Exactly my point. Once the arrest is made, it should be out of the hands of police officers what happens. Bring them in, write your report, and let the prosecutors office decide what charges to file. (I realize that isn’t how it works now, logistically, but that process could change).

The best designed plays in the NFL are the ones that leave defenses with questions that have no good answers.

I don’t really understand why police officers need such broad power to decide who gets prosecuted.  Once they decide to take someone into custody it should be up to attorneys and/or prosecutors to decide whether to go forward with charges, especially in these types of cases.

Baines is the classic example of statistics not measuring the man. [...] The kind of player you never want to see at the plate if you’re on the opposing team.

“Stick with me, young man, and I promise you will one day be a recliner-owner.”

The average person has no idea how to diagnose a slow-down on their device and assumes anything that is faster will improve their performance, even if it isn’t the bottleneck, so this will be easy for carriers to sell. Won’t do jack shit for smartphone users, though.

I hate the fact that this is a real problem in need of real solutions but the people shitting on the video are making more sense than the people praising it.

This sounds credible until you realize there are a couple guys he went to college with who said he’s a solid dude. Then the house of cards comes crashing down.

Yeah, save the outrage for things that matter: like a movie changing someone’s shirt in a few countries you don’t live in.

I bet whoever said that feels pretty stupid to realize the reality of iOS games in 2018 is only $30 billion per year!

I have never been more proud to be a Chicagoan than when I saw their absence from the list of XFL franchises this time around.

Yeah, but we’re still talking about Kareem Hunt and Reuben Foster so it is important that all hot takes incorporate all 3 of these simultaneously or you’re doing it wrong. 

This is awesome. I lost it when the video got to “Play Action.”

The new Ikea store, set to open in New York City sometime in 2019, will be just like a regular Ikea, minus one small detail: you won’t be able to actually buy anything.

I think we should do the fair thing and ask that Goldman Sachs begin paying these interns immediately, instead of waiting until they leave the public sector. This will ensure people from all economic backgrounds can participate.

Here is a thought experiment: you hire someone to coach a really bad team. The players available to play all suck and no matter what the coach does, they will lose almost every game. How bad would that coach have to fuck up for you to be able to say, unequivocally, after 24 games, that he is terrible at coaching?

While some food establishments claim to have abandoned this practice, many stores in Michigan continue to offer gender-classified options to customers.

I’m not here to carry water for the Catholic church, and these “ideas” affect real people, but is important to recognize that the Catholic Church is not just spiritual resource for self discovery and finding god in your own way. It is a very specific prescription for living your life that was supposed dictated directly…

If two NFL offensive lineman cannot block Aaron Donald, then I guess it is excusable that Kenny Wiggins and Graham Glasgow couldn’t do it, either.

In the middle of the bottom third of the lead gif, there is no way the guy throwing the giant teddy bear isn’t purposely throwing it directly at the dudes head 2 rows ahead of him.
