  1. Every team should employ a Vice President of Common Sense to counterbalance the "football guys" who are obsessed with raw talent. The question, "...but can he play football?" doesn't seem to get asked enough.
  2. It's the hard knock life. Fighting can lead to unexpected bowel movements on the lentil diet.
  3. Where are all these Old West saloons? I hit the bars a few times every month and I can't remember seeing anything beyond a couple skinny dudes pushing and shoving. And that was only once.
  4. Well it's a fine line for sure, but I'll enjoy her walking it deftly for the moment.
  5. "True rock" is the perpetual belief that musical innovation is ruinous. I bet the Beatles were considered not "true _____" at their outset. There was a ton of resistance to the electric guitar once upon a time, right?
  6. I respect the hell out of her decision. She's obviously a mega-millionaire at this point due to "21", but instead of growing her "brand" or whatever and becoming a plutocrat she's going to use her considerable means to focus on family. Having talent isn't a mandate to use it.
  7. That was the nature of the lead story on NBC Nightly News last night.
  8. Ah. Well I'm not a connoisseur of that variety, so the differences between electronica, house music, dubstep, etc. are lost on me.
  9. Say what you want about the new dubstep trend, but when deadmau5 came on and "infected" the Foo Fighters during Rope, that was pretty good theater.
  10. As a devotee of Cornell basketball, I've seen Lin play a few times in person. He's for real. Quick, decisive, very athletic, great distributor, basketball IQ is through the roof. I suspect that he would've been heavily scouted by major programs if the term "Asian American point guard" didn't cause such cognitive dissonance. The program that REALLY dropped the ball? The Golden State Warriors. With the Bay Area's significant Asian population, Lin could've been the most marketable local athlete in the country. But they chose to release him.
  11. RIP Live the life of a junkie, and it doesn't matter if your talent is singing or plumbing or birdwatching...you become a junkie first and foremost. What a waste.
  12. I heard she's dating that George Glass fella though, so she's got that going for her.
  13. Humorous story, but the guy is a douche. He chooses to publicly shame his daughter to her entire social circle instead of handling the matter internally, but he still manages to wax sanctimonious about the good old days and traditional values. His daughter sounds like a spoiled brat, but whose fault is that if not him?
  14. http://espn.go.com/boston/mlb/story/_/id/7562495/source-boston-red-sox-kevin-youkilis-gets-engaged-new-england-patriots-tom-brady-sister
  15. This picture makes me interested in employment in the body painting industry.
  16. A romantic poem is always a nice touch. Roses are red Violets are purple I wanna !@#$ you with a rake
  17. Rumor is that Fitz will wear a beard of wedding rings for the upcoming season.
  18. If you unfriend any of them, I will shiv you. Mofo.
  19. Certainly, gays should probably be considerably more motivated to fight. I'd be chomping at the bit to tackle those who consider me an abomination. And that includes bigoted fundamentals in America. I suppose I'd have a thicker skin, though. The guy you quote has it wrong, though. "They are not earning their keep because our enemy hates them the most." No. Absolutely not. I refuse to foist disproportionate expectations upon any group because they just so happen to be the target. Let's say there's a mass murderer who fires randomly into crowds with the aim of killing as many blonde women as possible. He just despises them. Your daughter is a blonde woman. Is it her responsibility to join the police force because, hey, she got us into this mess?
  20. Don't ever, ever, ever, EVER read the comments on youtube. I don't know what it is about that particular community, but the youtube comments section might just be the douchiest place on earth.
  21. Exactly. It's a chilling image for sure, but I doubt the on-duty sniper even so much as touched the rifle. Nothing wrong with security.
  22. I'm actually the Vice President of the Bangor Septic Guild. Not to brag, but the ladies are in no short supply.
