If you’re going to quote the Kavanaugh confirmation hearings, please cite appropriately.

Yea for you. The majority of Americans did not get any pay bump. Most companies simply enjoyed the bump all by themselves.

So we’re supposed to believe that the government is capable of coordinating complex conspiracies, like running a sex ring and planting pipe bombs, but that an individual man can’t paint his sock to make it look like blood?

Can it really be a meltdown if he’s basically always like this?

I don’t have a lot to add on this particular story.  I just wanted to thank you for the thorough and well-thought out reporting you’ve done on these issues over the past few years when so many other journalists try to half-ass it because complex coverage of an issue like this is too hard.  Your reporting is a major…

Why have access when you going to do nothing with it?

We had a Halloween wedding a few years ago, AND I was pregnant, AND it was not dress up/theme. Fuck. That. At least give me something to be entertained by!

I’v been really disturbed by the reaction from much of the skating community—people insisting that Coughlin shouldn’t have been suspended after the accusations were made, or that the public shouldn’t have been made aware he was under investigation.

“to cast him as any less cosmically talented than those guys might be leaning a touch too heavily on the ‘GRIT’ narrative.”

I love the article (and, as always, the increased presence of tennis here on the site), but personally I think this might be a bit of a hot take? One thing to remember is that before the ascendance of the Big Four as we know them there was a very real time when Murray was seen as the next big post-Agassi guy - while…

I hate Roethlisberger. Can I get out of the greys or what? I generally behave around here.

Because when you have two of the best skill position players in the game, you definitely have to side with your brain-made-of-jelly, held-together-with-duct-tape, soon-to-be-retired, whines-and-throws-everyone-else-under-the-bus, rapist, gray-dicked QB.
