I made an edit to the movie that completely removes the horrifying-by-modern-standards Rene Russo subplot. That makes it a perfect movie.

I accidentally posted it two hours early then destroyed the evidence.

one of the clearest signs you're dealing with a strong and principled political movement is when they want to make it illegal to make fun of them

You forget the incredibly compelling "scammy people do scammy things" defence.

Also, the "unless we find a signed confession, we can't punish anyone for anything" defence.

I encourage everyone to look out for their safety and practice good internet hygiene, of course. But some of the scolding posts I've read suggest we can change the awful aftermath of a fateful event by just holding our tongues and being quiet little mice, and that isn't my experience.

I bet his dad is a Blackhawks fan.

it is ok not to post folks

The can't be an example of poor management by a scammy company. The scam was built into the endorsement contract itself!

The argument that maybe Aspiration didn't have the time/ability to ask Kawhi for promotion was ridiculous. First, all indications are that he was paid $21 of the $28 million owed. So there was time and reason. Secondly, the contract is written so that he can deny any request.

Watching Hamilton at the end of the American experiment is a different experience.

"All Kawhi had to do was promote Aspiration once and he'd be in the clear" misses the point: he didn't do any promotion for them because they were trying to avoid anyone noticing that he was being paid under the table.

Do you also think pre-NIL athletes should have cut ads with car dealerships?

Remember these guys? These were some guys.

I never got over that. Real end of innocence type stuff.

Prowl was my favourite.

"Isn't She Lovely" Stevie Wonder

That's good work. A big thing you're trying to accomplish with mound meetings is just to settle the kids down. Embarrassing them by using their slang should do the trick.

I talk about one every week for about 8 months a year.

"Africa" by Toto

Blues Traveler are an interesting case. A solid, working band within their niche, stays working for years before and after the public decided they liked their thing for 2 songs on their 4th album.

Debaser by the Pixies. And yes of course the pun is intended.

The very concept of a phone book, delivering everyone's phone number and address to every house in the city, blows my kids' minds.

For very good reason.

This specific trade probably wouldn't wait because it's a three-teamer.

Maybe Utah knows from several years of experience that there isn't much of a market for Collins (or maybe they killed the market by always asking for too much).

I appreciate that the new Jurassic World series shares its predecessor's inability to understand money. ScarJo's team of mercenaries initially agrees to go to Dino Island for NBA backup center money.

KAT and D'Lo on the Wolves, plus the other two mentioned.

If you're not yet sure how to celebrate Canada Day tomorrow, you could do worse than sitting out on a deck and hitting shuffle on this playlist: open.spotify.com/playlist/2pB...

List is dominated by my pre-parenting years.

Movie you’ve watched more than six times with a gif.

(“god mode” no franchises or films with any sequels)

Can we trouble you to identify the fourth Just a Guy? Wiggins? Bogut? K-Mart? Simmons?

None seem to fit.

I agree. But he's the only other one who was never an all-star.
