Yeah, I always figured if you just ignore it and keep working hard, the boss would see through it. Thankfully, it worked out that way nearly every time.

There’s a lot written here and not much being said other than a weirdly hostile “stick to weighty sports issues but sports nonetheless” message.

GW Bush did do some commendable things as President, including, for example, pressing to funds to help fight AIDS in Africa. And one of those commendable things he did was to sign legislation instructing the Smithsonian to start planning for this museum, and saying he believed it should be built on the national Mall.

It doesn’t have to be a part of it, but it *is* part of it. When male (and even female) players shit-talk one another, the language is remarkably gendered: competitors are called pussies, winning is often referred to as raping another player, and any number of comments are made about the sexual behavior of…

It is mind blowing how clear Univision’s position was and how confused half of the commentariat was about what liability means.

If he doesn’t want to get hit in the head, maybe he shouldn’t wear a helmet. He’s just asking for it when he’s dressed like that.

Well, looks like it’s time to reset the “Days Since We Shit on the MLS” incident counter.

Whatever the legal standing, it’s morally reprehensible. As was outting a gay man, no matter how big of a jerk he is.

lol no. No, dude. I am here to tell you. No. Eta I hope no one gives you stars

Haha! Got those bigoted bastards! Wait, Massachusetts is arguably the most liberal state in the country? But that doesn’t fit the racist legacy of Tom Yawkey (who died over 40 years ago). Ehh, force it anyway.
