(1) I am, nominally, a Patriots fan.

“It was mostly republished by right-of-center publications like the New York Post and Fox News, with little interest from the liberal media”

Here’s the ridiculous thing: they had the cellphones of the two guys they (the league) were accusing of tampering the balls pursuant to this “scheme”.

We’re emphatically not trying to help him. We despise him. But I tried to make this article about Cecil and about trophy hunting, more than about this specific idiot, whose name is already everywhere on the internet.

Come on, man. We’re not protecting him. There’s no meaningful way in which this guy is protected by our leaving his name out of the text of this article—particularly since his name is printed in the Telegraph article we linked to at the top and bottom of the post. We left it out because we didn’t want it in the…

I’m a hunter, and I know I always feel the proudest when I use bait to lure an animal that I have no intention of eating and that has become acclimated to being in the presence of people (which removes any sport in it) nominally outside a protected area for the sole purpose of counteracting the shame of my shockingly…

90%? I’d peg it closer to 99%. The only people that wanted the Olympics here were the people that were going to profit off of it somehow.

“it’s totally fiscally responsible, now sign this paper that says you’ll pick up the tab on all the cost over-runs, which is essentially a blank check made out to the IOC....”

Sorry we weren’t interested in being scammed, USOC. Maybe you’ll have better luck stealing money and land from Los Angeles?

These massive block quotes of what he said are completely out of context.

If your family doesn’t have a cottage, it’s likely that you’ll know someone who does. For a lot of kids, visiting friends at their cottages represents, for…

“We’re going to celebrate his life, not the death and other issues.”

I liked this movie better when it was an episode of Futurama.

That story is making my blood pressure rise, fucking entitled parents are the worrrrrrst.

That’s really the key here: are the parents making an effort?

I live in Maine and have actually been to this diner. I think the important thing to know about Marcy’s is that it really is a hole-in-the-wall. There are maybe 5 tables and one counter that might seat a dozen. It is tiny and cramped and hot (because the griddle is 3 feet from the counter), but the food is delicious…

Ty Lawson is an incredibly talented basketball player that a lot of casual NBA fans are unaware of because he played for the goddamn Nuggets.

I hope he can get right so he doesn’t throw all of the talent away. No snark here. Just sadness.

I would to see you say those words to my face. I live in LA. Let me know if you have the balls to meet up and disgrace my country like that.
