Your first two replies are much, much dumber than theirs.

Am I the only one who always heard of that "one third" quote as being from Sparky Anderson?

There is apparently a very large subset of sports fans who really, really love Space Jam. I find this inexplicable.

That is my favorite Hooks performance on SNL, and one of my absolute favorite sketches in the history of the show.

Our first was an unplanned C-section after about eight hours of labor (not breech; baby's heart rate dropped precipitously every time my wife pushed). Because of the prior surgery, our doctor strongly suggested that our second be birthed via planned C-section, so we did. And it. Was. Awesome. For all of the reasons…

I could not possibly agree with Craggs more than I do. For me, "Blue Velvet" is in the discussion for "most overrated film of all-time" (or possibly "overpraised," I guess). Ooh, or maybe I should say "it's the second-most overrated film of the 1980s." [/marchman'd]

What about better than toast? Better than a ghost? I certainly like your post.

Ned Yost is the platonic ideal of the baseball manager who does things just to look like he's doing something.

1. Being hit by a car.

In my opinion, pulling the entire podcast now proves that this had fuck-all to do with "journalistic standards" - after all, as someone else said, the "Dr. V" piece is still up, and that was a far worse example of failing to meet "journalistic standards" - and way more to do with the NFL saying "jump" and ESPN saying…

You've resorted to this because you know full well it's not possible to prove such a thing, considering the layers of plausible deniability he's spent the last two weeks hastily crafting. The damn tape was literally sent to the NFL months ago and, per the AP report, we know it was received. If he didn't see it, it's…

He didn't "practically" call Goodell a liar. He called Goodell a liar, multiple times. Because he is a liar. Fuck the truth though, right? We're just a journalistic organization! We've got BIZNESS INTERESTS to think about!

Simmons voices the same conclusion that 99% of the rational, non-biased public has come to, and ESPN shuts him up. Clearest indication yet that despite any bluster from individual reporters (or ombudsmen), at the end of the day ESPN is still in the NFL's pocket.

They had all weekend to get their lies straight and this was the best they could come up with?

Well, at least he's no longer handling his duties in a knee-jerk, post-hoc manner almost entirely dependent on public reaction.

Who eats a grilled cheese sandwich for the fucking "nuanced wheat flavor of toasted bread"? I eat it for the motherfucking cheese. Shredded cheese or bust.

My best friend from high school is now in obstetrics, and his reasoning was exactly the same as the first respondent listed in the post. He told me it's the one area of medical practice where the doctor is almost always giving good news.

It wasn't a cover up so much as it was a going through of the motions.

Look, all I'm saying is, if these big stars didn't want people going through their garbage and saying they're gay, then they shouldn't have tried to express themselves creatively.

Heyyyyy Bono, it's totally not a big deal, but WHERE ARE THE FUCKING T-SHIRTS?
