“redistribute the headcount to the other sites”

Art Briles disagrees with your premise.

I think it’s a little early to count the Dodgers out. That team is willing to spend money like no other, plus they still have some amazing prospects coming up to the big leagues. Does that guarantee them a World Series? Of course not, but I think the Dodgers are more likely to stay relevant for at least another 5…

Your old job as in at Deadspin? Or your old old job?

I think the first choice was not accepting Jerrah’s invitation. I understand they’ve been buddies for a while, but Ellen had to know she’d get on TV yukking it up with W. What DID she think the reaction was going to be?

You are full of shit. Stop pretending that rational criticism of Israel is anti-Semetic. I am a proud Jew and I support the idea of the State of Israel but the current form is rotten to the core. Claiming otherwise is disengenious. 

Yeah...no. Evangelicals absolutely believe that. Not all. But a lot. My (Jewish) friend:s father worked with Evangelicals raising money for “the territories” and multiply admitted to him over the years that this was their end goal.

It’s fucking Turkey! Who gives a shit! What person in a position of power would actually give into Turkey —

I think this would be an appropriate usage of the term “deep state” to refer to the shadow government that keeps the endless wars going to profit the super rich, regardless of who the president is.

I think he defended Steve Kerr also, but I agree re: Harden. 

Remember when Adam Silver said he was proud of players who talk politics? Guess he should have clarified that he was talking about only American politics, not global politics...

Once you get the job, you’re part of the carousel. You’ll always have at least a coordinator position and multiple shots at other HC jobs.

I didn’t know his background, thank you for adding that. Certainly does change things.

Sure but that was the olden days. There’s little in the past that I am nostalgic for, because what has replaced it is better. Except the Concorde, which ruled.

The fact that Tsai, who is Taiwanese (who take WAY more shit from mainland China than Hong Kong ever has) is basically telling US fans to let the NBA appease the Chinese government (dressing it up as the Chinese people bullshit) tells you everything you need to know about the NBA’s business model. The NBA owners only…

This is all terribly depressing but can we talk about how overly reliant these chuds are on using a pyramid in their diagrams. I know that as a real life not-very-successful business person, the first fucking thing I think of when I see a pyramid during a business presentation is, “oh these assholes are building a…

I mean the article says that

He doesn’t, he just wants to reinforce to his base his talking points. He knows most people know that he’s full of shit but he doesn’t care as long as the MAGA Morons are still buying in.
