All kidding aside, he won’t find it to be a terribly tolerant place.

This is the correct take.

I agree that there should be a “Rooney Rule” for MLB managers; probably for baseball op’s people as well. There should, by now, be more hispanic players in the dugouts, just from a numbers perspective.

That’s why I freaking hate this story and the fact that Deadspin is (ironically) attempting to spin it in another direction. All it does is weaken those of us who make legitimate and substantive arguments against the Trump admin. and its policies, because it looks like childish nitpicking.

Incorrect - sociopaths are in fact “born evil”. The signs are there through out childhood if you know what to look for.

Bullshit. Show me the direct correlation via statistical analysis between football players and murder. You can’t because it doesn’t fucking exist - you’re just repeating one of the many “Deadspin causes” without any reason or logic.

How benevolent of you.

I don’t think it’s the NFL. It’s the people who root for the teams in the cities and states in which they play.

Kap would have been a better option, but many of fellow Bears fans aren’t very tolerant or open-minded.

Don’t like a judge’s decision = someone’s on the take.

We won’t have guys like Giannis (reminds me of vintage Pippen) playing in Chicago again so long as GarPax is running the show. “Younger and more athletic” in their collective mind equates to “plays the ‘right way’” and “never takes a night off”. Remember that these guys chose to employ Kirk Hinrich twice, including…

That’s my problem with the former Gawker sites in general. They used to be largely for fun with an occasional soapbox moment or one page dedicated to them. Now its basically one big op-ed page on political and social issues with an extremely far left bent (I am Democrat, by the way). Could we have one place for that…

In pro sports it has less to do with tenure and more to do with class. For example, they care more about Tom Brady and Antonio Brown than Matt Barkley and Eddie Royal.

Not all, but many are. You can easily live as a member of the “upper 1%” by becoming Sec.-Treasurer of the right Local and getting yourself appointed as a trustee on one or more pension funds.

I dunno why I bother posting this same statement below each article you guys write about how unfair the CBA’s in every pro sports league seem to be, but the fact that these contract terms exist at all is a product of a shitty job by the union leadership. If they were willing to take these guys out on strike they might…

Richard Dawkins was out ahead of this concept back in 2006 in his magnum opus, “The God Delusion”. If you haven’t already, I highly recommend picking it up.

Couple of dumb moves here: Jackson damaging the car and the woman throwing a drink in a guy’s face. Does this make Jackson a bad guy? Dunno. Was it a bad PR move for his lawyer to try and resolve this so early in the game?Unquestionably. 

Only of it isn’t true. There’s a lot of logical leaps being made in the reporting here, including the reporting and conclusions drawn by Deadspin.

I know its fun for you guys to pile on Snyder and company, but if he’s in rehab again his job is likely protected by the ADA and HIPPA prohibits anyone from talking about it.

I believe they are working on that over at Jezebel
