god this is so right. i went to PSU, which is like 1/2 pittsburgh fans, and this was their response to everything. it didn’t matter if it was even a football argument, if it was a Pitt v Philly argument, this was their retort to everything.

Oh, I see.  Brady does literally nothing and gets excoriated and a 4 game suspension.  The RAPIST does the same thing and your response is “nothing to see here”.  At lease try to hide your bias. 

The ball itself is going to play a huge role here, so comparison across live ball and dead ball eras are going to be less meaningful

the problem with exit velocity is the same problem with corsi. they are effects not causes. “if you have the puck more you will win” and who tends to have the puck more? Good teams. so good teams will have the puck more and win. no shit. same with hitters. The better the exit velocity, the higher rate of success.  Who…

Look, unlike most people here, I try my best to look at any crime story objectively and without consideration for the races involved. From when I first read about this on my commute home in the Post, I have felt the Uber part of the story seemed very convenient. It only shows on the app the make, model, license plate…

Two thoughts:

The coach got out, followed Szabo to the sidewalk, clocked him and sped off, police said.

If you had any working experience, or any involving design or decision, you would know that the one / group picking the selected design is never the designer (and none of them really knows what is a good design). The job of the designer is to provide proposals that are all workable. Whatever the choice is in the end…

by Damon’s logic it’s impossible for anybody with less power than Sarah Jeong to be racist against Sarah Jeong

LOVING the body shaming throughout this comment section

Hitler was probably right about a lot of things. Just not his racial policies or genocide. He was an animal lover, I can appreciate that. Even though he was the embodiment of evil. 

Damon, I can tell your upset. Justifiably so but you’re making a mistake and fighting an unwinnable fight. Using the dictionary in an argument with WP is like challenging Mike Tyson circa ‘86 to a boxing match.

You think that’s bad?

Ok. So Border Patrol is good now because it’s run by a woman?

1: a belief that race is the primary determinant of human traits and capacities and that racial differences produce an inherent superiority of a particular race

Dictionaries are not objective truth. And besides, numbered definitions in dictionaries refer to alternative definitions. Thus, definition #1 is a complete definition, and does not require a reference to power.

Please stop with the “Latinx” bullshit

According to the Washington Post, a woman referred to in court filings as “Carmen” is a plaintiff in an ACLU lawsuit filed against Attorney General Jeff Sessions for a recent, wantonly cruel, policy change which excludes being domestic and gang violence as a legitimate claim for asylum.

This article confuses me.

So....we like Border Patrol, now? Do we want more women in leadership roles?  But only overseeing orgs we like? But we don’t like Border Patrol, right?  But we like her because....diversity?  I’m confused.
