“It’s conservative mom facebook meme level.”

It’s not more expensive for society overall, that’s the point. When you take the dictum to make profit--and outrageous profit at that-- out of the system, the entire thing is cheaper. Less money = less money. Not to mention all the time wasted shuffling papers around from insurance companies and providers. Single…

It’s an iconic photo of an extremely famous Australian rules footballer named Ted Whitten. His nickname was Mr. Football, and there’s a statue of him in that pose outside of a stadium in Melbourne that’s named after him, so I think it looks familiar to anybody who cares about Aussie rules.

Coincidentally, approximately 300 million Americans share this sentiment.

What a coincidence. I don’t want to see a video of Robert Kraft getting a hand job. I happen to like having eyeballs.

That should count for two. He was clearly inside the three point line.

But that’s every network. Every channel has a dozen flops per hit. AMC rode Mad Men and Breaking Bad for years but they have a graveyard full of failed prestige shows. (Like the one about the train?)

Netflix’s top shows are the top shows for the same reason that TBS was surviving for DECADES with reruns of Friends, Seinfeld, Family Guy, and others. People want to watch these shows, especially to kill time. Now they can do it whenever they want, instead of when TBS wants them to.

I spend my days writing about Roombas from the 1950s, teen hackers from the 1980s, and movies that American presidents watched while in office.

Does Netflix’s interface suck ass? Fuck yes it does. Is there a ton of garbage on it’s servers? Yep. Do I get option fatigue from scrolling through the plethora of shows and movies, resulting in sometimes a whole night of trying to decide what to waste my time on? I sure do.

I confess that I don’t have much of an opinion about Netflix’s future outside of the patently clear fact that their diminishing library of popular shows from the past means they’ll no longer fit the “I’ll just watch a few episodes of X before bed” impulse that used to make them a great and cheap alternative to cable.

Embarrassed Bradley alum here... Not only do we have those degrees... We have a sports media school named after Hall of Famer Charlie Steiner. Dammit this is stupid, and Dave Reynolds has always been very fair and covered the team faithfully through highs and lows.

“That was never our expectation” is the new “That racist rant caught on tape doesn’t reflect who I am.”

Bradley is only a mid-Majors sweetheart until Janet catches him with Frank. After that, it turns into a reel horror show.

Where’s that “300 pound guys will wreck anyone in a fight" guy from the Westbrook/jazz article the other day? I need his expert insight here

If your sister, brother, mother, or father died tragically and unexpectedly would you be able to work the next day? In front of god and everyone in the playoffs? I’m not a Thomas fan, but come on dude.

Why is it surprising that the Trojans would admit people who shouldn’t have gotten in?

Next time you bitch and moan when a player holds out for a bigger contract, just remember Thomas. One injury took him from an MVP candidate to a player teams don’t even want. Perhaps the injury wouldn’t have been so lingering if he hadn’t tried to play through it. And, did he put even one extra cent in your pocket?…

I think it’s clear in the indictments that at least some of the kids didn’t know, since there are records of communications where parents are desperately trying to keep their kids from finding out.

“I want to make this perfectly clear: I never bribed anyone. I merely accepted bribes. Repeatedly.”
