Fox Sports One
Commercials kinda lift me out the chair with the montage of the "number one" finger. The soccer clips and music are pretty tremendous too. Ditto the new underarmour and dicks football commercials. Dicks in particular. Kind of an artistry to pre-snap football and captures it well. Never rea...

Just a word. Calm yourself and keep moving. Nothing to see here. I mean, it shows your true colors but bottom line is that I welcome racists on my team if they can play. The players will sort out their internal issues in a jailyard kind of way anyway. No one on that team is legitimately offended by ...

Re: The I need to buy a house thread
A good RE deal is still a solid place to park money. Stocks have run up too much. Low increasing rate environment makes bonds look unattractive. Tax advantaged retirement just freezes money too long. I do think you need to consider property taxes, mortgage interest (less 25-40% presuming a full tax...

Re: Detroit Broke City
Recouping the bonds with property taxes from those businesses doesn't really affect John Q. Taxpayer very much and will mean an exceptionally unlikely chance of default.

Re: This Aaron Hernandez thing.
I'll say that there is no honor in snitching when you helped to kill the guy and all you want is 10 instead of 30. Vastly different scenario when you are a bystander vs a co-conspirator.

Massive problem for the pats. This was supposed to be the starting receiver next to Amendola. Gronk not looking good either. Not sure where you go if youre the Pats. I guess you wait for someone to get cut. Funny thing is I like the running game if Gronk plays. They could win a bunch of games anyway...

And how is it that you bust caps at someone and get a probation plea deal? Like to think a judge wouldn't allow that. Tons of judges around here make guys serve 24 hours on a 1st DUI but this Defendant is going to stand up and admit to shooting at someone and get probation?
