Either way, it makes it funnier. Especially the picture of Cuban with the trophy. The only problem for this troll, it looks like all NBA teams' official websites are nba.com/[insert team name]. Good luck gtting that 90 grand.

Type http://www.heat.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; or http://www.pacers.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; ....yes they technically are on the NBA's site, but the direct domain names redirect there as well. if you type any of my company's subsidiary names with a .com, it takes you to our main homepage.

My high school has literally graduated no one even remotely famous. The closest thing would be the guy who just lost the election for Michigan governor.

No, that's firmly in the Dunkin bucket. A doughnut should either be great or avoided.

I have crippling issues with food choices. Whereas a normal human factors in what they like better or think is better as well as ease of obtaining, I ignore the latter.

Glad to hear at least one other anti-Dunkin's take. Their virtual monopoly on the donut market is literally the worst thing about New England.

I fucking hate their donuts and their "coffee." People in CO are all excited that they are opening around Denver. Damn sheep.

The last two times I was in a Boston Market, last being like 8 years ago, someone has thrown up. Once a little kid, once a choking adult, both major floor pukes. That was the end for me.

We actually have a Chick-Fil-A now, but I still haven't been. Definitely plan on losing my CFA virginity though.

CFA is good for fast food, but it's still fast food.

I had a Chicken Biscuit for breakfast the other day. The ingredients, listed in order of predominance, are butter, biscuit, chicken.

I find it hard to believe that Jerloma would patronize Chick-Fil-A given their pro-religious, creationist stance.

Nope. They don't discriminate...that's all that matters to me.

I don't even want evangelicals to decide that their deity changed his mind about homosexuals. I'd rather watch them choke themselves with their own rope while the rest of society moves on.

Not to get all high and mighty, but surely people can manage to not patronize a company run by people as repellant as this one. I mean, chicken sandwiches are not hard to find.

Yeah, J-Lo, that was a tad more than "made a donation to the GOP". The comments made them a rallying point for anti-gay marriage shitheads who then over-patronized to support a fellow shithead. If no one counter-stances, that becomes a successful business decision, even if only for the short term bump.

I honestly think the chicken at Popeye's is way better and I think they're fairly ubiquitous around the U.S. these days. (The red beans and rice side dish is quite good for fast food.)

Look man, I just needed a quick bite before heading through security and the great unknown of the departure terminal, and I didn't trust Moe's Southwest Grill or Quiznos for breakfast. Don't judge me!

Sure, it was disgusting, but not illegal and as long as the legal dominoes continue to fall, and they're falling quickly, the videos of those rallies at CFA are going to eventually be looked at the same way everyone looks at the anti-black rallies of the 50s.

What is Dan Cathy's crime besides being a Christian? He got this book when he was a kid and was told that following it's divine mandates will make him immortal and so he does. Sure, he may lack in critical thinking but he's an Evangelical Christian. Oppressing gays is tied into the fabric of his most sacred beliefs that he's been taught his whole life. Then when that brainwashing manifests itself in funding an organization trying to stop gay equality, we call him a bigot? Why? To Dan Cathy, believing that homosexuality is a moral transgression is no different than any other Christian believing that a Canaanite Jew rose from the dead.
