I think that your first day in the city, you should walk up Market Street from Castro station and then take Embarcadero until you get to Fort Point.

Not counting the islands, in San Francisco, you are never more than about 7 miles from any other place in the city. The best thing you can do is walk where you are going. It’s not LA. Most places in the city are not more than a mile walk from a train.

Fun fact, God Bless America was written by Irving Berlin, an agnostic, Jewish immigrant as a love-ballad to his adopted country.

He’s avoiding the issue of who is sitting and who is standing and presenting a unified front. At this point, this might simply be the best choice for teams going forward.

I think it is pretty bigoted to make sweeping generalizations about everyone who disagrees with what Kaepernick is doing. I think the protest is disrespectful to everyone who fought and died for our country. That does not imply that I believe that our country does not have serious social problems or that police…

I’m not even sure how many owners really care about Kaepernick. I think it is a purely business decision. If he were Joe Montana or Steve Young, NFL owners would happily employ him even if he posted a video of himself taking a big dump on the flag. Kaepernick is a mediocre quarterback who generates a lot of negative…

I don’t think there is a law that specifically bans the President from, “mentioning the employment status of those employed in the private sector.”

California law prohibits employers from disciplining or discriminating against their employees because of their political beliefs or activities.

I remember reading in one of Carl Sagan’s books why he declined invitations to the Reagan White House. Even though Reagan knew that their political beliefs differed, these were the days before Trumpism where Presidents saw it as their duty to represent all Americans, even those who did not vote for them, and Sagan…

Being fired is not the technical name for it, which is usually relief for cause, but it is a correct term. In the military, getting fired from a position which is distinct from being discharged from service.

I do not see any evidence that it is a violation of the first amendment. The first amendment prevents the government from passing laws or regulations to restrict your speech or favor one viewpoint over another. It does not protect you from government officials discussing your speech or the consequences that might flow…

Candlestick could get pretty hot even though it rarely got about 80 F. Sitting in the direct sunlight with no shade for four hours will do that to you.

Yeah, but they are a lot closer to Manhattan, just across the river really. The Raiders and the A’s and the Warriors are in a pretty similar situation, although none of them calls themselves a San Francisco team.

Well, most of the seats are licensed, so technically, it is sold out or pretty close to it. That does not mean people show up to the game or stay in their seats.

I took MUNI to almost every game. So did thousands of other people. Those busses and trains were numerous and crowded.

Season tickets to Candlestick had been in my family since before they won their first Superbowl. I went to nearly every game starting with the year before they drafted Alex Smith. Their first game under Harbaugh, there were more Dallas fans in the stands than 49ers. The ‘Stick stunk and was a human traffic jam.

I think that it is more that a Teriyaki bistro is a Seattle thing. There are plenty of Japanese places in San Francisco and Los Angeles, for instance, but not many places that specialize in Teriyaki or Japanese Barbecue.

Before DACA, there was no way for Jose to, “get his immigration status sorted out.” That is like telling a gay couple that they should have gotten a marriage license before same-sex marriage was legalized.

Jose did not break the law. His parents did.

Jose did not break any law. His parents did.
