There are some of us! And yes, it's so natural to want everything to reflect your own youth, but time marches on.

Maybe. But he’s a guy who seemingly does nothing these days but A) performing comedy and B) talking to comedians. So I’m guessing he’s not entirely talking out of his butt here.

Maybe. But keep in mind he is a comedian who’s built a career, a pretty great career, without really ever doing any material that could even vaguely be described as risque in just about any way. He’s not really a “say whatever you want” kind of guy.

TBH I don’t disagree with Jerry Seinfeld. I don’t think what he’s referencing is “killing” comedy (that’s an overdramatic characterization; if it was, then why do comedy movies draw millions, comedy TV shows draw millions, comedy specials draw millions?), but I think a specific type of collegiate thinking is creating

People were saying political correctness was killing comedy when I went to college in 1989. It’s like how people complain that MTV used to be good or when they get nostalgic about anything including gawker media. They just don’t like something and have no legitimate reason, they go on and on and on about how great it

agreed you’re really dumb

When the people are reffering to the Onion for evidence, common sense moves aren’t very common

the worst part of the story: “perhaps the best women’s soccer goalie in the world.”

I always wonder why people doing blatantly illegal things discuss them over email accounts which can be easily read later. Why the fuck would you create a trove of evidence against yourself when there are alternative options for talking to people that aren’t logged?

I live in the Seattle area. We hear a lot about Ms. Solo’s (and her husband’s) various misadventures. I believe Hope Solo should be subjected to the same punishment (in other words, kicked off of her team) that a guy would be for this many DV arrests. And she needs help.

yeah, it’s definitely the family that are the self-serving ones in all of this.

The lack of a conviction does not reduce reporting from “fact” to “opinion.”

Please try to get yourself excused from jury duty going forward. It would benefit society.

Thanks for this. I am a Seattle fan who hates that the Reign promotes Solo as the star of the team, and women’s soccer promotes her as the face of the sport. She may be a great player, but does she have to be highlighted in every promo? All the women players work just as hard and don’t act like assholes off the pitch.

The main thing that gripes my ass whenever someone does a profile of Solo is the way that her behavior, whether overtly or not, is somehow explained away or justified by her tough childhood.

OTL has been pretty willing to go after everyone, even people and organizations that make money for ESPN

If you call reporting on the details of the altercation an “opinion,” what is a fact?

It is a summary of an OTL report, which links to that report. That’s how summaries work.

Leave it to a Solo to take the first shot.

According to my calculations, this chick is nuts. She says people were calling her Ray Rice. Shes worse. Atleast Ray didnt go on a promo tour saying that he was actually the victim.
