Being assertive and quick to respond at intersections and lights should be major component of all driving tests. If you're going to slow everyone down being tepid, you should just take public transport and save the rest of us

Preach brother! Are two tea bags better?? No, it is worse! Is your water bath temp? You have brought shame to your family

Fuck, this is all for the Saudis isn't it? They hate Iran and attacking Iran drives up oil prices for them. We're being used as a pawn in a cold war by the Saudis to drive profit. It's why there isn't any plan to do anything but shoot missiles, all they need is the pretense.

Have you watched the umbrella song dance? Pretty sure they are both somewhere closer to bi

It's wild to me that I still don't know the answer to whether clowney is/was any good, depending on how you look at him I feel like it's complete polar opposite opinion and it changes year to year

I don't think this list is either useful or accurate, very weird

Please don't, authentic Ben is the most entertaining regular guest on Mina's podcast, the screen grabs alone are worth the price of watching on YouTube

Shame they never let the rams have the ball ever again in that game for them to have a shot of just winning in regulation, weird that one game they made that rule that the last six minutes only the Seahawks could have the ball so the rams didn't have a chance

This is assuming we're talking about a single game, over the course of a series this becomes all hockey goalie

3,1,4,2 but if you had asked me before the Sam darnold season I would have put QB first

If it was up to me (it's not and no one asked) I would both nationalize it and require that all sports gambling be done at a physical location from a person, the fact we allow a highly addictive activity to be done on a device we have on our person 24/7 is probably bad

OMG, you guys they have a trillion dollar wealth fund. It's not the hundred dollar per person gambling fund, it's the million dollar per person oil exploration fund.

The disease of but trying is the thing that will kill baseball, competitive imbalance is the symptom, the commissioner needs to make actual prescription that might cost in the short run for the health in the long run

There is a competitive imbalance that has been created by large market money, but it is magnified by the majority (!) of teams willingness to not try and rely on tv revenue and people's willingness to go watch a game even if teams suck.

There needs to be a complete retooling of salary if mlb implements a salary cap. Minimum there needs to be a salary floor, incentives need to be put in place for teams that make the playoffs or maybe punishments for teams that don't make it at once every x number of years.

Italy I get, but French rugby is legit and historic.

But like 97-99 is clearly the worst and I hate that he's right

The bigots that say explaining the vast spectrum of human attraction is too hard to do have indoctrinated themselves to find non-cis partnerships to be "icky" and so struggle in the process of showing basic empathy to anyone outside their world view the same way they would a praying mantis

If only there was a better way that didn't require going to polling stations and could be fulfilled in the comfort of your own home without federal agents intimidating you.... And is actually more secure than in person voting

The more I think about it, the more fucked it is they let kwesi go. Feels like he made it through the end of the season because another team's QB had three poor games at the end of the season, but was then let go because that same QB had one good game. That's a terrible process

A little push back, there have been two out three games where the running game drove them, most of the season the run game had struggled for them (12 in DVOA), so passing game was elite in the first half of the season and the playoffs and he outplayed MVP front-runner in 2 out of 3 games this year
