I love booze, but it’s a huge obstacle to fitness. Not only is it a ton of garbage calories, you’re also more likely to eat additional crap when you’ve been drinking (drunk munchies+impaired decisionmaking=taquitos seeming like a good idea), and to top it all off, waking up to hit the gym the next morning is way more…

I gave up alcohol for Lent this year to try to lose some weight I’ve slowly accumulated over the past 2-3 years. That, combined with more consistent exercise (which you’ll be shocked to learn is a lot easier to commit to when there’s no drinking involved) has led to ~8 pounds lost in 4 weeks.

If you haven’t put it into the fridge overnight, does it really count as “leftovers?”

As someone who spends upwards of 75% of my time within a 3-mile radius of the U.S. Capitol, I have a sneaking suspicion this information will never be of significant use to me.

If I ever get unblocked, I can tell you it was Braden Holtby

He’s only, what, a solid decade or so behind the rest of the liberal chatterati?

Not sure STL has the cap room to make that work (Fleury’s hit is ~$1.5M higher than Shatty’s), and adding Fleury would totally bone their cap for next season when Allen’s extension kicks in.

If he changes his retirement plans over this, one has to wonder if this sets the dominos in motion for a coaching carousel. Bruins pull the trigger on Julien to beat the Islanders to the punch on Hitch, freeing Julien up to escape the shitshow in Boston’s front office for Brooklyn or Florida.

at one point an MVP in each of the major sports was endorsed by Under Armour.

Escalators can never break. They can only become stairs.

The Islanders are 28th in the League in attendance, so obviously they would like to have a higher ceiling than their current average draw.

The asinine decision came when Charles Wang declined to go in on Barclay’s in favor of doubling down on the doomed Lighthouse project. Accommodations for ice hockey degrade the suitability of an arena for other purposes, so the developers quite reasonably decided to prioritize basketball and concert sightlines once…

Fans do not drive to MSG, and the train options to Barclays are similar.

This is all Charles Wang’s fault for not going in on the Barclay’s project from day one. The Islanders could be a 50/50 partner in the arena, which would have been designed to actually accommodate hockey, but instead Wang decided to double down on the doomed Lighthouse project in Nassau.

Looks like the piece has been edited to reflect this week’s rankings. Purdue is at 23 in the AP poll.

People are often members of a union and don’t feel a real connection to the union, and don’t feel that they made a choice to become part of the union

He’s not wrong.

And that’s just the optics of unions for the people they are trying to recruit—it’s even worse for non-members whose political support they want to rally.

One cannot simultaneously believe Dodd Frank is a good thing and that big banks need to be broken up without fundamentally misunderstanding at least one of the two issues, considering the former is pretty ingeniously designed to prevent the latter.
