Ahahahaha wait, you’re serious?

Or, alternatively, I can just move to a sane country where the cops don’t think they’re Steven Seagal from the 1980s like you! (I may have already done this).

lmao

The Super Bowl and general playoffs were a distraction om the fact that the league is ignoring the CEL on its dashboard, even as it’s gone from “comes on sometimes” to “blinking red”. They’re accelerating the demographic shift away from football.

“interesting new curriculum” - Koch bros’ ish?

We have the answer for this from the 1992/93 Blue Jays. Because they’re mostly Americans they would get an invite. https://deadspin.com/5811376/if-a-canadian-team-wins-a-title-will-they-visit-the-white-house

I... I think it might be the other way around. Deadspin posters haven’t defended people like LT or Sapp, as far as I can tell...

More women armed teachers!

+ one of the hardest schedules left and two games against HOU and GSW each. Still don’t think they’ll crash out because NOP exists, but they’re going to be a low seed and definately won’t keep #3

the side effect here will be that teaching in the southern states will be reduced to a bunch of people who should never be teaching, never mind owning a gun

Eddie the Eagle. The rules were immediately tightened to prevent anything like that happening again.

you can reasonably assume that ME and NA make up little to nothing of that total

Very good points. I was just thinking about Thomas being the last one picked, being 5'8"*** (lol)... it’s been so long that you really forget Rondo had his own shit too

In terms of how much players like them, it’s probably a dead heat. Remember when the Mavs specifically voted against giving Rondo any share of the playoff money? Isaiah at least has a reason to have a huge chip on his shoulder and “unwarranted” self confidence - it’s the only reason why he’s there.

They can employ it, and then come up with an alibi for having used something else.

they had a bug in British Columbia where attempting to call 911 on their 5* phone rebooted it

Not that it was expected, but this isn’t really totally unexpected. Netanyahu has begun to cater more and more to the religious extremists within Israeli society, and Yesh Atid are a nominally middle class and secular party. (It’s basically “The Democrats” as a party - “some” settlements are fine, but we should have…

I am still unconvinced that Bettman wasn’t a secret agent sent by David Stern to tank the popularity of hockey in the USA

I’ve said this before and said it again - newspapers can’t complain no one buys them when they think it’s good to spend money on people like this, “feudalism is good actually” advocates like McArdle, perpetually offended conservatives/Woody Allen advocates like Bret Stephens, warlords like Eric Prince...

That sounds like a great joke to the classic rock/”edgy” morning zoo demographic.
