Because the video makes you uncomfortable. Sexual assault is a crime that is vastly under-reported and not taken seriously. The problem in this equation is not making someone feel sad and depressed that the news isn’t sanitized enough, the problem is that women are ever laughed out of police stations or pressured not…

No, he shouldn’t have “known better” than to date Ms. Gloria Gowan. Whether or not Mr. Matt Barnes decides to commit a criminal act is his own responsibility and nobody else’s. This is the “she shouldnt’ have been wearing that” argument dressed up to be presentable for polite company.

Playing the Goodell’s advocate for a second, I can actually see why the “integrity of the game” bullshit is actually upheld - the language of the bill does carve out a gambling exception for fantasy football but also makes it as much of a pain in the ass as possible for gambling interests to impact the games…

Alright, nothing but love for the big man, but I’ve never been to a rehab place. Wouldn’t it be possible to just have someone, you know, ride along with him in the car to the games/hang out in the locker room to keep him honest? Maybe I just don’t know how rehab is supposed to work but it just seems strange that…

Not that it justifies the response, but did anyone ever figure out what Harper said right before Papelbon went at him? Just curious as to if there was anything to actually set him off or whether Papelbon was just gonna choke him out no matter what

I’d prefer they hire someone twice as racist but half as much of a stuttering idiot who won’t shut the fuck up or inhale to take a breath

The Revolutionary War? The one where we had the benefit being France’s Contras in a proxy war with England and giving us shit tons of materiel, military know-how (esp in terms of artillery & fort architecture) and manpower in the form of “adventurers” who would migrate to the new world, join up, and no way France…

This is the reason why I defend Obama to (liberal) people who think he’s one of the worst presidents ever because he didn’t accomplish this or that. Two of the most disastrous presidents this country has has are Bush Jr. and Reagan, and it’s not really because of their political beleifs - it’s because of a fundamental…

That still image is great. On video the catch looks great, spectacular. In the still photo you just cannot force your brain to beleive he’s going to catch that ball.

Exactly. While it might seem odd to worry too much about conventional warfare with another nuclear power, I’d be you a trillion i-told-you-so’s that if we’d spent the money on conventional materiel for ourselves and allies, Russia wouldn’t feel free to grab bits of whatever country it likes, and the middle east would…

Why is it always dudes who are obsessed with the idea of people faking trans to get into the wrong restroom? Maybe it’s all a smokescreen and what they’re REALLY afraid of is smokin hot ladies pretending to be FTM trans and getting all pawsy in the bathroom

Pretty much every MMO post-WoW ran into problem 2, though. There just isn’t a way that you can justify the horrific years long money-sink that is MMO development. You’re going to end up with a product, that if you’re lucky, is better than release WoW, and WoW has benefited from years of mods and patches/expansions to…

Did you work on the relased RPG or the Copernicus project? Having played the RPG I’m sad that they went on the morepigs bandwagon because that game was pretty cool. You could tell some of the systems there were laid as groundwork for a more MMO-ish crafting economy, but as far as I got into it before ADHD’ing out…

There’s probably a couple instances where you’re straight out asked to shoot up a crackhouse or do a mob hit but when I see straight faced news guys playing and doing nothing but shooting cops and hookers I assume something is wrong with those people, because that’s never really how I play.

Unionize or change jobs. It’s scary and the climate in the US is particularly bad for unionization but unless you are literally world-renowned talent (and even then, NFL players get shit deals compared to MLBs because their union is weaker) or your company literally cannot function without you, the only pay rise you…

I went to a Catholic school. We were imparted with such wisdom from the priests (several taught classes) as “don’t have premarital sex, but if you do, don’t use a condom because it’s 2 sins instead of 1” and “if you get pregnant don’t get an abortion because you will love your baby and the community will support you…

Man, now I finally understand what Ms. Dolezal was on about. Sign me the fuck up for some cornrows, stat.

It’s also worth noting that while much is made of “thug culture” or the idolizing of gangsters, the real O.G.s came from a different sort of ghetto - the Irish and Italian ones.

Genetic disorders are not drugs.

Number one, and most importantly, shut the fuck up, you’re an idiot.
