Sure, that’s all well and good, as long as it’s easy for people to get them, which it isn’t always.

Because it suppresses the minority vote, in that minorities are statistically less likely to possess the kind of photo IDs required. For instance, if you live in an urban area or are too poor to afford a car, you likely don’t have a driver’s license.

In person voter fraud is also exceedingly rare. Think about how…

Well said. In particular that it has no forward trajectory. I tapped out right after season 5.

Also, UConn isn’t an AAU school.

Very true. It’s been bothering me a lot lately that we can’t keep in-state talent and don’t have the football gravitas of OSU or Michigan, etc., despite our history in the sport. Then I realized that, up until the 70's or so, we basically played a Patriot League schedule. When I allow myself to dream, I think of a…

From the article: “By signing on Rutgers, the conference’s lucrative television network was able to ... bring[ ] the Big Ten Network ... to basic packages in the New York and New Jersey markets.”

You can’t go as heavy with dumbbells, so you won’t get as much of a stimulus. If absolute strength and size (i.e. be as big and/or as strong as YOU possibly can be) aren’t your goals and you’re generally just trying to be fit, you’re fine. Also, you can bench without being spotted. Possibilities are (a) don’t go super…

Nope, most would disagree. Barbells are free weights.

I wish he would be a bad memory, but even if he loses, here’s the problem: (1) he’s brought the bigots out of the woodwork and emboldened them; (2) he and Ailes are going to start Trump TV, an alt-right news network (his angles are always publicity/branding and profit — that plays into both).

Had the same thought this weekend.

It’s like, my heart says ketchup, my head says mustard. I also use way less ketchup these days, maybe because I’ve grown up, maybe because my wife hates it.

This is a really excellent post, and my comment is largely tangential, but I thought it was worth discussing - would you count WW2 as having an impact on civil liberties? I don’t think it’s crazy to say that, if the US didn’t become involved in WW2, the Axis potentially wins and either becomes an imminent existential…

I don’t agree with you and my disagreements have already been stated very eloquently by others, but I just wanted to sincerely commend you for how you’ve handled this discussion. It’s super rare you see honest, intelligent discourse in a comments section and I think you’ve done a really awesome job fostering that…

+9" you magnificent bastard

You do make a great point re motivation. I have a home gym set up and I love it and use it frequently. However, there’s the occasional night where I really don’t feel like training (I’m tired, unmotivated, etc.), but I KNOW I need to get in a workout. On those nights, I get in the car and go to the gym I belong to,…

This is great advice and gives me an excuse to post pics of my pride and joy (my home gym set up): http://imgur.com/a/lY6yf

Of course, the difference between this picture and a picture of an African American man being lynched is that one would depict an actual thing that happened. Fuck Crowell for the post, but fuck Loomis for his response.

Good lord, I hope this gets the appreciate it deserves. Miss you H-Dog.

Asians, Mexicans, Native Americans, etc. aren’t targeted and murdered by police at a highly disproportionate rate.

Yea, so you should probably stop doing it then.
