This "all or nothing" approach would be doomed to failure. There are thousands of gun owners, particularly in rural areas, who love their hunting rifles, but could be persuaded to support a ban on automatic and semi-automatic "assault-type" weapons. That would be a first step wi...

I don't think it's particularly fair to lump all gun owners into one category, say "change your culture," and step back from it. There's definite nuance. I'm done with going halfway and trying to appease someone that just wants to own a device that's only purpose is to injure or kill. All...

Both of the kids teams are in a league for the spring. I'm doing the scheduling for one of the teams and I'm finding that teams don't want to make the trip, but they don't seem to care much about us having a long drive. The farthest away game is in NJ. Probably 3.5 hours away. It sounds like severa...

Is there an article that researched the names on the spreadsheet and shows which ones go beyond acceptable agent behavior? For example the only name I really know on that list is DJ Newbill and based on the timing it looks like he was loaned $2K to get his pro career started in Europe? I don't follo...

But even worse was the colour guy (Bode Miller?) who sounded like a complete moron. I think he also made this comment at the time. I want to point out she also got married. And it’s historically very challenging to race on the World Cup with a family or after being married. Not to blame the spouses...

I knew a few teachers that would have loved to carry a gun in schools. Most of them shouldn't even be teachers. The next logical step is for students to carry guns to protect themselves from the teachers.

I guess I should start paying attention now that PSU isn't terrible. I still don't believe they have a real chance to make the tournament.

We lived in an apartment surrounded by mostly college students when we first moved to town that had a nice .5 mile loop where everyone would jog/walk their dog. When the snow melted in spring it was easy to see that many residents had not picked up during their walks. One day we came out to find all...

I’d take down any posters, paraphernalia that references Penn State, too.. I understand the joke, but PSU is a top school(#9) for school administrators. MSU is #4. So you may want to emphasize the PSU fandom. https://www.usnews.com/best-graduate-schools/top-education-schools/education-administratio...

Pro tip when hiring somebody to do this sort of thing when you travel (whether they stay at the house or not). Old ladies are MUCH more dependable and reliable than 20-somethings or teenagers. (Much less likely to dip into your liquor, too). Always go with the old folks. We had a coworkers 18 year ...

You need to drive on the turnpike some more. It sucks. Not as much as I80, but it's close. Dangerously narrow at times and way too expensive. I think it's around $10 billion in debt with an annual budget of $500 million. Almost 10 straight years of raising tools. US 30(Lincoln highway) runs parallel...

Sounds like the line is already forming for 'loma. I think a simple.... "Wanna Netflix and Chill after I get the papers signed?" will get the point across.

I'm saying I'm not driving that far for me to play in a league. One league, games start as late as midnight, so I'd be getting home at 1:30 am on Monday nights. Getting to the Meadowlands during rush hour could be anywhere between 30 minutes and 3 hours, so that's not happening. ohhh.... that sucks...

I want to play in an adult league, but that is a hike for a late weeknight game. Only places I've found are in Somerville, Carlstadt or Bridgewater; all around 30 minutes if no traffic.

We had our annual dog birthday party on sunday. The kids decided that a few slices of bacon are appropriate for a 15th birthday. The torn acl from a few months back is pretty good. It sometimes takes her a while to get the legs moving, but now she can walk outside and around the house.

In Nassar Case, Michigan State Wanted Famed Ex-Prosecutor to Both Examine and Defend It "Shame" isn't a strong enough word for what the powers that be at M.S.U. should be feeling. This is right out of the Penn State playbook(Freeh report). What PSU had that MSU doesn't is a dead coach to ...

I don't think punishment is the solution. If it's more punishment then there is incentive to cover it up. If it's less then you never do any prevention. Many Division I sports have long ago lost any semblance of being amateur or being for the benefit of the athletes. Take away the money that schools...

If you think these issues are with specific schools and just their athletic department you really haven't been paying attention. Blowing up the AD at a few schools doesn't deter other schools from covering anything up. It may be reinforcing it. Take a look at some of Lou Ann Simon's past history wit...

Translation: Putin definitely isn't there. Oh wait I lied. Putin is there, but only because of Obama. He won't go any farther because I'm Trump. But if he does it's because of NATO and Obama. Now he will go away, but he will come back.

Fact of the matter is, in order for what happened at Penn State to occur, you needed sycophants in place to be conditioned to look the other way. I completely agree with that. Unfortunately, I think there are more programs(and fans) like that than there are those that are clean. It's not limited to...

College football does not have any decency. Win and try to get any transgressions swept under the rug. If you can do both then you will have a long career as a coach.

I completely missed this Schiano thing yesterday. I don't think UT really cares about becoming a pillar of virtue. Isn't their teabagging ex-QB still revered in the program?
