  1. The logical end to this argument would be that obstruction shouldn't be a crime at all IMO
  2. I've seen Fight Club about 2-3 times and I still am not quite sure I understand what's going on there. But he was excellent in it!
  3. It was by far the most votes in an impeachment by members of the President's party in history. Beating the previous high set by Trump's first impeachment (from Mitt Romney). I think that alone speaks to how slam-dunk the case was.
  4. I didn't read the story but were they mailed to archives in a official state envelope? That seems like one of a number of ways it would be illegal....
  5. How is this effort even legal? Is it legal?
  6. I'm short the Yankees - I think Artie Moreno is gonna overpay
  7. One imagines this could be end of the line for Boris.
  8. The Correa situation is interesting because, again, it's pretty plausible to think that there aren't many (if any) teams willing to offer the kinda stupid money for shortstops that the Rangers did in getting Seager and Semien. The chances the Tigers are in it are practically non-existent at this point, but the only door that looks open to me is some sort of high AAV deal for less years. But still very plausible that someone will give him Lindor money/years
  9. Yes, how DARE Carhartt make a business decision? The horror!
  10. I mean, maybe it's excessive, but it's sort of remarkable to me that a bunch of American commentators have made bitching about how a sovereign country handles its own borders it's lastest outrage of the week. We can all have opinions, I guess, but setting aside the inconsistencies many have, at the end of the day, it's really none of our business. It's between the Australian govt and Novak Djokovic.
  11. So let me get this straight... the same people who bitch and moan about lax enforcement of immigration law in this country find it a crime against humanity when other countries execute immigration law as they see fit?
  12. Not what Tigers fans had in mind coming into the offseason when discussing bringing back arms from the glory days lol
  13. My immediate reaction is that while McCarthy is taking the bulk of the heat for that fiasco at the end, it's yet another example of how the love for Kellen Moore (and the fact that he keeps getting interviews) is just inexplicable to me. I don't get it. He's not that good, and the Cowboy offense has been a hot mess all season. That can't all be Dak and McCarthy's fault and not at all on the guy actually calling the plays.
  14. That seems to be what the former guy is lying about though
  15. Looks like Donnie is playing the race card again...
  16. Really sad situation playing out locally
  17. I guess I'm unclear as to how this is unique to the left. In general, we have a lot of people across the spectrum who don't do a great job listening to the other side or respecting their views.
  18. Yep. DirecTV is under no obligation to carry their speech, just as they are under no obligation to carry any other channel.
  19. Since you ignored it earlier: But let's be honest here.... conservatives are all about shutting down speech they don't like. That's really what this comes down to, and a big reason why the cancel culture debate is mostly just a bunch of bollocks in my view : the same people who complain about OANN today had no problem canceling Natalie Maines for her comments back in the day about the Iraq War. Or calling for Colin Kaepernick's head. It all comes down to whose ox is being gored.... if one wants to be really principled and say you are all about free speech, you need to do it in all instances. And one needs to be able to recognize that businesses making a business decisions or trusts making decisions in their private interests (ie. the dumb Dr. Seuss controversy) is not cancel culture, but simply business.
