Fuck that shit.

Yes, it is truly embarrassing.

Anyway... it's gross. He needs to resign. How much hubris does this guy have that he didn't immediately resign and try to disappear off the face of the earth when these allegations and evidence came to light? he called it a "witch hunt" three times in his prebuttal statement before the ho...

Weird question...but is it odd to only have three clients? Or is that normal when you have high profile guys? Or are these three the ones who were "material" to the current investigation, so no one else in his client base was affected? maybe he is so busy fixing things for Trump it is a f...

I love foriegn films, which is why i still have Netflix disc service. I have seen many wonderful foriegn films that have never been streamed

He's Dwight Howard. That’s a pretty bad comp. The main issues with Howard are that he’s rubbed a lot of teammates the wrong way and that his effort has been inconsistent in the latter part of his career. I don’t think you anyone could say either of those things about Embiid. By all accounts, his te...

iF you are a Sixers fan like me, it never gets tiresome
He is an absolute joy

There’s at least one silver lining from last night, and it’s that for the first time in a few years I can say “man, fuck Dwyane Wade with a crowbar. Fuck him and his first name.” Hopefully Wade’s game last night ends up just being a historical footnote by the end of the series like the 2011 Brandon...

Turns out being a 76ers fan is fun. The Belinelli and Ilyasova signings were really great mid-season pickups (made possible by the Hawks' own Process-inspired teardown). Simmons is like LeBron in that his driving and passing is so good that if you surround him with enough shooters the offense can b...

On top of everything else, don;t people expect more from their President than to have him watch TV and spew invective onto Twitter for hours.

(Rhetorical, I know.)

But her emails

After this tweet, the internet was like "there's a word for this?" Probably going to be word of the year, honestly. https://twitter.com/JohnBrennan/status/984803286006951936?s=19 Just learned that too. (It means "rule by the worst," btw.) Not to be confused with khakistocracy , ...

Coach of the Year 1. D'Antoni 2. Stevens 3. Casey I doubt MDA will win this again, but the Rockets were such a machine this year that he's my pick. Stevens has also had a sneaky great year. I don't think many analytics-based predictions had the Celtics down for 55 wins even with a healthy Hayward a...

Yeah, I have no context in terms of what folks have done in the past in her position, but on the face of it I don't think she's out of bounds here. In Supreme Court nomination hearings, they always ask their opinions on specific cases. I can't say for sure they do this for all federal court nominee...

- Michael Shannon should just play the villain in every movie. Dude is seriously intense. Did you see Take Shelter ? Fantastic movie - Michael Shannon is incredible in it. I've really want to see this one. Midnight Special was awesome and he was incredible in that one as well. Take Shelter was a gr...

I agree with LJam. A left leaning person could break down any right leaning platform or commentator on a platform Fire Joe Morgan style and the right would cry foul. Yet, they will continue to divide and say incendiary shit under the guise of "telling it like it is." For fuck's sake, Alex...

Just watched The Shape of Water. I think it is one of the most beautiful movies I have ever seen. The photography, use of color and the music score were all outstanding, as well as the cast.

Saw Pod Save America live tonight. The wife listens to it every week. Good show. You got me excited for a new episode. Not up yet :( Anytime they ask for feedback or I feel the need to give it, I say "please come to Albuquerque after I get back from deployment." Edit Just posted. I like t...

For the record, I gave them shit for The Process too. It was deplorable, and I am repulsed that they did it. I’m not convinced that this was the best route to get to where they are. But if we can be happy for Astros fans, then maybe I’ll soften my stance. It was absolutely the best way to get where...

So I guess MSU didn't learn from the PSU scandal, or from the way it was addressed by PSU?

I'm not a gun owner, and have no desire to own one. I'm not a hunter either I live in a suburban development, not a lot of crime, pretty safe.

With no longer being bound to the will of my wife, I've decided that I'm no longer partaking in any Easter activities. Why, you ask?

I'm reading a book called A Gentleman in Moscow by Amor Towles. It is a beautifully written book about a Russian aristocrat sentenced to house arrest in a Moscow hotel in 1922.

That's the military for you. I had orders in hand to Kadena Air Base, Japan and then the next day I got reassigned to Whiteman AFB, Missouri.
