I moved to Albany. While good arguments may be had over the best pizza in the country, nobody can convince…

Not very soccer savvy-is there an offset mechanism that could have been applied?
