Your “People Are Stupid” Wednesday Evening Open Thread

NFL News:

  • Different day, different angry owner: John Mara said the Giants will address Odell Beckham’s dog-peeing TD celebration.
    • Reminder: his niece is my future ex-wife, Kate Mara.

  • The CFL has ruled that Johnny Manziel cannot play in 2017.
    • Manziel said: “I recently had a really positive meeting with Commissioner Ambrosie and welcomed the chance for us to get to know each other and have an in-depth talk about a possible future with the CFL.
    • The League has not published a rationale behind their decision, but the apparent rationale is that there’s only 5 weeks – and four games – left in the season.
      • They have also extended Hamilton’s rights ownership to the end of the season, should they want to sign him for 2018.
    • But Kaep’s still available!
  • Peyton Manning is allegedly preparing for a Senate run in Tennessee.
    • No official word, or knowledge of his party affiliation.
      • The “Omaha!” says Republican, but the pre-existing macrocephaly says Democrat.
  • Latest rumours are that Justin Timberlake is your Super Bowl LII halftime performer.
    • It will mark 13 years since his last appearance. ‘Member?

  • A wistful read comes from The Ringer, which has “an appreciation” on Darren Sproles.
    • Fun fact: he was in the same draft class as Frank Gore (2003).

Finally, your daily anthem-pocalypse update:

  • DirecTV is offering Sunday Ticket refunds to people wanting to cancel in protest of the protests.
  • The Ravens’ anthem singer, Joey Odoms, resigned due to “fans who attack players for protesting, (a right in which I fought to defend) but are simply not interested in understanding why, is the reason I am resigning.”
  • Peter King’s Word Buffet has a collection of letters fans wrote to teams, with his site cc’d. He includes at the head the one written to Dan Rooney which prompted his response yesterday.
  • The fire chief who N-bombed Mike Tomlin has resigned from his position.

Senor Weaselo

Before or after it closes?

That’s good ironing, but, I think he should be exiled to Staten Island.

LemonJello

Originally, I was going with Catalina Island, is there a shitty island that’s part of New Jersey?

Unsurprised

Its half of Ellis Island.

Unsurprised

Staten Island is his base. He could use it to return and take over again like Napoleon’s first exile.

Wakezilla

Nah. He won’t be impeached, and if he does, it won’t be the kind where he steps down as president. It sets a dangerous precedent going forward that nobody will want.

With that said, holy fuck, I feel for Don t and all the Puerto Ricans. Nothing like being blackmailed into privatization in order to get food and electricity. I kind of hope the Cubans step in and provide aid as a big fuck you to the Americans for letting Puerto Rica suffer.

Redshirt

Why an island. Just put him on a inner tube, put him out to see and wish him the best of luck.

LemonJello

Ooooh! One of those “trash islands” made of all the plastic and styrofoam in the middle of the ocean!

Redshirt

I can just imagine some low level Secret Service agent assigned to investigate threats to the President online reading this and wondering if he should include it in his report.

‘They want to what?”
“Banish him on an island. Either Puerto Rico or some kind of garbage scow?”
“You’re making this up!”
“No, sir. One even thought of putting him of a pool float.”
“Huh. That’s a new one.”

Turns out the poem is actually the opposite, in its originalform
“No man is an iland, intire of it selfe; ”
But for some reason I wanted to quote it as
“Every man is an island, unto himself.”

The Deadspin article about the NCAA sting seems depressingly accurate. They got their headlines, but the scam will continue and corruption reigns because this is Hellworld.

Anyway, I don’t give a fuck about anything Trump says or what anyone thinks about anything he says. If he kills us all, then we’re dead anyway, so what difference does it make? If he isn’t, I’d rather spend my short time remaining on this stupid planet doing literally anything else.

blaxabbath

I am loving this NCAA basketball investigation. I went to bed last night thinking, “Well, the FBI got a nice little sting. Pitino’s guys waere probably so brazen it just fell in their lap. And then they wrapped up a few other coaches for measure but the NCAA won’t punish those schools because, frankly, the NCAA barely punishes institutional cover up of rape.”

Today I’m like, “This is going to Agent Smith out and bring down the entire NCAA and now’s probably a good time to divest of any Adidas/Nike/UnderArmor stock.”

Wakezilla

Sadly, I think they have their patsies to fall on the sword and nobody of relevance will see time in jail or team get the death penalty

nomonkeyfun

They might find patsies for an NCAA investigation, but no way is anyone gonna do 20+ years of fed time for Ratface.

blaxabbath

I have a suspicion that the NCAA is the FBI’s goal target. If dominoes begin to fall, “everyone does it” will become the rally cry of the guilty and then someone will cough up documentation of the NCAA looking the other way on A LOT of things. As great as athletic money is, federal loan dollars are on the line if schools (as academic institutions) are exposed as being in on this behavior.

You thing tuition is bad now? Wait until the only college that can receive federal dollars is The Maestro’s music school. (I’m kidding here but the risk is valid and real and all univ Presidents should be looking at their programs HARD).

King Hippo

No the U*NC example is….don’t look AT ALL

King Hippo

Again, I am all like what about U*NC’s brazen academic fraud you fuckers??

/also, they pay ppl just like everybody else does. Supposedly Harrison Barnes was prohibitively expensive.

Not yet. But I am interested. I’m probably going to wait until I see reviews.

However, the MLP:FiM writers are great and the voice actresses are awesome. Plus the music at times rivals Disney at their peak. My fear is that its going to be too bloated for its own good, trying to fit in too much jokes and celebs that the story is harmed.

It has the potential to be good though.

(Incoming Rant)

The Republican Party is officially a lost cause. The Far Right Assholes are in control and have convinced the voters that somehow neo-fascism is the way to go. I’m not sure what type of voodoo shit they pulled, but they did it and the Republicans of Reagan are lost.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-_qqkzXOGMs

Plus I can’t vote Democrat, because I am pro-life (with exceptions), pro-death penalty and anti-gun control (a person shouldn’t have a machine gun, but a semi-auto in their house to protect themselves is fine by me). Also, I believe that if you give everyone all the entitlements they feel they deserve, you’ll go bankrupt. Plus its not Health Insurance that’s the problem; its the cost of Health Care. I shouldn’t have to declare bankruptcy or go on Ramen Noodles for five months just because I went to the hospital for two days. They’re forcing us to buy Premium Tires but doing nothing for the freaking potholes that destroy us if we hit them.

I guess I can vote Republican. LOL, NOPE! I’m for Conservative government where the government stays out of the way, not the MAGAland that Il Douche is turning this country in to.

Oh, to hell with it. Where my beer?

WCS

I have an idea:

comment image

herodotus450

pro-life (with exceptions) is a good description of the status quo

Redshirt

exceptions = rape, incest, life of child or mother.

I believe that when a man and woman choose to have sex, they choose to accept the responsibilities of having sex, either change in the relationship, betraying someone or conceiving a child.

In the instances of the exceptions above, the woman’s ability to have a choice was taken away or in the last case, the situation has changed and she should decide how to proceed.

Gratliff

If you consider war and dying from preventable diseases and execution and contaminated water and unsafe work environments and your occasional mass shooting as the exceptions, you get real close to the heart of the Pro-Life platform.

scotchnaut

You’re pro-life and pro-death? Kill yourself.

herodotus450

And fuck-life in between.

Redshirt

Not sure if joking or serious.

If comment is serious: Nice way to have a dialogue with someone. Insult them so they shut down and you don’t get a chance to influence or change their opinion. If you’d notice, I didn’t say anything about Gay Marriage. Five years ago I was against Gay Marriage. Now I am for it. I am so for it, I didn’t even think about mentioning it because its an afterthought for me. That only happened because of frank discussion on the topic and soul searching. You think I would’ve found that if I was told my life has no purpose because my views are such an insult to humanity that I’m bringing it down.

When you denigrate someone, they go defensive and run to what’s comfortable.

If comment is joking: I’m going to live a nice, long life so I can continue to piss you off.

scotchnaut

My intention was to throw out a hard-edged joke that highlighted the two extremes of your beliefs. I’ve nothing against you.

Redshirt

That’s what I thought. Its seemed way out of character for you so I responded in a way that defended my view without directly insulting you. We’re good.

Comment on, Internet Friend. Comment on.

Romonobyl

I do have your back Redshirt, not so much for your beliefs but for your right to have them. Some of the commenters here are radically left and don’t appreciate having their windmills tilted, so I can’t help but be Mr. Quixote every now and then. An open mind is a wonderful thing, and I respect everyone’s values even if i don’t agree with them. I haven’t always gotten that in return, but life goes on.

Redshirt

I know this website is left, as I have found with some impassioned responses to some comments.

I have never felt threatened by it, and me feeling comfortable sharing my views supports that.

Now if we can only lock all 536 people (senators, representatives and Trump) in the House Chambers and keep them there without food, water or heat/AC until they understand open dialogue and respect for other people’s views, then this country will be back on track.

King Hippo

yeah, because having a governing body of diverse ideology should be a strong point. Even though I am predominantly liberal (well, socially liberal and economically center-left), there are certainly going to be times when the conservative point of view may hold the key to solving a certain problem, or pointing out a certain reasoning flaw in a program.

No one ideology is going to be correct all the fucking time.

Romonobyl

THAT I can get on board with.

ballsofsteelandfury

That’s part of why I wrote my post yesterday. I understand some of the more vocal commenters are left but I don’t want this site to be considered left. I think we should be considerate of other people’s viewpoints and try to put ourselves in their shoes to increase understanding. That was my purpose yesterday, but it seems it was lost.

Romonobyl

I read your post and agree with what you said. I had to submit a comment of course, but probably too late to matter.

Germany just elected an experienced capable leader but they got to elect a conservative-plural government she’ll need to coalition-build with. In short, we need multiple parties (and repeal of the congressional apportionment act).

Unsurprised

Plus I can’t vote Democrat, because I am pro-life (with exceptions), pro-death penalty and anti-gun control (a person shouldn’t have a machine gun, but a semi-auto in their house to protect themselves is fine by me).

That describes the Democrats. They’ve given up on abortion as a plank are are officially the conservative party in the U.S. The Republicans are insane fascists, but Democrats are conservatives, even if they call themselves (neo-)liberals or centrists or moderates, by any standard metric they are the Edmund Burke definition of conservatives. They want to maintain the status quo with incremental changes and an obsessive devotion to authority and hyper-capitalism. So, congratulations. You’re an ass-man now.

My son forgot that I work from home on Wednesdays-I heard him singing this tune from the top of his lungs this morning while he was in the shower. Thing is, when he was 3/4 years old I would crank this tune in the car and sing it in all kinds of weird voices and he would laugh his ass off.
