Great read. Thank deity that I met my wife during the MySpace/Facebook social media age and not the Tinder/Twitter/OKCupid age.

They would have lost in the first round or not even made the playoffs without A-Rod in 2009. The fact that Matsui got MVP (especially for how baseball does it by round instead of cumulatively) is a travesty

Which is insane. They don't win in 2009 without him. They are retiring Andy's number, who HAS ADMITTED TO USING STEROIDS and for longer than his original claim of twice to come back from an injury.

"Let's retire a guy who admitted to steroids number while we try to screw A-Rod out of all of the money he earned and demonize him!" - Yankee logic

God damn, NFL teams are petty and stupid. He bobbles it and gets cut. If he didn't make a play for it, did his role, and the ball was still turned over, the pundits would have analyzed his "lack of effort" and he would have been cut.

Robert Kraft backs Goodell, Belichick, and Israeli Apartheid.

I am shocked that Blank is on that committee and not a Rooney or a Mara.

Except for the "she's wowed" it sounds like my sex life

Personal experience: Dated over a year. Moved in. Proposed another 2 years later.

Hopslam was the only beer that was made me say "Wow!" Only because I live in a region that doesn't get it and I had now idea how smooth and light tasting it is for a ten-percenter

So a photoshoot makes everyone hate him?

Someone please sell your A-Rod hatred to me? Why do you dislike him? I am curious especially after the MLB's headhunting last off-season.

David Ortiz. Take the arrogance of Pedro (without being one of the greatest ever) and the attempt to steal Manny's personality (without it being natural). Couple that with Boston sports fandom and the fact that he was on all 3 WS teams. Ugh

Then please explain all of the pictures of white people brandishing guns in public in open carry states?

It has to be a factor in how you approach the situation. But black with a gun won out

It's hard to know what is apporpriate when their bosses are allowed to have racist and Islamophobic hearings during the day!

We missed out on Patriots Schadenfreude Day this year. I will happily revel in the Tiger Woods Schadenfreude Year(s)

A new word would be better, but no one has ever verbally acknowledged, or antagonized me about, the use of the word. Everyone seems happy to go along with it. Language can change. Yes, there will be the few pedants that will #Actually you, but they would do anything to silence.

To the second point of your original post, make "guys" gender neutral. I instinctively use it for groups of men, groups of women, and mixed groups. It works!

Don't get me wrong, he could have easily said "victims of assault" and been fine. If the author was a lawyer, it might make sense due to male and female being more "legally accepted."
