The team making the trade (Dallas in this case) still has to account for the signing bonus portion of the contract on its salary cap.

It really is so very fitting that the Browns, Jets, Niners, Bears and Bills - the ultimate shitshow franchises of the NFL - all have a ton of salary cap space and all will have to bid against each other for the “privilege” of signing Mike Glennon to be their franchise quarterback for $15 million a season. 

Same here, although I got out from Cable/ESPN a little over two years ago. I knew if I could make it through my first football season, I’d be okay. I’ll admit, it was a bit rough that first fall without ESPN, but it also helped me realize that there were very very very few college football/MNF games that I simply…

If McCloughan really is back on the wagon, the team better be careful about screwing with his job. Unless or until Trump’s Administration and the GOP dismantle the Americans With Disabilities Act, alcoholism is considered a disability. The ADA doesn’t permit alcoholics to freely drink on the job, but since alcoholism…

I seem to remember baseball players and their legal teams trying to play a similar type of game when they were accused of lying to Congress about using steroids. I don’t think it worked for them.

REPORTER: Senator Cruz, do you have any comment about your GOP colleague Jeff Sessions lying to the Senate about meetings with the Russian Ambassador?

I too skipped the speech for obvious reasons. When I saw how the press and pundit class was unanimously washing his balls because he didn’t whip his cock out and waive it around, it made me chuckle. Now, Trump knows how to manipulate these toadies into “liking” him. Wouldn’t surprise me if Trump starts doing these…

I wish things like this didn’t have to happen, but maybe some good will come from it. Maybe these backwoods hayseeds will start thinking, “Hey, maybe there’s a difference between bloviating and executing government policies. Maybe it’s not so black and white. Maybe there’s shades of gray and complexities when dealing…

Politics aside, I can’t believe that a current U.S. President speaks in such a scatterbrained manner. I can’t stand listening to him because the experience is too similar to a bullshit con artist trying to explain to me why the earth is flat and humans don’t really need oxygen and water to survive. I can’t read…

My best translation of Trump’s word-salad vomit: Obamacare is a disaster. The public really hates it, but they’re saying that they like it right now because we’re threatening to take it away. So let’s not do anything and let the public blame the political party that has no ability to do anything to fix it. Soon…

There’s an obvious First Amendment issue because it involves a public university as an employer. Requiring a person to be of a specific political affiliation to be eligible for employment raises blatantly obvious free speech/freedom of association issues. Anyone with a basic understanding of Constitutional Law should…

I know that Clay Travis isn’t very popular around here, but these two paragraphs in his recent mailbag pretty much sums up Trump:

“Well the leaks are real. You’re the one that wrote about them and reported them, I mean the leaks are real. You know what they said, you saw it and the leaks are absolutely real. The news is fake because so much of the news is fake.”

Flynn isn’t the typical Trump cabinet sycophant who has no fucking clue how the federal government works or about national security. He knew that US intelligence would be monitoring the Russian ambassador (especially after the news broke that they suspected Russia tried to influence the election) yet, the guy still…

Just imagine if the following events happened during Obama and/or a hypothetical Clinton administration:

I was wondering about this too. As I was reading the post, I started to wonder if the border agents singled him out because he was with NASA rather than his race/religion/national origin. Like maybe, um, someone from say, a hostile nation that rhymes with “Prussia,”got to someone in the current administration with a…

This is like the third article I have seen where Trump supporters are like, “Yeah, I voted for him because I hate the Democrats/regulations/minorities/snowflakes and because I was sure that he wasn’t serious when he repeatedly and clearly said he’d repeal Obamacare/Build the Wall/Deport everybody, etc.  ...

The fact that people have quicker access to opinions shouldn’t change anything. The judiciary should make decisions by applying the law to the facts of the case. Public opinion is too amorphous to play any role in the process. The legislative and executive branches are already too obsessed with and controlled by…

That’s funny because during one of the debates, I remember he was asked a question about “Mosul.” He answered in his typical fashion, using his pet phrases (“believe me ...” “folks, let me tell you ...” “people are saying ...” etc.), speaking loudly in a forceful tone and he kept repeating “Mosul” over and over and…

Sadly, I think you (and me and everyone else with a functioning brain) already knows the answer: Nothing. Not a damn thing.
