Dean Spanos, in the four-five years of sabre-rattling he did prior to the move, when he couldn’t extort enough money from San Diego’s citizenry to his liking, when it appeared that he would have to pay for his own damn stadium, would try to move the goalposts, and state that a move to his proposed Carson location was…

Who knew Bill Simmons had a burner account ?

Pretty much standard. It’s finding out at what point you’d take option A instead of the pile of cash. Think of the old joke:
“Would you sleep with me for a million dollars?”
“Hmm .... yes, I would, for a million.”
“Ok, would do you it for 10 dollars?”
“Of course not!”
“Alright, let’s just find your price then.”

The NFL is such a dangerous sport that even scouts aren’t immune to CTE.

Very funny staged, but pretty terrible if practiced. Towing with just a parking brake is one thing, it’s just going to skid a little bit and won’t damage anything seriously.

It’s not. But it’s polarizing and divisive so journalists bloggers are all over it.

Its frustrating to be sure, but towing these trucks out of the way is just going to result in violence. The kind of bro-truck, redneck mentality that leads to them ICE-ing, comes with a hearty helping of macho posturing as well. 

Lucky the game was in Washington. If it were in Philly, the kid would’ve thrown his beer in Sudfeld’s face.

I mean, we have literal evidence that Snyder can’t see the forest for the trees. 

Thank you for reporting on this.  Not sure why we continue to lionize law enforcement when they don’t do basic things, like assisting citizens known to be in danger.

What do you expect from a man who grinds rhino brains and inserts the dust into his urethra in order to speak with ancient Egyptians?

I thought host cities were traditionally chosen on the basis of where Matt Lauer sees himself wanting to grope the local population in 4-8 years.

Give him a minute. He's dictating it a letter at a time.

“And yet Drew Brees, despite coming up short his entire life, was able to overcome this adversity to win tonight. He wears his shortcoming like a mark upon his cheek, but doesn’t let the detractors prevent him from winning.”

We were the same, except we put diapers on “subscribe and save.” Diapers were stolen from our porch. DIapers arrived late. Then we realized we were pretty good at predicting how long a pack of diapers or a can of formula would last, and just bought everything at Costco, a company that objectively does NOT suck.

So hold on, a girl who is trafficked and preyed upon, forced in prostitution, kills a man who picks her up, is given over 50 years, but a grown ass man killing his girlfriend, pouring bleach on her, and not calling 911 until she’s definitely dead only gets 3 years? Yeah, I can definitely see how he’s more capable of…

Jettisoning a star receiver in a pass-happy league

Forgive me for being serious for a moment. I’m sick of reading this assumed fact that participation trophies are useless. Maybe they are bs to a lot of kids but I’ve coached youth and HS for a long, long time and they mean a lot to some of the players on the team. You never hear about it because their asshole parents…

Mike Tomlin stands on an NFL football field during live play...you think he’s gonna be told where he can and can’t stand at a high school football game?
