  1. Yeah, no shit. Scipio needs to tell us where on the doll the strawman he keeps arguing with touched him. He's insufferable about this, his writing talent notwithstanding.
  2. Sark needs to be told this is the offseason for the Hail Mary staff reboot. No staff reshuffling two years from now. He won’t, but he should be. And it won’t make a shit either way. The same dipshit that hired these fools, and let them fall asleep on the job, will be in charge of hiring their replacements. Lovely.
  3. Sark seems like a good guy. He's great with media. He comes up with some cool plays, but not really an offense. I hoped things would work out for him here, but figured they wouldn't. Oh well, on to the next dude in a year or two. We go 1-1 to finish out the season and play in some shit bowl no ones cares about.
  4. Then you haven't been watching carefully enough. He's always been like that, along with 99% of meathead jock coach types. It's a mix of narcissism and strong self-confidence, which you must have in sports. But the ability for critical self-reflection and a "hey, maybe I'm the one that needs to change" attitude is not something you're going to find in a coach. Better to cut bait and try find the dude that's already got it figured out.
  5. Perhaps it's just because my team is shitty, but the playoffs don't excite me at all this year. Lots of mediocre football teams.
  6. I would like to give Sydney Sweeney a try. Similar odds.
  7. It’s obvious Sark’s not the guy, but he’s not going anywhere this year. Only question is whether he tries (or is forced to try ) the old staff reboot Hail Mary bullshit. We’ve seen that movie before.
  8. I barely remember the 1st one.
  9. I never realized how much the bass contributed to the sound of Maggie May until I listened to some bass covers. I love all the fills at the end of each line. I also never knew Ronnie Wood played bass on it.
  10. I agree with you the ROI on a half billion spent on the cops does not seem "great" in our fair city. But we're locked in with the contract we have at the moment. On the homeless bullshit, you fell for the trick the pencil fuckers wanted you to. That's 10 mil only for the "strategy office." There's $80 million in homeless spending buried in social service contracts (source: 25-26 budget online, pg 379). And the level of grift and waste flowing through that contract "process" is no doubt mind boggling. In the 25-26 budget, homeless spending is over 50% of the amount allocated to parks and rec spending. That gives you a sense of the scale. The social services contract spending in particular has ballooned tremendously. In 2014-15 budget, it was about $7 million. Now it's 80 million. Does it seem like the problem is getting any better? Blindly paying out money to non-profits and NGOs with no real accountability doesn't solve anything. It's just wasteful.
  11. I loved the bit about the under secretary being the only guy "intact," wearing a suit. Lulz.
  12. Nikki Glaser is a national treasure. What the fuck is wrong with some people?
  13. Dennis Hof checked in ahead of me in a hotel in Greenwich Village about 15 years ago. I was starstruck.
  14. Give me your credit card number, your cvv, and your address, and I'll tell you if your credit card info has been leaked in a hack.
