The 141 minutes between the studio logos and the closing credits.

It tries to be a film that answers philosophical questions and fails pretty hard at it. God knows critics aren’t averse to gritty or ~deep~ superheros (re : Nolan Batman, Daredevil, Jessica Jones etc). But Snyder is a legitimately shitty director. He’s a joyless Michael Bay.

I actually don’t have a huge problem with K saying what he said on the court (preferably in a vacuum where he didn’t coach Grayson Allen or mercilessly berate refs, and outside the context of the perverted NCAA landscape, but whatever). Here we like to side immediately against the stodgy old conservative-values guy…

I am a homer, so I’ll defend him quickly - this is exactly what they teach you to do if the ball does not carom out. Put your hands up as soon as you can to pin the batter to second - and keep runners from scoring of there were any on.

Cespedes’ ride to the ballpark tomorrow

Don’t the Browns have anyone advising them?!

I went and read the actual decision linked in the article and it might make you feel a bit better to know that that quote is actually taken pretty badly out of context. While I still think the judge is totally wrong, he actually is very clear to qualify his statement. The full paragraph is:

As much as the judge’s other statements are atrocious (especially the one about the “stereotype” of sexual assaults being truthful, which, uggggggghhhhhhhhh), the reasonable doubt one is a fair statement of law and the way that criminal trials should operate. If you think it’s very likely the defendant is guilty but…

that’s a poorly worded statement by the judge, but the witnesses’ credibility was severely damaged. if that hadn’t happened, then their testimony would’ve been enough to convict. if they don’t look credible, then the testimony is not worth much without other evidence to back it up.

Could not be more true. It’s infuriating, the way we’ve seemingly come to accept that working full time at the going rate for certain jobs will barely cover rent alone. We’ve accepted that if you work in certain fields, you don’t deserve a decent quality of life.

Change the headline to read:

The judge also said ‘ having reasonable doubt is not the same as saying the events did not occur’.

Thank you. Fuck this guy.

WASHINGTON – U.S. Senator Lindsey Graham (R-South Carolina), a member of the Senate Judiciary Committee, today made this statement on President Obama’s Supreme Court nomination.

They’ve kind of been resting all year.
Curry doesn’t usually even play the 4th quarter.

Praise Zeus for Deadpool. Timing could not be better for the “I am sick of super serious super hero movies” movie.

DC never listens to me. I havent seen this movie but I could tell you as soon as they announced Jesse “Double Tap” Eisenberg in the role of Lex Luthor.

Come on. This is Deadspin. Sports references!
