Being designated as a recruit is not the same thing as receiving a scholarship and thus does not require actual participation in the sport at the collegiate level. Plenty of college athletes, including those in revenue-generating programs at large schools (i.e. big time football and basketball programs) but…

Shorter lines at TSA? Vacation hot spots less crowded and largely free of #MAGA chuds? Sounds glorious!

*Disclaimer: only valid if your parents are already rich, if your parents are poor then you’re SOL

Remove one of the p’s though and it’s an accurate (if grammatically incorrect) descriptor

to be fair the onus apparently isn’t on twitter comedians to sue million dollar companies, rather the onus is on said twitter comedians to treat outright harassment from million dollar companies as “good-faith negotiating” though it’s not as if that’s any better

While there is enough anecdotal evidence to back that up, we don’t actually have statistics to know that for certain precisely because NRA-backed politicians have made it damn near impossible to compile or study any comprehensive statistics about gun violence

It’s all about giving him enough rope to hang himself. He’ll break the gag order and find himself remanded into federal custody, and at no point during his subsequent trial and sentencing will he have any credible grounds to claim that his being jailed prior to and during his trial was unfair or improper.

The only Costco item that’s truly on my “DO NOT BUY” list is the 24-pack case of glass-bottle, made-with-actual-sugar Mexican Coke. And it’s not because it’ll go bad or it’s not a good price, it’s just because I’m too weak to resist the temptation to drink at least one a day when I otherwise have soda maybe once a…

but if it’s a hot dog that raises an even bigger question - is it a sandwich?

To be fair re: Yakupov, it’s hard to fault the Oilers there (unless you want to make the argument that they failed to develop him properly). He was the consensus #1 prospect in that draft, whoever won the draft lottery was going to take him first it just happened to be the Oilers. It’s not like they went off the board…

That trade is actually incredibly damning of Chiarelli because he traded a better forward (Hall > Johansen) for a considerably lesser defenseman (Jones >>> Larsson)

The dudes were clearly pissed about the Cowboys losing and decided to take out their frustration on the waitress. Which means that not only are they complete douchebags for the shitty tip and “fuck you” note, but they’re also pathetic fucking losers for deciding that the best way to deal with the disappointment of…

So when the Cardinals go 3-13 (or worse) again next year does Kingsbury get turfed after just 1 season, or does that only happen to non-white coaches in Arizona who fail in their 1st season with absolute shit rosters?

Based on absolutely nothing, I feel like the main reason that the school is in Indiana is to force Irish Catholics from the northeast to live in the midwest for a few years

do you feel embiggened?

I also grew up in Chicago in the late 80's and 90's, and as a Chicagoan there is literally no middle ground - you are required to either love or hate Notre Dame, completely and unconditionally, regardless of whether or not you have any semblance of a connection to the school. I grew up in the hating Notre Dame camp,…

Given the score and his lack of confidence in the kicker, I understand the reasoning behind calling the fake field goal instead of actually kicking it. But the second Clemson lines up in a standard defensive set and makes it abundantly clear that they expect and are ready for a fake it becomes absurdly stupid to keep…

All of these are excellent points, and I fully agree with the entirety of your post. There is one additional point I’d like to raise as well - how much more complicated and dangerous it becomes for the officers responding to the active shooter situation if there are armed “good-guy” civilians involved. Will an armed…

There is literally no possible way that Mitt Romney has ever had even a fraction of the coordination required to dance like that for the amount of time that elapses in that clip without either falling over or kicking someone (or both). He couldn’t even handle being the guy in the hat on the far left, middle-school-slow…

The Berlin Wall actually worked reasonably well for what it was intended to do, the biggest difference between it and the wall that MAGA dolts want to build (aside from the logistical nightmare you point out of making it over 200x longer, which in and of itself makes it a practical impossibility to build) is that the…
