Dodgeball is nature's way of determining who is good and who is fat. Without dodgeball many children will grow up totally unaware that they are different, and that being different is in fact bad. Dodgeball teaches girls about the safety of the herd. Unless of course you're the dumb B word in the back who gets plugged in the face after all the nimble girls in the front scatter.
I had front row seats for the demise of dodgeball in school. When I was in elementary school and junior high we played dodgeball constantly in gym class with those super pumped up, vinyl kickballs of all sizes. Those were legit, and I dealt a few concussions and couple of KOs with those bad boys. By high school those had all disappeared and we were then playing with "gator balls" I believe they were called. They were foam and the threat of bodily harm and injury had been almost completely removed. At that point it just wasn't fun anymore.

I find the standard of butter and hot sauce to be not all that appitizing and here's why. Go back to grade 9 science. What happens when you mix a fat (oil) with vinegar. Or in this case butter and franks. They separate! There needs to be a binder, i use a very mild BBQ or ketchup and don't use much butter.
3/4 cup of franks.
2 Tablespoons melted butter
1/3 cup BBQ sauce (mild)
1/4 cup ketchup
2 Teaspoons celery salt
1 Clove garlic finely, finely minced.
Perhaps if you slowly drizzled the melted butter into the Frank's with a tablespoon of water and beat this concoction with an immersion blender you could achieve a proper emulsification and your sauce wouldn't break? I've had excellent results with using sodium citrate as an emulsifying agent as well. What are your thoughts?

Oh, my God. I am speechless at the level of ignorance displayed by this post.
Its not just ignorance on display, but a total absence of logic and reason.
High level, his post pretty much assumes that having an openly gay player in the league increases the chances of a player contracting HIV. Were we to break this post down we'd find that this position is built on the following assumptions:
There are players in the NFL with HIV.
Gay players have a higher incidence of HIV than straight players.
Openly gay players are more likely to have HIV than closeted homosexual players and straight players.
Openly gay players are more likely than closeted or straight players to infect other players with HIV.
and finally...
The tiny minority of openly gay players who have a higher incidence of HIV and greater infectivity will lead to more players contracting HIV than the the vast majority of heterosexual or closeted players with HIV, thus being an issue.
Thats simply astounding.

Its his legal property and he may do with it as he wishes as long as the body is disposed in accordance with state and county law. There's no story here.

Why someone would think they're qualified to discuss corporate tax code and criminal law after an hour long google search, I will never understand.

Yep, I know, that's why I say I try to avoid it as best as possible. I try to eat kosher prepped meats if I can help it. Shoving tubes down the birds throat and force feeding it all it's (brief) life just doesn't lend itself to an appetizing dish for me. Not judging others, just stating my own preference. Like I said, I'm a meat eater and always will be. But veal is on my list, and now foie gras, and I make some degree of effort to eat kosher meats.
Thats admirable. I don't order veal when I'm out for the same reason. That and its bland.
A quick synopsis of the pro-foie argument:
In upstate NY pretty much all the foie is coming from D'Artagnan affiliate farms which can be best be described as idyllic. The idea of force feeding by shoving the tube down their throat sounds revolting at first, but ducks eat whole fish and their gullets are tough as nails. Its rumored that some of the ducks will even line up during the gavage, eager to get pumped full of food. The studies they've done show that the ducks on these farms have lower levels of stress hormone (cortisol) than wild ducks. Basically they're pretty f@#$ing happy by duck standards. This likely wouldn't be the case if the ducks were being maltreated. I'm sure there are unscrupulous foie producers in France, but in the States its pretty well regulated from what I understand.
I think you can sear up a nice slice of meat butter and dig in to the fatty goodness with a clear conscious.

The Distinction or difference or dissimilarity or division is that naturally occurring homosexuality can be had on both scales, BUT, from the pro-gay side it is natural only to our genes, and for the anti-gay side, it’s natural only to our environment. There aren’t too many people saying that homosexuality is a product of both our genes and our environment. Does that about clear it up for you?
Tim-
What scales? What the hell are you talking about? No part of this rambling includes anything even resembling a point.
Had you any knowledge of genetics you'd know that the environment plays a strong role in actual genotypic expression. Look up any source concerning the supposed gay gene and you'll see theories regarding a complex interplay between the fetus' genetics and conditions in the womb. In summary, many people are saying exactly that.
Your baseline, naturally occurring but non-natural, narcissism theory is nothing short of ridiculous.

Actually no they are not natural, or normal, any more than any other anomalous trait in humans. In the definition of a pro-homosexual, anything could be natural and normal, the entire universe is natural and normal, but in discussions on science we tend to stray away from semantics when discussing ideas and principles that apply to standard variations. To apply a literal definition to every concept is completely unproductive. Even if homosexuality was naturally occurring, it could still be naturally occurring in our genes –or- our environment. Do you see the distinction? As far as environmental factors that contribute to homosexuality, I do not know. What I do know is that prior to the maturation of our prefrontal cortex we are young men and women are completely susceptible to a myriad of outside influences. THAT PART IS A FACT!
Outside influence can come in many forms, and affect everyone in different ways, it’s what makes the whole issue of causality so complex. I’m not professing to know for a fact what is right and what is wrong, but I do have my suspicions, and my own anecdotes, and until I am met with compelling evidence to the contrary, I’ll stick to my opinions just fine.
Tim-
Well, you didn't disappoint. Nothing is natural occurring or normal. I might have seen a distinction had you made one.

I’ll head you off at the pass before you even begin to present your standard narrative.
1. Because animals (what was it 1500 at last count) do the gay, it must be natural. Errrr, WRONG.
2. Twins studies show that being gay is genetic.. Errrr… WRONG they show the reverse.
3. Because I as a straight man am unable to change my adult sexuality, gays are equally unable. True, but I maintain that homosexuality is a manifestation of one’s environment that begins early in one’s life prior to the maturation of the prefrontal cortex. Look up what the PFC is and get back to me.
4. Gay kids who are younger siblings of older male brothers have shown a correlation to adult homosexuality. True, there is some actual science there, however, with small samples and study structure, is way too early for any reliable statistically significant data sets to come out.
So homosexuality isn't natural because they represent a minority in the population? I suppose dwarfism and albinism aren't natural either? Your "baseline" argument is absolutely ridiculous. While you're embarrassing yourself, please explain which environmental factors contribute to homosexuality?

I am just asking what document or informational area makes it a "Fact?"
Did you check the Homo Almanac?

Looks like everybody's here. The "I would actually like the gay player better" guy, the homosexuality makes baby Jesus cry angle, and "a gay player coming out is somehow comparable to a pride parade right through my living room" perspective. Super.

Is this a serious question? I think it would be much easier to list the things I did like about them:
1. The line "I'm the juggernaut, B word"
Sadly, that's about all I can think of.
I remember that gem and a dozen fleeting appearances by other X-Men fan favorites. X-3 seemed more about packing in as many characters as possible than furthering a plot. Wasn't there a change in director between X-2 and X-3?

How can fans possibly say "no" to any quarterback??
It'd be like shitting down a hole in our yard because we're holding out for a golden toilet.
Whoa...expected that to be censored...
How can fans continue to believe that bringing in every QB on the market is a solution to our problems?
Well, I'm sure if they could, the FO would cook up a better "option" in the OBD laboratory.
But since that's not an option...
Let me make another analogy--would you rather play five card stud with five cards or nine? The extra four cards don't guarantee anybody anything...but they certainly increase your odds.
Your analogy doesn't fit the situation. Picking a QB isn't a game of chance with fixed odds. A better analogy would be trying to field a basketball team by spending your limited resources on signing 10 million midgets to contracts. Although you have a massive sample size, you're still picking from a pool of individuals that has demonstrated that they are ill suited to play basketball. You'd be better off picking any 5 black guys at random.

Which one is it? If you can control what it learns and it wants to learn something but you won't let it than it can't learn all it wants.
I know this is PPP and pretty much anything goes but if you are physically threatening me I think that is beyond the pail and I suggest you apologize.
First it was drones, then artificial intelligence and now advanced, next-generation bucketry? We live in truly exciting times.

Diving in the NHL to result in a game misconduct and suspension rather than a 2 minute minor. Make diving a reviewable and suspension worthy offense if it goes uncalled during the game. That should end the diving pretty quickly.

Brilliant article.
http://www.cnn.com/2....html?hpt=hp_t3
Today, all Democratic congressmen from Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, South Carolina and Georgia are black, except for John Barrow of Georgia; and all Republican congressmen from these states are white, except for Tim Scott of South Carolina.All the Dems are black but all the Repubs are white, conclusive proof that the Republicans are racist. The author must have over looked the fact that the same pathetic argument could be applied to the other side. Sprinkle in some anecdotal evidence of racism in the South, imply that all racists are registered republicans, reaffirm that the GOP is too old and too white (a statement which would be wholly unacceptable if applied to any other group) and you're ready to print.
This is garbage even by CNN's sliding standards.

Well, my point was that defense doesn't win championships.
Anyway, go on with this idiotic thread and your "yo mamma" stuff and your tough guy routine (I think you meant you go 999-1, or 999/1000, not 999-1000). It's a slow day and I need entertainment.
Why can't you just take it at face value and understand that if your mother is a teacher she may also be a stripper, and were Defense to fight you one thousand times you would win one thousand times, but he would win 999 of those fights?

Comment from elsewhere:
Actually, legally the rights of self-defense may extend to protect another person: http://en.wikipedia....fense_of_others
I'm not a lawyer, but this would of course make perfect sense, as you are supposed to help others and are supposed to prevent danger. He hit the guy after another person was attacked. Texas extends rights of protection not only out to others but also out to property (as in land) and personal effects. We take our right to personal protection very seriously.
I'm not crying for the guy who got knocked out, but your "hero" didn't launch into action after the first guy was punched. He waited for an opportunity until the drunk basically lined himself up and then delivered a sucker punch.
