The league mandates that you have a net behind home plate, but not from home plate to the foul poles. If they’re violating a mandate, then there are 29 other stadiums that are violating code as well.

Okay but 70's were very awful in different ways...

It’s interesting to me how thin the line is with athletes. I’m not gonna defend Dwight—he lost me with the Van Gundy thing—but if we look at for example KD, he gets shit on for being too phony and worried about his brand, and then also gets shit on when he behaves like an actual human being (albeit by being an idiot).…

Earth’s gravity isn’t too strong to fly. We’re just not the right species for it.

Pluto is the bacon of planets.

The fanboyism over a garbage rock they thought about once in 8th grade and never again will always be fascinating to me.

Did you not read the first sentence of the article? That is how this started...

Kick It Out called it “offensive and discriminatory” and said “racist stereotypes are never acceptable, irrespective of any intention to show support for a player,” per the BBC.

If true, this would be the most Nintendo thing Nintendo has done in about 15 years.

This is true, but personally the greater issue is that this is something that’s been following him for some time, largely thanks to Gawker. There’s never been a single allegation plead with specificity, and the alleged victim(s?) have all actively denied that it was him in the rumors. As someone on another post…

Not true, at least for me. I’d be uncomfortable condemning anyone if the only evidence of wrongdoing was second and third-hand rumors, and if the supposed sources of those accusations started directly refuting them.

The thought that progressives somehow wouldn’t be prone to the same “tribalism trumps truth” sort of behavior was always a silly one to me.

This is getting boring and a little gross. It’s reminding me of the call for unedited photos of Lena Dunham – skeevy and not what I’d expect from this site.

Do we think the teacher is just really stupid and thought it might be an interesting thought exercise to show how people justify objectively terrible behavior, or do we think this person was trying to actually indoctrinate students in racist hatred?

Imagine the Brooklyn Brawler gimmick today... all hipster cliches

I, too, like reading the short articles before commenting.

If only there were some way for these folks to verify whose Uber it was.

*Uber driver pulls up, rolls down window*“I’m looking for BIG MIKE whose destination is [trashy part of the city]”

I’m disappointed. I didn’t hear one person yell “It’s not worth it!” I didn’t even hear the usual “WORLDSTAR!!!” 1 star, would not watch again.

yes, especially stuff that’s inherently shaming, like “naughty bits”.
