All he had to say was “I meant to say ‘inmates running the asylum.’” As much as so many people around here wish otherwise, that is a thing that people say that speaks to power dynamics with no racial overtones. I use the phrase every chance I get in a professional context, as one of the inmates.

Yeah. Most of us have known otherwise for at least 20 years. But the East Coast steez jockers stayed riding for him, and now that they feel stupid for it it’s an “everybody” problem...

He inherited and promptly resigned EJ Manuel.

We only had six fifteen-yard penalties two years ago? Mr. Davis would have given him a raise for pulling more than his fair share of the weight.

As a fan, I gotta disagree. King was a goofball but I never felt like he was a 15-yarder waiting to happen. I don’t like this move.

I know it’s an international slur, so it wouldn’t surprise me if it gets flipped the same internationally.

No kidding? Because I’m in the US and almost all the new rap music I buy is international, particularly Euro, and I had no idea there was a whole other ignorant scene going down like that. But I’m mostly in it off the producers. The international beat scene is killing the US right now on the jazzy shit that everybody…

Digital Underground don’t get anywhere near the respect they deserve. Because of where they’re from, and they were funny. They’re legit as fuck and get thrown in the “one hit wonder” category. Meanwhile actual one hit wonder Craig Mack dies and The Root acts like he should be on the rap Mt. Rushmore...

Late Mr. Davis-esque entire generations of suck for everybody! Maybe Jerry will get so far gone we can trade him Larry Brown.

This really is the best kind of everyman story in pro sports, huh? I would kinda think you’d see more beautiful randos on NFL special teams than dressed goalies, but nope. Fuck yeah.

That’s a really good call, Devin The Dude is in that conversation.

Jakarta Records was talking about it a few months back, I saw it on Facebook.

There’s something really off about the relationship between rap and humor too. People eat up the ironic shit, but legit rap that’s legit funny? Uhhh... we had what, Boots and J-Zone that could pull it off. Maybe Mr. Complex. Boots is making movies, and J-Zone basically cratered and came back raging about it.

First time I’ve heard the name.

One of the worst, probably the worst, thing about rap running over everything in its wake is that there are now legions of racist trash who consider themselves serious fans. You don’t have to be black to make or appreciate rap, but it is unequivocally black music. I’ve read that it’s a big issue in the Euro rap scene…

Or on one level, a decided lack of dickishness- those look like children’s shoes.

You may laugh about that space heater one, but in my days working at a hardware store I would literally have to get into arguments with people about how not to burn their house down along those lines.

Sweet. I was pretty stoked to go cash in my first REI dividend in an hour here. Thanks for pissing all over that, HamNo.

Over 99% of these not-cops in schools will spend 100% of their time not shooting at people. Who would you rather have spending their time in schools not shooting at people- not-cops, or any other kind of professional?

Having legions of wannabe cops too incompetent to actually be on the force all over our schools? There is definitely a case to be made that this is the stupidest take of them all.
