The Knights of Columbus are racist, homophobic bigots, etc
Where did she say she doesn't want them for federal judges? Or that they are racist or homophobic or bigots? She asked a number of questions regarding how, as a judge, he would approach issues where the Knights of Columbus have expressed a position, particularly in regards to same-sex marriage and reproductive rights, two issues where the Knights of Columbus have taken positions that are contrary to the law. Which of her questions exactly do you find unreasonable?

Top Chef: Kentucky
Service is a weird deal for restaurant wars. Good waiters have real jobs they can’t just ditch for a day. The waiters also have no real incentives when it doesn’t seem like there’s any gratuity and it’s a one-off gig so they can’t get fired.

That’s a postseason ranking, not a preseason one.

Vice - Christian Bale, Steve Carell, Amy Adams and Sam Rockwell
Bale will definitely be nominated and could certainly win (I’d give Cooper slightly better odds, but that’s it). There is very little chance Carrell is nominated and virtually zero chance he wins. Rockwell is more likely, as is Amy Adams.

Vice - Christian Bale, Steve Carell, Amy Adams and Sam Rockwell
Despite Bale’s phenomenal performance, this movie was not good. I loved The Big Short but Vice was like if you did The Big Short as a biopic of Lewis Ranieri and James Cayne.

New UT Basketball Arena
You don’t think Duke students go home for the holidays? Kansas is a bit unique in that even when they go home, home is only 30-45 minutes from campus for most of the students.

2018-2019 MLB Offseason Thread
Yeah, they didn't get fleeced in the sense that the trade was imbalanced. Their return is much better than what they gave up. The return just isn't useful to their current situation unless their plan is to flip Puig, Wood, and Kemp during the season for prospects.

2018-2019 MLB Offseason Thread
I have no idea what the Reds are doing. Great trade for them if their long-term goal is to win 75 games next year.

Survivor: David vs. Goliath
It’s 100% accurate, both in Survivor and in society, that women are held to a different standard and are often hated for behavior for which men are not only hated but sometimes even praised. I think Chrissy is a probably a recent example on the show. And Nick, if a woman, would have been mocked for being dramatic and/or a whiner for his comments about being blindsided a couple of times. Fortunately, this was not why Angelina was so hated - by the audience or her cast mates. Her problem was not that she was strong or opinionated or cunning. Her problem was that she tried really hard to be all of those things, was spectacularly bad at all of them, and yet lacked self-awareness such that she thought she was absolutely crushing it.

Little Big League is the most underrated baseball movie by a wide margin- W Anderson Lane
District Kitchen is good but pricey. I loved Suzi’s on S. Lamar but the north location was never as good for whatever reason.- Penny "Laverne" Marshall Died -- Actress and groundbreaking Director
Agreed, and I love all three of those.- Want to be a UT contractor? Pledge your loyalty to Israel
If not, the district is probably a member of the TASB Risk Pool so the costs are being spread among the 1000 member districts.- Want to be a UT contractor? Pledge your loyalty to Israel
Since the article doesn't say, the school district is Pflugerville. She sued Pflugerville ISD and Ken Paxton. I would imagine Yeakel or Pittman should make pretty quick work of this.- Texas District Court Strikes Down the Entire Affordable Care Act
There is no federal law requiring basic auto coverage. Those are state laws.- Top Chef: Kentucky
I'll miss Gail this season but Nilou is a nice sub if she's going to be sticking around- The Challenge: Final Reckoning - Premieres July 10th
I think he’s pretty universally regarded as one of the all-time greats from a pure physical perspective.- Survivor: David vs. Goliath
He also wrote School of Rock and a bunch of other movies and tv shows. He’s not crazy rich but he’s earned millions.- Survivor: David vs. Goliath
He asked and then paused for anyone to speak up. When he started speaking again, she interrupted him. It’s near impossible to imagine a scenario where Angelina isn’t at the end because they all want to be sitting next to her and yes, it’s going to be an absolute fucking beating listening to her plead her case.- Survivor: David vs. Goliath
Some weeks, like this one, production focuses WAY too much on the vote being a surprise that how we got there is completely indecipherable.- Bettors Bagging Big 12 Ball in Bowls
It has to do with them being “not good”, unless we’re saying Texas is also not good. I already explained why I think the line looks about right. - The Baseball Movie Rabbit Hole
