Right, it’s weirdly a thing that almost everyone things exists everywhere, but largely doesn’t. The flip side is people thinking you can’t marry your first cousin. In about half of states, you sure can, and the other half will recognize the marriage. I know a guy who lives in Ohio who went to North Carolina to marry…

You don’t know that he isn’t blocking a guy with his entire uniform on backwards suffering simultaneous devastating knee injuries.

Never should have moved out of Columbus, Herbie:

Love or hate Simmons, he seemed to truly care about the people at Grantland, to the point where that condition of employment at HBO seems unlikely, and shocking if true. Maybe he hated ESPN at large even more, but I hope it didn’t go down quite that way. You’d think now that it’s out, he would address it if it weren’t…

It'll be interesting to see where Curtis and Phillips go. Most talented writers on the site, in my opinion.

MSNBC, like Fox News, is unwatchable if you have a shred of intellectual honesty or critical thinking ability. But most people prefer self-justification and tribalism to those things, hence every problem in the world.

What is happening (among so many other things) is an effective delegation of the role of meting out punishment from the courts to the police. Before little if any evidence is taken, and using agents of raw, unchecked aggression. A society cannot hold true to the ideal of “innocent until proven guilty” while…

I know a hit/error is an either-or play, but Jesus, that’s a difficult stop for Hosmer to make. I don’t think he had to “atone” for anything.

Hey look, it’s every excuse for racism ever.

Reasons Alex Burmistrov Cannot Be the Next President of the United States, Ranked:

I’d be going the EEOC route with this, too. Of course, I don’t know all of the facts (or those that can be plausibly alleged), but there’s more than a whiff of a potential disability discrimination claim here.

Guy who doesn’t have the fortitude to handle being corrected online and has to respond to every single word sent his way no matter what as though his entire self-esteem derived from saving anonymous face from perceived slights from other anonymous faces? Yes, that guy sucks more than guy who corrects incorrect guy.

You have an unbelievably off-putting personality, in case you were wondering.

Gus was seen banging on the door of a tiny pink house, screaming, “Everyone knows Barbie hasn’t lit up that flat, dickless, horrifying crotch expanse for decades now. Just come out of the closet already! I love you!”

Meanwhile, postgame:

Your post is about as close to the lowest common denominator of logic and reasoning that a person can even achieve while still (for the most part) using recognizable English words and adhering (again, ftmp) to the generally accepted rules of English grammar. I’d normally be nicer, but like so many stupid people,…

Michigan was ahead by two at the time. I don’t recommend taking a safety under those conditions.

I like your analysis.

I’m late to the party, but I’d add Super 8 as another Abrams nostalgia failure. The goal was apparently to kiss all kinds of old school movie ass, but it came off cold and generic.

Yeah, DRGG didn’t start off with the best tone, but then you read the evolution of the thread, and he’s dialing it back and giving people all sorts of advice about how to save money. Sure, the advice won’t work for everyone, but how the fuck isn’t the sum total of his posts here infinitely more useful to actual poor…
