The balk rule is easy to explain: “If, in the judgment of the umpire, the pitcher is givin’ the business to the runner and you know your momma said he shou’int, the umpire shall award a base to the runner.”

I think they would have, but Kasich pulled out after Trump said he wouldn’t attend the debate. Kasich probably realized he only looks good in debates when Trump’s there and Kasich gets to do his “oh golly gosh and heavens to Betsy, why can’t we all just get along?” act. If Trump’s not there, Kasich has to discuss…

His absence was the best thing about last season.

You should have written a longer post to help make your point

“Not in Nottingham” will always make me cry.

That sounds low to me. I demand a recount.

The purpose of the article is to express the opinion that this dude may well have no pages.

Yes, that would be what we in the business call a “joke.” I’m guessing you’re unfamiliar with When I Am an Old Woman I Shall Wear Purple?

“Unfortunately, you can’t buy the original version of the movie anymore”. Hey Disney, you own Star Wars now, right? Do you like $$$? Someone told me you like $$$, Disney.

I’ve been raped. My soul and dignity are both doing just fine.

“He isn’t paid” ... at Ohio State. Probably not at all true.

The first time I saw this commercial. And most recently just now, pulling the clip for this comment.

Honest to God, pregnant women don’t need “excuses” for drinking coffee. Or having the occasional glass of wine or beer. Or eating lunch meat. Or having cats (yes, this actually something some people try to shame pregnant women about). Or any of a host of other things. Women’s bodies don’t become public domain just…
