That certainly deserved to come out of the grays.

If he wants San Diego to embrace him as a Trader, he should just change his name to Joe.

He traveled.

The real question is are Key & Peele livestreaming “Game Day” this Sunday?

When I was an impressionable youth, I had a book of sports quotes. One that left its mark on my adolescent mind was, “The only time sex has bothered me is when I do it during the competition.” I just looked it up (still have the book) to make sure I’d gotten it right. The quote is attributed to Bruce Jenner.

wow, professorial sponsorship of a journal note was not a requirement when I wrote my note circa 10 years ago, nor is it a requirement now where I am (which is the same place I studied).

Even if the litigation angle doesn’t pan out, I’d think there’s plenty to write about, e.g. stacking up the arguments on either side against the historical creation and application of gaming laws at either the federal level or in your particular state, if that’s how you roll.

(i think that was the joke)

What I’m taking issue with is (primarily) the use of the word “laughable” to describe murders. They wouldn’t be laughable (emphasis is Greg’s) under any circumstances notwithstanding considerations of futility, meaninglessness, or senselessness.

I guess?

“...and also why diverse, neverending acts of religious terrorism would be laughable if not for how ultimately meaningless they really are [all the innocent dead people?].”

Vince Gill was a big deal in country music 20 years ago.

I know a lot of people in San Diego who think the lousy on-field product this year was a deliberate attempt to demonstrate to the other 31 owners that the fan base wasn’t solid—poor ticket and merchandise sales, lousy tv ratings, etc. Of course, I lived there back when they were one of the better teams in the AFC, and…

Or—it will justify disbanding the franchise but will result in taking away draft picks.

I’m not holding anyone responsible for anything. I’m just pointing out the differences, as I understand them, in the situations. I will say, though, that if SI’s fan vote included a ballot and the ballot had the horse on it, then horseracing fans weren’t unreasonable in thinking that a horse could win the award…

To be fair, it’s a different situation. With the Heisman, the fan vote at Nissan’s website was supposed to count as a single ballot out of, what, around 900 I think they said. This seems like Sports Illustrated, the same organization that bestows the award, asked their readers who should win it. The readers went one…

Overwhelmingly won the fan vote but didn’t win the trophy? That must suck.

I don’t, because I’m not smart enough to log in from my phone. Whenever I read an article on my phone and think of a comment, I always run to my computer. (And I, too, often run a search across the existing comments before I chime in because of jerks like me who will point out redundant comments)
