So...like overnight then?

Thank you for this comment. It really helps put the article/headline into perspective.

It isn't. But the reason those women aren't victims of violence has a lot more to do with socio economic status than marital status specifically.

Hmmm all those crime shows about husbands murdering their wives must be made up then? Damn you reality TV!

He says "all athletes, particularly at the professional level." Media availability was not stipulated in my Little League contract. It would just be a trivial mis-phrasing (and piss-poor editing) if it weren't indicative of his larger point, his only point, really: HE'S IN CHARGE.

Oh yeah, and NESN. But I actually don't think the Sox get a free ride b/c Henry owns the paper, seriously. During this shitty season, they've been pretty happy to jump on individual players (now this could mean the players are objects of specific Henry-pleasing witch hunts, I suppose, but I take it at something close…

Yeah, it's gotten terrible in the past month or so both in terms of content and user experience.

Sometimes, it just takes a bit longer to realize/maximize potential. Not everyone in baseball is Mike Trout.

"Because tradition" is the laziest argument ever. You might as well name a team the Atlanta Not At My Lunch Counter, Negroes.

This was their follow-up tweet:

They don't have to change the name. Hear me out.

Recc'ed for usage of "cromulent."

Roy Williams receives a large portion of his pay through the Nike sponsor/partnership with the basketball program and his radio show/tv deals. Probably 3-4 million when it is all said and done. He may not be the highest paid from the state, but he gets paid from other revenue sources, as he should. He is for sure…
