Soooooooooooooooo many people do not understand this.

Innocent until proven guilty doesn’t mean you have to assume the victim/accuser is lying. It means investigators have to figure out what happened.

As good as the Packers were today, the Jags hung with them. Everyone knows the Packers will be there at the end of the year, but who isn’t excited to watch what the Jags do? Either ascending into the stratosphere or crashing like United 93.

A simple solution: Appoint an independent counsel to investigate the problems at Baylor. I nominate William Jefferson Clinton.

You undercut this point by condescendingly calling The Ringer “Bill Simmons’... new blog” in the title. Forgive him if he didn’t realize you meant to say “Bill Simmons’ new potential entertainment media behemoth.”

I’m sure Thiel will be calling back any minute now.

But why does this matter? Grantland was great and I'm happy at least some semblance of it has returned

An important point being overlooked in Bran influencing or meddling with the course of history given the Hodor origin is how his greensight was actually used— he was warging into Hodor past and present at the same time, both in physical proximity. We’ve always known there was a special element to Hodor in his ability…

I’m not going to pile on you for pulling the plug on GoT. If you’re not enjoying the show’s direction, then no longer watching makes perfect sense.

None of your rants make any sense. It was established ages ago in both the books and the series that prophecy was a legitimate power/force in this fictional world, and the kind of time meddling depicted in this episode logically follows from the presence of that kind of power/force. The concept of prophecy entails, by…

A) Why exactly do you have such a huge problem with time travel?

Along the same lines, I went to a caucus in Colorado that was near DU and hence Bernie won the district easily. But during the caucus you also get to...eh... caucus for things beside the presidential nomination. After Bernie’s supporters tallied up a big win, like 75% of them left for the remaining votes, including,…

You are just taking numbers out of thin air.

There are two things about Sanders’ rhetoric lately that are really frustrating me and both center around the fact that he has openly talked about not being a Democrat and only running as a Democrat because it allows him to reach a broader base than running as an independent:

The really pathetic part of this whole thing is Sanders (and his supporters) railing against Clinton for taking soft money, when he’s doing the essentially the same thing by only using the Democratic party when it’s most beneficial to him as a politician. He could afford to run independently for Senator from Vermont,…

I’m fine with Bernie staying in the race to accumulate votes and show Democrats that there is broad, national support for a progressive agenda. I am not alright with him staying in the race in a desperate bid to win.

Annie Apple is the alternate-dimension Liz Lemon where her life is 100% together.

I completely disagree. For me, Dorne in the books is extremely well thought out, with a lot of politicking and deeply-laid plans. Whether or not it will amount to anything is still up for debate, but “tacked on” is the last thing it feels.

Except not really? The Dornish plot in the books is actually interesting and is leading into events happening in the next book.
