My response would be, “Your Honor, look at the video. This jackass came running into the field, trespassing in flagrant violation of the notice given all fans. I am a public figure and he might be nuts. He might have a weapon. He came at me. I defended myself.”

Please stop interfering in our attempts to be offended on someone else’s behalf. If you keep this up, we’ll have to post something in the comments about how we were just “putting this out there” and you “shouldn’t read anything into” this.

You write great stuff most of the time. But this is tripe:

Part of lowering the bar, as you say, is there’s always someone who can look at a sweet story like this and come up, somehow, with a negative comment. (Hint, hint.)

So do women understand that this "mansplaining" happens to men too, but men have the balls to interrupt and say, "yeah, I know how that works"? Nothing gains more respect than fucking whining. Nick Martin is an enormous pussy.

Whats kinda funny about this is that if someone different than me said this (i.e. a woman), that I don’t know what it’s like to grow up a woman, I would be like, “yeah, you’re right.”

I get that it’s a weird response...but like, if a woman would tell a man that they don’t understand female development, no one would give a shit. And ‘mansplaining’ is one of the worst concoctions of a word. Can we do away with dumb shit for once?

No you’re not. You’re just proving how progressive you are by denigrating other who are actively working for progressive ideals. It’s a popular game among the crowd that believes being progressive is about branding yourself as more enlightened than everyone else instead of actually affecting real change that helps…

So the part that got me, being at the game - from right next to the visitors bullpen, all I could see was a bunch of people running onto the field carrying black flags with white lettering. It took all of 2 seconds to figure out what it was, but I wasn’t the only one in our section who thought it looked like ISIS…

You sound exactly like my sister her first Thanksgiving back from Berkeley. Sarah? If so, calll dad. He’s drinking again.

Why are we surprised that cyclepaths are killing people? That’s what they do. Haven’t you watched any of those Hannibal shows?

This was on the weather report since early Friday as a huge storm. The MS150 cancelled Day 2 because of the potential for a huge storm. I mean, I get the Houston hate, it is Houston after all, but there were warnings that it was going to be bad. It's too bad the local media has made every little issue into a huge deal…

Exactly. Despite sensationalist conspiracy reporting on how the Rams were trying to screw over employees by pulling a fast one, the more likely reality is someone missed that clause as being in need of updating.

The decision to expel him was made on Feb. 10, 2016, and a week later the UWC chose not to hear Montague’s appeal of the decision, according to sources familiar with the facts of the case.

I have this argument on kinja all the time. Even otherwise non-superstitious people want to believe in monsters and “evil.”

You know what, you're probably all right. I'm just gonna assume that the guy who makes millions of dollars because of how he's prepared his body to play baseball knows less about this stuff than a gawker writer and a bunch of commenters.
