I find the backlash interesting in that often the same people who want folks to get out of their cars and tax sodas seem really hostile to this. Awareness is good. Both the cupcake graphic and not being able to turn it off is a bit too intrusive, but the critics don’t want a simple fix—they seem to want total…

No more replay. Challenge flag and touchdown review in last 2 minutes of game. Period.

Where’s my deflategate? Powerful forces conspiring to stop the Pats in a plot line that could only come from an Ayn Rand novel (parity!). Neil Degrass Tyson was even in on it (until he got exposed!).

Of course, they could follow the US Women’s National Team and not only watch the US play in a World Cup, but actually compete and perhaps win it.

Girl?

When you can’t afford pads and helmets you play with what you have. In the U.S., that’s often basketball. For the rest of the world, soccer (futbol), with running making its mark, too.

Jürgen Klinsmann. We derided him and mocked him. Now....

I’m going to pretend that they included life beginning at conception because they want to really put resources into the overall health of women, plus children as they grow—including those important first years out of the womb. It’s really about doing more for women than Hillary would have done. Much more.

You have a clear admiration for Holmes. I must admit I find the man fascinating, but haven’t had the time to delve in deeper. It’s a good quote, if his or not.

Your choice of words, etc. conveys anger. Look into that. You’re not really conversing (I’m stubborn, so here we are).

Reread your posts. The swearing. The violence. The use of punctuation. Deal with the anger issues before you pop an eyeball.

I thought women had sex these days because it is fun. No?

White Person Question: What does it take for the country to move forward?

I’m just telling you how I’ve watched it applied.

No, actually that’s how the law works in schools. If someone is offended by your kid’s “no fat chicks” t-shirt and perceives it as being sexual discrimination then they have a case.

That t-shirt is considered harassment, which falls under the “Your right to swing your arms ends just where the other man’s nose begins.” rule (Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr.). Political speech is protected, though. Harassment is generally defined by the victim, not intent. The Confederate flag shirts went from…

I get the irony of using “Born in the USA”. Too clever for this site.

There is no better sports clip show than Chris Elliott as Marv Albert on the old Late Night. Go to 2:30 mark:

Stick it to BIG WATER and BIG WATER BOTTLE in one move. Here’s how!

The entire tone of the piece seems critical in tone. That you end with your “gentle criticism” is what’s telling. I kept waiting for the other shoe to drop—a way in which his words were hypocritical to the extreme, not that he failed in a longer, consistent interview to ALSO give props to those who came before him.
