Seahawks wouldn't get called on it.

Couldn't agree more. The Force/Jedi/Sith aspect of Star Wars has always been the least interesting part to me. It's annoying that it became the sole focus of the series with the prequels. I hope Episode VII spends less time on it, but I'm not holding my breath.

Because they're no longer really in Atlanta.

Good fucking riddance.

Bryce Harper is just a special, once-in-a-generation talent, something he has proven time and time again in his short career. He deserves so much more than to have announcers mildly poking fun at him, or to be jeered by fans of his team's biggest rival. What other athlete has ever faced such unfair treatment?

"YOU are reading into the video. He was less concerned about her well being and more about how his violent outburst was going to affect him."

Of course, as soon as I published this comment, I received a funny, well-written message from a very attractive woman. It's good to know that my Internet commenting is having an impact!

As a guy, I try to avoid generic messages like this. It's certainly more effective. That said, it can be frustrating when you put a lot of work into coming up with ten uniquely clever messages for ten uniquely clever ladies, and your efforts are rewarded with ten instances of "so-and-so visited your profile" and zero…

But the acting is so bad that I don't know how you could watch it and not realize that it's scripted.

I liked it, except for this part:

It's common for abused partners to stay with their abusers, and having this situation play out in the media spotlight can't make it easier to deal with. I'm not trying to downplay that. At the same time, it's fucked up that so many people assume that an adult woman couldn't possibly feel the way she says she feels.…

Yeah that stat is just insane. I wonder if that's some kind of record.

I just want to know why there is a tiebreak rule that takes effect only after THE 54th INNING!

Hope they have insurance!

Jesus, watching these fuckers try to reason their way out of moral culpability for the theft of others' livelihood is depressing. Glad you're up to the task of arguing with them, cause I would've given up.

I guess I sort of see the logic, but I can't imagine it actually works out to the players' (even the non-superstars') advantage in the long run. I guess it just seems like such a contrived way for the owners to limit the amount of money they have to spend on labor, as opposed to actually paying the players what…

Why would a players' union actively lobby for max contracts or salary caps? If they did they'd be a terrible union, right? I mean, I'm not saying you're wrong. Maybe the NBAPA is a terrible union.

Which part?

Social Anxiety Disorder is a real thing, at least it's in the DSM. I have it. It used to be much worse, but after years of therapy I've gotten a lot better at handling myself in situations like this. I am still an introvert, and I still sometimes get anxious around strangers, but I'm able to deal with it in a much…

Except law isn't really accurate. FromWikipedia:
