But don’t you see, netting (slightly) obstructs the view for people in expensive seats.

Oh, but adding netting so toddlers don’t die, that needs to be debated.

He’s talking about the NFC Championship game for the 2011 season. And yeah, it was an excruciating loss to the Giants because it was five quarters of exceptional, slug-it-out football, decided by two muffed punt returns. I’m not sure Eli Manning has ever played a better game; because that dude took a beating to earn…

Some Taco Bell burritos hold up surprisingly well as leftovers.

There’s a charity I donated to directly, one time, about four years ago.  Every other month since then I receive a multi-page plea for more money.  Several times a year there’s like two dollars worth of quarters I’m supposed to send back along with more money.  They’ve long since wasted all the money I gave them on…

Those were precisely my dad’s first signs of dementia.  Have a nice day!

This whole thing feels like an attack on my childhood.

It was 2012 and the Niners had just lost a heartbreaker to the Giants in the Super Bowl (Kyle Williams fumbled two punt returns...)

“...simply from its television contracts.”

merely having to resign his position

“That national revenue figure of $274.3 million tells us that every single team brought in that much money simply from its television contracts”. No, that also includes league sponsorships, licensing money (apparel and other knick knacks), network radio (not all that much, but still). the Superbowl, and other league-wi…

That’s not true. Some of us like that Franken was a strong liberal voice on the hill who didn’t sell himself to corporations to the degree others do. He was good at the job. Screw Biden.

It actually does not explain anything. You have to understand that corporations hate to pay income tax. Making $100M in profit would be a huge mistake because the company would then have to give $$$ to the gubment. Most professional teams report little to no income, and in fact, often report a loss. Does this mean…

It’s a CBA rule, but it’s one the owners actually like because agents say the owners frequently point to it as an excuse for refusing to put guarantees into contracts.

I absolutely love Le Batard, because he gets it. His show with Stugotz is stupid, irreverant, and not at all serious. Just like Sports. They understand that none of this stuff actually matters, and they give sports news all of the respect that it has earned, which is to say none at all. Instead they have fun, because…

LeBatard is one of the most consistent, entertaining voices at ESPN. Suspending him would only confirm and reinforce everything he said. 

The moat-and-wall thing was settled hundreds of years ago. It goes in front for a good reason.

Said it before, will say it again: it’s not politics, it’s morality. If the greatest controversy around Donald Trump were, say, his position on revising the tax code, or even something as volatile as abortion rights, then fine, the PGA could say “whoa, we stay out of politics.” But it’s so much worse than that. It’s…
