I would think that there would be less soccer and more baseball coverage with the new “two stick sports” guidelines.

The NCAA is always skeptical of brain injuries when it comes to football. 

I agree that it would have been ugly for him to go that route, and I think the current settlement is best for everyone involved. My point was just that there was some monetary incentive for the Colt’s to sign off on the settlement, and they were just cutting him a 25 million dollar check for warm feelings.

From my rudimentary understanding of the contract situation, Luck could have to pay back his 12 mil roster bonus this year, and 12 mill of the signing bonus. If he went on the IR for the year, he wouldnt have to pay back the roster bonus and would only have to pay back 6 mil of the signing bonus if he retired next

Or perhaps his agent used the leverage of him potentially sitting out the whole year on IR with the calf issue to come to a reasonable compromise? I don’t know that attributing this all to the generosity of the Colts is warranted.

The point I was getting at was just that the article is holding these companies to a different standard than other companies, i.e. restaurants. Also, without comparing what the companies are actually paying the drivers the article doesn’t help readers actually know which drivers are being treated better. If Doordash

I mean if you tip at a restaurant, do you consider that not putting money into the waiter’s pocket because their employer will pay them more if they get no tips? The consumer here is putting money in the driver’s pocket. The company is just providing a guarantee as to the minimum the driver will get out of the deal.

In a lot of states, tipped employees are paid less than minimum wage, while the company has to make up the difference if the employee doesn’t get tips sufficient to make minimum wage, so this isn’t actually a new concept. An alternative reading of the situation is that the companies here are providing a guarantee

Somehow the record for RBIs in a single game by a starting Pitcher is 9.

They were actually doing Grey Ducknuts. Its not just a stupid Minnesota name; it’s a better form of vandalism. 

The best part is his random hot streak started almost immediately after whatever was happening on this play.

It’s inconceivable how someone so mediocre suddenly became so good....At least he’s been a real shot in the arm for the Dodgers.

I lived near the stadium in Yekaterinburg a few years ago and the packs of stray dogs are terrifying... I don’t know that putting down the packs isn’t better for everyone involved. There aren’t any cities in the US where we let large groups of large dogs roam freely. Just because pounds in the US euthanize strays one

This is too fun to not violate an unwritten rule: definitely deserves a fastball to the ribs.

Especially because there is an additional time cost of tracking everything you send certified mail. How many times do I need to log onto the USPS website making sure every mailed check was delivered before it is just easier to file the fraud claim in the one in a million chance that my letter is stolen.

So basically the cops surveilled the FSU QB for two months because he was a Blackman.

At least now her now-wired jaws are jet fuel proof.

These colors don’t run.... on any world cup pitch.

Kevin is really a Chip off the ol’ block. I really expected you to handle yourself with more Grace in putting together such a ranking.
