The award for Best Producer is money.

What are the odds the front office is in on this “controversy” and it’s a plot to up Foles’ trade value? 

Hot Taek of the Day: the problem with Wentz is the problem with Eagles quarterbacks since forever: skilled quarterbacks that do not have the emotional presence to bind a team together. Wentz is good, but he’ll never be great, and unless he undergoes some kind of life-altering experience, he’ll never be able to wring…

It doesn’t even need a replay. Since it’s obviously too difficult for seven on-field officials to actually follow where the ball going, just have a couple of booth officials that watch the game, real time, from different camera angles, and let them radio in to the referee to say, “That was blatant pass interference.”…

Shit like this makes me wonder if NFL game fixing truthers aren’t on to something. Seems like it’s pretty clear the Rams knew - Robey-Coleman’s admission means he figured he had a good chance of not getting called.

Come on, what’s a more just outcome? A team going to the Super Bowl because they scored more points according to the rules of the game, or pro football in Los Angeles getting a boost by having a team in the Super Bowl? 

The answer they want to you to hear is that kicks and knee strikes are much more likely to cause serious, career ending injury on an opponent that’s at or below hip level. The real answer, though, is that they’re more likely to rupture blood vessels near the skin, and it’s seeing people turned into a bloody mess, not…

A Rams win is only better than a Patriots win - teams that pull their kind of bullshit to move deserve ignominy, forever.

I think that one got fucked up by Butler being out of position. Simmons was running for the corner where Butler was and then just kind of stops like he didn’t know what to do. That’s when Butler comes out and just takes the ball off him. I don’t know if that’s because Butler or Simmons got the play wrong, or Thunder…

I’m a software developer. I commit changes all the time, and very few of them are immoral.

Donnie Darko is a Cocteau film by people don’t understand Cocteau but just know it’s “art”.

If you work at a place that won’t let you watch twerk videos, you need to find a new job anyway.

I get why they’re reluctant to do that - they worry people will start kidnapping themselves or their kids and then escaping themselves to collect. I don’t think it would happen, but that’s probably what they think.

3) Perfect game + no-hitter in the same season. That’s a singular achievement that would probably warrant inclusion in Hall on its own.

This is one of the reasons why internet advertising is unlike print or even TV advertising. The ad platforms you contract with demand an unprecedented level of control over your content and your users’ computers, all of which occurs effectively without your specific knowledge of what’s being served. You can’t even…

I friends connected to USOC and Olympics. They are mad as hell. Wrong has been done in their names but they had no way to stop it (or even know it was going on). Apparently there’s talk of a boycott/walkout, or petitioning the IOC to compete as Independent Olympic Athletes as a protest.

They are very much at risk. There are too many possible passwords for hackers to search “brute force”, so they use common patterns - among most common of which is word + 3-4 digits. If you figure there are many 20000 non-obscure English words you can think of, plus maybe 10000 digit values, that’s only 20,000…

This is one of the problems of dealing with institutional corruption of one kind or another (we also see it in the Larry Nassar/Penn State/etc scandals). Wide ranging punishments have wide ranging consequences, and often affect the innocent - or even the least powerful of the guilty - much more than they affect the…

It doesn’t benefit Machado for everyone to know how depressed his market is.

It’s great as a sendup of boring, pretentious art films by swerving a complicated drama faith, family, and disappointment into a ridiculous scifi plot, of a piece with Sense and Sensibility and Seamonsters. Unfortunately, that’s also its greatest weakness, because the concept, and not the execution, is the funniest…
