    Who didnt see this coming?

    An Italian woman couldn't find a man by the time she hit 40, so she married the one person who could give her the luvin she needs. Yesterday she married herself. I'm not kidding.

    Not at all. They absolutely have the right to protest. But because they aren't children, they also have the obligation of personal responsibility in owning their protest and having to face the consequences that society levies upon them. Newp. The MSP post had nothing to do with you.

    AND, the 22-member Michigan Legislative Black Caucus are not happy at all with the head of the Michigan State Police for sharing a Facebook post calling NFL players who protest during the national anthem "anti-American degenerates," "rich, entitled, ungrateful," and "millionaire ingrates who...

    I don't think anyone has said they don't have the right to protest. The problem is they think their right to protest extends to infringing on the right of others to criticize the protest. They think everyone else should either join in the protest, or shut up about it. Aaron Rogers, the GB QB, is...

    Strip Down, Facing Me

    When you go to to the store to buy something and the clerk says, "Strip down, facing me," trust me, they're not talking about you, they're talking about your credit card.

    American Bridge, an opposition research liberal Super PAC (that the media laughingly calls "left-leaning") founded by David Brock and is closely associated with Media Matters, described by the NYT as an organization which "aims to record every handshake, every utterance by Republican...

    Load One rolling strong in Sept!

    I sat in Reno for 4 or 5 days and just wore Fuddruckers out. The elk burger is pretty tasty. It was suggested I move to El Paso, which I agreed to do, but stopped in Vegas for the night, then Phoenix for a day or so to see what would happen. I got a load from Calexico to Romulus (with a transit...

    None whatsoever, no. Squirrels have bigger. Professional athletes, because they have unique talents, abilities, and skills, their contracts are (almost always) categorized as personal services contracts. It means they can be required to attend team events (like Fan Fests) and other things, and...

    DirecTV is refunding NFL Sunday Ticket subscriptions, restaurants and sports bars are no longer showing the NFL Ticket. The NFL has hijacked this whole thing to use in a branding effort, and it's a bad brand. It should have been nipped in the bud last year, especially since the NFL has some...

    I disagree. Most everyone has been a victim of some kind of invalid bias or discrimination. Most everyone has been witness to invalid bias or discrimination. It doesn't take a whole lot of understanding to say to yourself, "What if I were in his shoes?"

    TV networks refuse to show angry crowds protesting the protesters. Why didn't TV networks show angry, booing NFL fans Sunday or Monday?

    They're taking a knee to protest white cops shooting black people. Below are two of Chicago PD's finest posing with a local Chicago activist. The department forbids police officers from making political statements while in uniform and/or on duty.Two of the three people in the photograph are...

    African Football League, enjoy the monkeyshines!

    As my official opinion as an Administrator, I think it certainly has a whiff of racism. But it's not racist in and of itself, any more than is a banana peel in a tree. I recognize that everyone is a little bit racist, even those who say they aren't. Maybe even especially those who say they...

    African Football League, enjoy the monkeyshines!

    Maybe a "little" uncalled for. I'm not sure about "totally" uncalled for. The NFL is, after all, comprised of 70% African-Americans (their term, not mine). Is it racist, or an observation? I dunno. "Blacks are 10% of the population, yet 90% of the FInal Four." Is that a racist statement? Or an...

    refill DEF speed limited in 196 miles

    Ah, gotcha. With DEF, the term "crystallized" means ice crystals. When the water evaporates and you're left with nothing but the urea crystals, like rock candy or sea salt, that's certainly crystallized, too, in my book.

    On Sept 24 of this year (yesterday morning), Trump Tweeted: "NFL attendance and ratings are WAY DOWN. Boring games yes, but many stay away because they love our country. League should back U.S." He also Tweeted: "If NFL fans refuse to go to games until players stop disrespecting our Flag &...
