I was going to say, how about delivery sushi while you're at it!

I eat whatever I want until my pants get tight, then I eat well for a few weeks. I’m pretty sporty so this only happens 1-2 times a year, usually when it's way too hot or cold outside.

Fuck every single bit of this!

It would be perceived as racist and/or anti-Rasta - I think a smarter and more reasonable rule would be that if your hair covers the name plate it has to be tied (so as to minimize the obstruction). But honestly you aren't identified by the name on the jersey, you are identified by number. It's all pretty stupid.

Yeah, but imagine the shitstorm banning “long hair” would cause.

But he wouldn’t be entering the field for another purpose. He would be staying on the field for another purpose.

I think depending on the coin, intentionally not flipping it at all is easier than making it flip once. But really, the whole thing is stupid.

Well then the city could build the stadium and fashion it as a lease. Without a blanket prohibition any lawyer worth his salt could find a loophole.

It would be quite a stretch, because this is taxing and state spending. And it would seem arbitrary (a state can give tax breaks to Toyota for building a factory, but not for the Braves building a stadium). Can you imagine a federal law limiting how much a state could spend on libraries, for instance? I doubt any bill…

Pedantry is its own reward.

There is, at least at some level. I don’t care enough to do extensive research, but here’s one link that supports this.

Yeah, I understand everything you said. It is interesting that, as you say, in this impossible reality cities would effectively have no way of getting a team (absent expansion). I think I’d rather see municipalities avoid or reduce this through the political process rather than magical rulings of a dictator.

But the collective bargaining agreements in essence come down to sharing revenue (to some extent by percentage - maybe 50/50) and everything else is sort of peripheral. Might be wrong, but that's what I remember from the last work stoppage.

Well the owners and players share revenue, and newer stadiums = more revenue - I'm no expert but I'd say indirectly the players do benefit.

But they are. Which is the only argument (still not a good one) that these aren't all terrible deals.

Yes, he is focusing on the wrong problem, which is the president can’t just do anything he wants, including this (almost every “if I were president the first thing ...” declaration involves something that the person would not be able to do, because they confuse president with dictator...or sometime God, as in “I’d…

But OPI is not primarily intended to punish receivers who contact defenders who are poised to intercept the ball, it is to prevent/punish receivers from pushing off, etc. in order to create space and make the reception.

In what fucking world would or should the league step in to cost it's teams money? They'd probably sue and win if a league was crazy/stupid enough to do this. There is literally zero upside for the league.

So you’re just going to suck his dick instead of calling him out for his scorching hot takes? Cool.

I mean, if you tell a little child something enough it will parrot it back to you. That being said, regardless of if and how these childish hot takes were developed I guess I wonder why I should give a fuck what a 9-year-old thinks about literally anything.
