It’s baseball. We have to assume a couple things - like the pitcher not taking you seriously enough to throw anything with a break. But even then, if you have a rudimentary understanding of the strike zone and the physical ability to swing a bat, you CAN make contact. Beyond that, who knows.

This comment should get all the stars. WTF is wrong with people!

“Hand of Dog” as it’s known in Argentina

I made fun of the guy who drafted Blake in our fantasy league so hard. It’s early but thus far I look like an idiot! 

I really do believe that the race of the player was not a factor.

“In fact, when you think about it, it’s really the black player’s fault.  If he had just let a white boy play better, we wouldn’t be burning him in effigy.”

“Everyone in prisons says that, of course”

Unfortunately, Dixon was informed that African Americans weren’t permitted to draw certain golf courses. 

White-Collar Crime Is Apparently Not Enough To Halt An NFL Career

No doubt. (Also: Please note that I posted my comment in the first half, before the game got away from the Raiders but well into the Slobbing of the Gruden Knob. Respect my deep football knowing!!!)

But Jesus, the ESPN booth is slobbering all over every 3-yard play the Raiders successfully make. We get it -- he’s a buddy; you worked with him; he talked to you in Bristol. But for fuck’s sake -- he hasn’t actually accomplished anything back in the league yet. 

Wow. You’d almost need a player like Khalil Mack to stop a play like that.

The Belichick coaching tree sprouts another withered, lifeless branch.

You mean the fast food company that has literally been putting Bible verses on the bottom of their cups for decades now?

Ah, I know not every white QB is like that. It’s more just my frustration. They all, to varying degrees, are just talk and no action. I’m a fan of Rodgers but I’ve been disappointed that all he’s done is said a few supportive things. He, and the other “elite” QB’s of the league have immense power. That all of them…

I am a little disturbed though that the black student seems to be playing the victim.

Exactly! She wasn’t accused of assembling a bomb. She was accused of napping and the thoroughness should be on some level equivalent with the accusation. 

The dreaded Black Guy With Personality syndrome. Must be stamped out immediately.

This isn’t really hating on black people at all. It’s a group of girls having fun singing along to a popular song.

Obviously Twitter is another thing Deion couldn’t tackle…
