Society at large’s focus on how bad airports and commercial air travel are has always rubbed me the wrong way because it affects such a minuscule number of people and those people are inherently much more well-off than the rest of us landlubbers if they can afford to fly with enough regularity to even notice these…

Agreed. I really don’t see why/how the football program there didn’t get dismantled forever. I mean, you’ve just lost the privilege of having that program when your coaching staff, administrators, et al., are complicit in either child abuse or actively covering up child abuse. That’s it. And the physical  facilities…

Awful, but hey, how bout them Nittany Lions?!

Joe Paterno’s son is already denying he knew anything about this.

I hate to admit it, but this guy is right. It’s double tax (assuming it was properly taxed the first time, which, anyone who worries about estate tax probably dodged a bit).

I always hear people wanting a higher estate tax but I don’t quite understand the logic behind it taking out any emotional argument. Someone has earned the money they have and have already paid taxes on said earnings. Now they die and all of a sudden the government should get more of it? In a country that espouses…

What if my bootstraps cost $6 million?

Really? You really can’t understand why reparations would be controversial?

When people say Devos has never been to a public school, they’re not telling the whole story.

Never 4get: the whole “abortion is the most important issue in the world” bullshit is a grift the evangelicals literally focus-grouped because they couldn’t publicly complain about their real beef, that bob jones u lost tax exempt status for its cartoonishly racist admissions practices

And instead of just skipping the article you immediately knew was not sports-related, you felt obligated to not only click on it but scroll down to the comments and post a response to it.

Any white kid who went to a rural, mostly white ISD would laugh for days, and days and days at the notion that Republican lawmakers care about them getting a quality education, as compared to their drive to slice up funding for public education being about ambivalence towards minority children getting educated.

Always remember: Bad schools make future Republicans! If don’t bother to teach kids how to think, they won’t bother to learn. This locks in your base for the next generation.

Old bloviating idiots never die, they just fade away.

That gap at the end between “2nd down and 9" and “Perine checks in” is brutal

Was Musberger thinking that Mixon could offer some kind of instructional workshop on how to punch a woman to achieve the maximum impact? Does he believe that “tears” are the same thing as dealing with four broken bones in one’s face and the resulting trauma?

What does Art Briles have to do to get Brent’s attention?

I would guess, or hope anyway, that he picked up the random shooting of people who spill drinks on him sometime after completing pee wee football.

I’d be willing to bet there’s a lot of NFL-caliber athletes who are ‘bout that life’ but get caught or killed a lot earlier than Hernandez. Seemed like at least for a while he was better at keeping a lid on it.

Belichick prefers players keep their murdering to the window from the end of February to mid April. I have to feel like he would have cut or traded Hernandez as soon as he found out how far out of the calendar parameters his homicides fell.
