And threatened a group punishment if he didn’t do it, that’s brutal. Nothing like prison yard psychology of turning groups against the individual. Not really sure what he was supposed to learn here, other than ‘fuck these coaches’. Get him to run some laps or do extra PT, sure, but maybe just cut him some slack if he…

Set aside race. Set aside religion.

Having graduated (twice!) from an SEC school, it really floors me that there is a multi-million dollar endowment for athletics along with huge budget shortfalls for academics.

Because America treats sports like a religion? 

Reports say the student missed a “voluntary workout”, which led his coach to impose this punishment at the next workout. Which makes me, as someone who never played high school football, wonder why coaches go apeshit at players for missing *voluntary* activities. THAT’S the infraction that would prompt a coach to…

The Jews in the Bible were *very* strict about their food - the serious ones, anyway.

Outside of logic, this makes sense. But tell me: why are the animals forbidden to the Jews in the Bible also the animals most likely to cause food-borne illness? Coincidence? Repeatedly?

I’m reminded of a CAD software supplier that built a large secondary sales (VAR) following and then decided that those contracts, previously too small to bother with, were a growth opportunity and cut most all of them off. And with that they created a huge supply of sellers for the competitor’s software, sellers who…

I don’t know why, or how, the bookies picked these people

“Yes, but when your peers/betters publicly call you out about your use of the term, and you want to still work with them, you have to make changes.”

Did I miss somewhere that there are any chefs who give a single fuck what Fieri calls himself?

Maybe they eat about 7 servings of steak a month? A serving of protein is 3 oz, which would be about 21 oz, but at least that’s closer.

Been married a while, so it’s been 20+ years since I’ve been in the market, but I’d hope I wouldn’t slam the door on a potential relationship because of this. My wife doesn’t like seafood (except shell fish); I wish we ate about 300% more of it. We make do just fine.

You are either cooking it wrong or eating the wrong cut/grade of steak. Assuming its a steak-worthy cut (strip, ribeye, etc.) cooking it further would only make it tougher/drier

Yeah, I’m maybe willing to buy that it’s a sign of something (for example, that they are not too up their own ass to care about what people think when they order food, or that they’re not super adventurous about food) but I don’t think it would, on it’s own, be an actual red flag.

Within months of his appointment as CEO in April, Spanfeller fired or pushed out the only women and people of color previously on the executive team, and brought in six former colleagues, all white men, from his days at Playboy, Forbes, and Ziff Davis, to fill leadership positions, as previously reported by Deadspin…

One sales executive alleges she lost half of her assignments after the CEO replaced her with a former colleague from Playboy.

Good advice but keep in mind this was written by a person who works for Jim Spanfeller.

I periodically try foods I dislike, just to see if I still don’t enjoy them. But overall? I’m an adult, and I do the bulk of my own cooking. I feel no need to eat things I don’t like. And since my aversions tend to be texture based, I can generally tell if I won’t enjoy something.

I new I went wrong somewhere. thank you for identifying the misstep.

I think the most disgusting thing about this whole mess is the fact that Amazon is still showing ads during her broadcast and taking all of the money. They didn’t shut off her ads. If they did that, this would be a lot less controversial. But as is, they’re literally stealing the money she’s raising.
