I don’t even know what to say except this is utterly horrific.

I had to step away for about a half hour to do some editing on the Mrs.'s year-end goals. I miss anything?

Sat in courtroom all day. Made the initial (random) cut but got cut by govt in voir dire. Did mention I was a defense attorney. But there was much worse in the pool for the govt case so I got nervy but all good. Still have to call in all week. Hey Citgo, did you do criminal defense? I've been looki...

I just got chills on the video of the fans in the tent in Zagreb.

The Lead podcast (The Athletic) today is about the psychology of penalty kicks by the way. Pretty fortuitous.

Look at Nostradamus up there!

Daaaaaaaaaaaag!

She needs to be introduced from now until time immemorial as “Kyrsten Sinema, who had the opportunity and power to protect the right to vote for Black Americans but chose not to”.

Fuck her so much.

A wolf in sheep’s clothing, if somehow the wolf was also worthless.

Long story short. If the Feds guarantee a right of protection, that becomes the floor of protected rights to the individual. It probably works best for criminal law, but it applies for civil too. If the Fed law says same-sex marriage between two people are legal and carries all rights therein (lower...

The easiest way for me to justify this is to simply say that we made the best of a bad situation. I'd rather answer to letting an arms dealer free than having to answer why I had the opportunity to bring an American home but chose not to.

People forget that even if you dress Mr. Fluffles in baby costumes or roll Ms. Meowington around in a stroller, cats are still God's perfect predator.

I remember back when I'd make year end lists and it was like 75 albums that had to be cut down to 10. I don't think I listened to 10 new 2022 albums all year. They did movies, too, and I had only heard of a couple of them. And I definitely watched less good movies this year. Directly related to try...

I understand your reaction to this, Citgo. Totally. But I look at with any action with Putin and Russia, they're going to be negotiating with realpolitik . They wanted their man back, and their best way to do that was a prisoner exchange. They realized the only Americans of value that were still in ...

I'm still not convinced the Russians didn't plant evidence on her for the very reason to free Bout. I still don't know why we are just assuming Russia is acting in good faith at any point in this.

I've never heard of that before with that guy but that's aggravated assault.

Britney's free. One for one with the arms dealer.

But isn't that already baked into the contract on the Yankees' side? I think back to Ryan Howard deal, where many fans looked at the later years of paying him $25MM as not as much as an albatross because the turnstiles would just keep turning. Well... it didn't, and the Phillies had a slide into irr...

Reffed Tyson-Holyfield II, the fight better known as the one where Holyfield victoriously left the ring with two chunks out of his ears.

ETA: totally forgot until I clicked that he also did the fight where Oliver McCall broke down and when the guy with the fan-parachute landed in the ring.

Are you expecting the Swiss to put up a fight?

It wouldn't bother McConnell because he lacks shame, and McCarthy is used to be ignored.

I'm really looking forward to going to this thread when Trump is either in an orange jumpsuit or lying on a coroner's slab. At least one of those is a certainty.

One thing you have to remember about the analytics argument is that for the most part they are basing off of past history and the relative success or failure of a decision. The 4th Down bot was simply showing what happened historically. It's not factoring in playing against Andy Dalton and a banged...

Approaching the “I’ll be watching these games from a condo in Sedona” phase of contract lengths Kind of off the subject, but did you guys visit Sedona on your vacation? What a beautiful place!

I’ve never heard a bad version of “This Christmas”. Same cannot be said for Last Christmas unfortunately. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Ea_1vStswA I think because “Last Christmas” is still rightly associated with Wham! and not yet a regular rotation, while “This Christmas” has become one. I mean...

You just can’t get beaten by Taysom Hill. Not because he’s a gamebreaker or anything, but rather you’ll never hear the end of it.

You’re right, Rass. That was in bad taste.

Anyway, I think I remember people thinking Cheers would fall off after losing Shelley Long. If anything, she added a much better foil to Sam.

Let me add one more thing: By far, the biggest adjustment the sport needs to make is changing the offsides rule. We talked about it. All they need to do to unlock the game is change it from " any body part is off " to "any body part is on." That doesn't, necessarily, fix the tie...

They also ended their undefeated season in 2003 IIRC.
