The article’s point was that the hyped “we’re running out of helium - stop using balloons” is way overstated.

“Current usage” and “known” reserves. By that standard, based on predictions from just a few decades ago, we would already have run out of oil.

And Deadspin is covering this story (as opposed to the millions of other spousal abuse stories) why, exactly? Oh yeah, because it involves a major college sports team.

Everything is a “finite” resource.  But the whole “we’re running out of helium” thing is mostly bs.  https://www.wired.com/2016/06/dire-helium-shortage-vastly-inflated/

“Where’s the next battle?” And people mock the slippery slope warnings. Even though the environmental harm is unquantified and likely minimal people will keep trying to get their dopamine fix banning stuff.

And how does it remain “free from Nazis”?

Someone call PETA!

OH!  It’s racist and misogynistic.  I guess I should give it another chance.  

Someone tell Trump.  It looks like a perfect replacement for the current (boring) AF1.

This exactly.  I want all sorts of things that I’m not actually willing to pay for.

You can if you’re the one buying it.

Or shoes.  Let’s not discount the possibility of shoes.

ESPN has gone out of its way the last few years to focus on political controversies - often to the detriment of its supposed focus on sports.

Can you really stand “on” a hole?  Hmm, this art makes you THINK!

Any backs that had multiple 100+ yard games behind the woefully bad Arizona line, while playing with zero passing game?

Picking up the 46th best running back isn’t that bad when he looks to be a backup.  And if he flashing even a bit of his old self he’ll be better than any (non IR’d) back the Skins have - other that Chris Thompson, but he’s really only a 3rd down back.

“Both of his backups”. Actually the (probably still) starter after Guice is Rob Kelley, who is not hurt. Unless AP starts whining about play time and creates a distraction I don’t see this as being a bad move. Even if he doesn’t have much gas left, he’s still probably a better 2 down backup than any other player out…

Perhaps his assholeness is the result of an abusive Uncle.  :)

You’re the one who brought up the limited resources.  And again, it seems like the 3 classes we are talking about are/should be high priority - even though they have family relationships in the country (because a large percentage of illegal aliens have such a relationship).  These are all people whose illegalities…

If anything THIS program is an incredibly efficient use of resources. They know exactly where these folks will be, so the arrests and deportations are easy.
