Bill Laimbeer. Bad Boy Pistons.

When you ask your barber for that hair cut, do you just say “I want to look like an asshole.”?

Say what you will about Skip Bayless, but his more successful brother makes a number of phenomenal Mexican dishes. If I had the means to do so, I would happily run up a Vince Young-style tab at one of his establishments.

In a January meeting detailed by AA...

I’ve seen happier.

I suspect it’s primarily a case of “we’ve got the cameras and the so-called ‘talent’, we’re editing hours of this shit anyhow across the national channels plus RSNs” combined with CPM rates for video ads being a lot more valuable than for display ads. So if you can get $30 CPM for video prerolls (and coordinated…

I read his statement as more of a self-promoting way to say to his market: “hey Miami/South Florida, you didn’t give me a handout but I stayed. you should buy tickets, buy merch, celebrate me as a great leader in the community (and give me all kinds of corporate welfare next time we bid to host a Super Bowl)”.

I don’t see “The NFL Management Council” just giving this over as long as marijuana remains a Schedule 1 controlled substance. They don’t want their “employees” being subject to federal crimes related to drug use and possession. They have enough concerns over the small percentage of players who get a lot of press for…

Noteworthy (and, really, the center of this dispute IMO) is that the highest-rated games are not ones for which the USSF is earning direct revenues. U.S. Soccer is not the rightsholder for the World Cup or Women’s World Cup - those are FIFA’s events. Same with the Olympics and the IOC/USOC. Gold Cup rightsholder is…

Not a fan of either team and I follow what you’re saying, but if you evaluate each as an independent decision based upon information available at that time, I can see how the 2017 actions by each team is being reported as having some merit.

I think you accidentally included the photo from the 2017 Dodge Sales Leaders of the Midwest conference.

Does anyone ever hear of establishments like Sharky’s Fun House in contexts where nobody is getting arrested?

The Texans believe that if J.J. Watt and Clowney are both healthy and Brian Cushing doesn’t get busted again for PEDs, they have the makings of one of those outstanding defenses. They could have the personnel on that side of the ball, but that’s a few “ifs” they’re relying upon.

Wow.

Obligatory: Imagine if Gronk’s body wasn’t made of the same porcelain as Kerry Wood’s.

So “Congrats, Natalie. Your performance was somewhat better than many other elements in those Star Wars-related galactic CSPAN thingies that never should have been made. For part of it, anyways...”

Yeah, elsewhere I commented that it’s a stacked deck in that regard. If you are principled, then you have to lie to gain an opportunity to take a principled stand. If you’re honest, you’re excluded. Contradiction much?

to clarify: you wouldn’t consider it “legitimate rape”, right? those are the troubling ones

Bingo. It’s definitely a stacked deck in that regard. If you are principled, then you have to lie to gain an opportunity to take a principled stand. If you’re honest, you’re excluded. Contradiction much?
