Pardon My Take is good only because of PFT Commenter. The rest of barstool is replaceable with a room full of drunk college sophomores (mostly from BC and BU).

When I had emotions like that, I was still 19-20 and I would say it lasted until I was about 24 which I would say is when our brains finalize their development. That and I started making friends with women who completely opened my eyes to their perspective of things.

I think your last point it the best one. My wife and I are kid-less (a conscious choice), and as a both a friend-uncle and a real-uncle, I find that parents who have friends, sisters, and brothers who take a genuine interest in their kids benefit everyone involved.

I mean, look, OK — I can imagine that it might be shocking and very upsetting if a close friend or family member of yours whom you always thought was a great person was accused of such a thing. You might have a hard time believing it at first, and be in some denial. I guess that’s almost unavoidably human; it’s hard…

Yeah, his career BABIP is 100 points higher than his (incredibly bad) .254 figure this year. He figures to improve, if only by regressing to the mean. He’s hitting a tick fewer line drives this year, but generally hitting the ball as hard as (if not harder than) he has in the past. All the major projections have him…

I guess if I’m interpreting things correctly, wouldn’t the boy also not be able to consent to sex thus making him also a victim of rape/unlawful sex?

The 2015 Royals only had one regular who hit over .300, no one with 25 HRs, one 100 RBI guy, and no full-time starter with an ERA under 3.50 (the only one was Chris Young who was a swingman bouncing between rotation and pen) or more than 13 wins.

I was that way for almost 10 years with a girl who loved the attention, loved to be in control. I made it clear I liked her romantically, she didn’t see me that way, and I should have moved on; saved myself a lot of grief. But nope. I kept putting myself in a position to be strung along.

You sound just like a Trump supporter saying that Trump’s supporters aren’t violent racist misogynists. I mean it was only one guy that punched that supporter in the face! What about all those good Trump supporters in the crowd who didn’t do anything!

Despite the fact that Simmons has, uh, limited camera appeal...

For people who rarely workout, one of the best things to learn from a trainer is technique. Lifting or performing exercises without technique will lead to injuries. Proper technique will lead to bigger gains down the road.

Collins’ blunder allowed Marcus Semien to reach third, and he scored on the next play.

All of this is just gross. Like, if Jay Z wants to cheat, fine. If Beyoncé wants to write a passive aggressive lyric about that, fine. If Rachel wants to brag about it on Instagram, fine. I. Don’t. Give. A. Fuck.

Yeah, I don’t really understand why they haven’t canned him already. It’s not like he’s even a good analyst.

Has there ever been a single case of a transgender person attempting to molest a child in a restroom? I’d be more worried about my kids spending time alone with a Republican wrestling coach.

Youtube is today’s father-in-law.

Because...?

But they might introduce them as “reality star X” or “X, from X Reality Show.” A journalist should write a story that speaks to readers at all levels of awareness of the topic — that was one of the first lessons I learned in journalism school. Identifying her as a “Canadian singer/songwriter” wouldn’t have hurt anyone…

Who is “Grimes”?

This may not be what most people consider a “household skill”, but I think that your 30s are a good point to learn the basics of childcare. Even if you don’t plan to have kids yourself, you probably have friends and family who do by that time and being able to babysit for even an hour or two will make you their…
