Great point. I remember those articles well. It brought attention to a very real problem, in a way that reached millions of people.

Come now, don’t be ridiculous. Its not as if the NFL decided to host the super bowl in Minnesota just to spite these women. The super bowl has been scheduled for this week years in advance. These organizations knew that they were scheduling their press conference when the media’s attention would be focused elsewhere.…

Thats true to a degree. However, I would argue that it is certainly something that people are concerned about. And again, it isn’t at the top of the list THIS WEEK. Because Minnesota is hosting the biggest sporting even of the year, something they only get the opportunity to do once every twenty or so years. This…

I didn’t know that! I just learned something new! I know the new stadium is a major point of pride for Minnesota. And I don’t want to sound like I don’t care about violence against women. Of course it should be focused on. I just don’t understand why it couldn’t have been rescheduled so that it could get the full…

Thats Burneko. He can eat a bag of crow dick, and Ill never let him forget it

I mean, to be fair, this is the first time Minnesotta has ever hosted a super bowl (I think). These women knew that, and chose to hold their press conference any way. They could have held it two weeks ago, and the press would have been there. They could have held it in a week and a half, and the press would have been…

Effete hipsters who are averse to contact sports, because they were too scared to play them when they were younger? To be fair that is only about 1/3 of the site.

Imagine how frustrating it would be to be blackmailed and falsely accused. Were I him, I would not be nearly as composed.

Agreed 100%. Anyone who falsely and maliciously accuses another person of a crime should be punished with the same exact sentence that the accused would face. It is truly despicable to falsely accuse somebody of a crime. Women like this discredit many legitimate accusers. If he was facing years in jail, she should…

Comparing Simmons to MCW is pure unadulterated ignorance. They are completely different players. Simmons is an explosive athlete who can blow past defenders in 1 on 1 situations. He also has vision and playmaking skills light years ahead of MCW. C’mon man, do better.

To be fair, his FT percentage has improved some from his absolutely abysmal start to the year.

Fair enough point. He had an entire season last year to fix his jumper while he was hurt. And he didn’t. It is wishful thinking to believe he’ll develop that jumper, because if he does, my God, the league is screwed.

Patrick, I am a huge Sixers fan (check the username for proof). I love seeing all of the Deadspin stories about the 6ers this year. It just demonstrates how much fun this team has been to watch this year (between Embiid, Simmons, and Sarich - and hopefully soon, Fultz).

Prachi , when is enough going to be enough? How much shit are we, the American people, going to have to put up with from this absolute embarrassing nightmare of a president? I know Pence’s policies are scary, but I want Trump out so badly. He has horrendous policies, AND he is a thorough embarrassment, who is likely…

Those are just the chances you take when you decide to employ the living meme

This is an underrated comment. Look at how Case Keenum has done since escaping Fisher’s clutches.

I mean I definitely agree that a certain subset of white people gave her family far too much shit. But who knows if she is even kissing a conservative. And even if she is, who cares! It is her life and her decisions! Just because you or I would avoid rethugs like the plague doesn’t mean she has to. And the clap back…

And the world would be a much worse place. As I said above, it is 2017. There is no excuse for anybody to be ridiculing interracial relationships. The blending of cultures and race/ethnicity not being a barrier to meaningful happy relationships is part of what makes America a great place to live.

I think you misread or misunderstood my statement? Like, check my other comments. I gladly acknowledge how absolute shit alot of white people are regarding interracial relationships. But I am definitely not gonna let any group pass for being judgmental assholes.

I know it is super cliched to say this at this point. But it is 2017. Why are we still having these problems as a nation? We should be well past this. (And let me tell you, black twitter is NOT as bad as white folks when it comes to looking at interracial dating). I just wish we could all let each other live and be…
