He’ll address those inconsistencies in his upcoming book, Not Only Just the Tip-ping Point

Gladwell has made an absolute killing by writing “Maybe just trust your gut” to boomers who just wanted confirmation bias that everything they think is right anyway.

Also, you don’t need a PhD to understand child rape/molestation. Paterno was a force and an institution at Penn State. He didn’t do that by being a kindly…

In Gladwell’s defense, the Penn State coaching staff and administration probably spent more than 10,000 hours raping children and ignoring it, so he’d have to reject the entire premise of one of his own books if he didn’t recognize their expertise in the field.

“I’ve kicked a lot of balls over the years. I’m not reinventing the wheel.”

If you’re going to make a joke about this it has to be funnier. I don’t make the rules

God. Look, it may have gone off the rails at the end of the series (even though it was still incredibly well-acted), but when it first started airing, Battlestar Galactica was some of the best television ever, anchored by two of the best actors, Edward James Olmos and Mary McDonnell. Sure, it’s been ten years since it…

Another streaming service that’ll be relegated to the dust bins of history. That implosion is getting closer and closer every day. I’ll stick with the classic and Moore series on Netflix. 

I like the thought of outraged Dolphins fans taking to the streets and burning arguably the coolest 90's Starter jackets.

It was pointed out on Red Zone yesterday that this was the last Raiders home game until after the World Series, which means it’s (probably) the very last NFL game to ever be played on a dirt infield.

that other game is the reason we drink. awful

That game last night is the reason we watch football.

Lesson that everyone needs to learn: just because someone agrees with you and your platform on one thing doesn’t mean they agree with you and your platform on all things. Not everyone follows a tribalistic mentality.

Yeah, that and his other shitty views are for sure why they picked him to appear. She didn’t even bother to prepare a counter argument because she was so sure he’d be on their side of this too.

It’s not irrelevant from an academic standpoint. Famously good sports teams, particularly basketball and football, which as we’ve seen are predominantly black, even at schools where black students make up 2.4% of the population, are a draw for students of all kinds. And drawing more students means more tuition and…

Because she’s an indignation-based life form?

I don’t get your point. Because much/most of the revenue generated by big-time athletic programs is plowed back into athletics, it somehow wouldn’t be worth it for HBCUs to get that money?

Gareon, my Raidered son
You’ll be kneed when you are down
Lay your weary head to rest
You’re going on I.R.

Doesn’t Fox News keep Diamond and / or Silk on retainer, sleeping in a little room just off camera, for just such an emergency?
