Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Hey Washington Post, “Democracy Dies in Darkness” was supposed to be a warning, not a mission statement.

“In the future, this lab will be a museum. do not touch it.”

Republicans choose power over democracy, every day.

Fight them, without becoming them!

Give the craziest people you know everything they want and hope they don’t ask for more? Great plan.

Never give a known liar the benefit of the doubt.

I’ve spoken to my cat about this, but it doesn’t seem to do any good.

Jack be nimble, jack be quick, hurry up and indict this prick.

Let there be snark.

SCOTUS: It’s not “bribery” unless it comes from the Bribery region of France. Otherwise, it’s merely “sparkling malfeasance”.

Speaker Mike Johnson is a vile traitor to the House and the Constitution.

Innocent people do not delay justice.

It’s always darkest before the other shoe drops.

I’d hate to be the candidate who lost to this guy.

Donald Trump found guilty as fuck – May 30, 2024!

Conservatism: there are people the law protects but does not bind and others who the law binds but does not protect.

When I decide to be condescending, you won’t have to dream up a fantasy about it.

This fight is for everything.

Roe is not about choice. It is about freedom.

Russian mouthpiece, go fuck yourself.

Dear media: perhaps we ought to let Donald Trump speak for himself!

The current Supreme Court is a dangerous, rogue court.

the 10% who apparently lack object permanence

Someone should tell Republicans that violence is the last refuge of the incompetent, or possibly the first.

    Not surprised the Chiefs are winning, mildly surprised it’s this easy. My own personal power rating had the Chiefs at #7 and the Texans at #12 coming into this game.

    I think the Chiefs will be the sexy pick in the next round, they’re playing better than either Denver or New England at this point.

    Home field, better record…

    But playoffs are QB time, and it’s 2-time SB winner vs. guy making 8th career start.

    If the Bengals can get some early breaks and keep a lead, maybe. If they get some bad breaks early, I could see it turning into a rout.

    I’m thinking the Seahawks are ripe for an upset, because of the ease with which they won the first matchup.

    I don’t think Lynch not playing is a huge loss, because they guy’s been on the shelf for half the season and isn’t going to be in top form. And in a crucial moment, Pete would go for the inside slant anyway. ;-)

    On the other hand, Minnesota doesn’t know anything about playing in the cold either. They’ve had a domed stadium until this year, and it’s been chilly, but not arctic all week.

    Catching passes in the cold is more difficult, but not impossible. If AP is stopped, Minnesota has nothing else to fall back on. If the cold knocks 15 points off of Wilson’s completion rate, he’s still throwing 60%.

    @Heliopause: Personally, I advocated the Texans trade for Matthew Stafford before the deadline. There are a number of reclamation type NFL QBs I would happily trade for. Nothing worth drafting. We have to get someone on the O side or lose JJ shortly, and probably Hopkins. Foster most likely will not see the field again as a Texan, but the RB spot has really ratcheted down in the last 3-4 years so not as big a problem as QB for us.

    We have a hockey game 1 block from the Stadium tomorrow. Games starts at 2. We know parking will be difficult and obscenely over-priced so are taking the tram. We don’t have to start out till after the drunks start puking INSIDE the stadium so thats good. I am prying for a huge blow out so the drunks start home early other wise we will be getting out shortly after the game ends & those same drunks will be puking inside the train cars. So thats one vote for an early 4-5 TD lead for the C-hogs

    @Schlemazel: I have a chance at getting a ride on a new boat for the racing series that starts next week. I have a feeling my chances go up if the Hawks win, because people will want to watch the game rather than stand on a pitching foredeck in the rain and cold.

    The Times had an article about what happens to the football in that kind of cold. Interesting stuff – I knew the balls got harder, but not that they also got smaller (which makes sense, if I’d thought about it: air contracts), and you have to throw a little harder.

    I hope the team practiced in a simulation – like, in a giant meat locker.

    On “deciding play”, first 15 was deserved…

    …second 15 was bullshit.

    Ridiculous brain cramps at the end by the Bengals, but the Refs practically gave the game to the Steelers. Sick, sick, sick.

    ETA: There should be a race to see who gets fired first, Lewis or the official that tossed the 2nd flag.

    Didn’t think it was possible for a team to out-dirty the Steelers, but, there it is.

    Just, wow Cincy.

    for what I saw of the Bengals – Steelers games, it was sloppy. the mess at the end with the penalties is a huge downer for the Bengals, part of me would blame the player(s) responsible for that but it’ll likely be the coach who has to answer for the bad penalties. Coaches are supposed to instill Discipline…

    If there is any justice, Steelers players responsible for illegal hits this game should be suspended for the next game.

    most bengals loss ever what the fucking hell. alot of cincy fans blaming refs, which maybe theres a case but still you cannot give the game away like that. so disappointing

    If you don’t do the dumb shit, the refs have no damn power. I mean seriously, they had the game won and lost their damn minds. I don’t give a damn what Joey Porter said to them.
    And looks like AB is in concussion protocol and Big Ben is likely out next week. We won’t do shit against Denver.

    @efgoldman: C’mon. Call that game up and down. The refs gave that game to the Steelers at the critical end. Hard to fight back against two personal fouls inside the last few seconds.

    Could anyone other than the Cincy fans have made Rapistberger look like a sympathetic figure.

    I mean seriously? Cheering a guy who’s injured and throwing garbage at him as he’s carted in for X-rays?

    WTF?

    And even leaving out the over cooked spaghetti it still tastes like something you’d scrape off your shoe before going in the house.

    @Corner Stone: yeah because a 32 year old player like Pac Man Jones shouldn’t know better than to run into a crowd and hit a ref 30 seconds after the play ended.

    @Corner Stone: right. im sorry your team fucked the dog, but they did everything they got called for. Maybe if they had won something before they’d know how to act at the end of a game when they have it won.

    Corner Stone

    @Honus: My team fucked the dog earlier in the day. But any honest observer understood the refs completely fucked the PIT-CIN game.
    That was awful and completely unprofessional. Just garbage time.

    Corner Stone

    @efgoldman: “Stupid shit like that” Like what? Have a ref call PF to the chip shot?
    Sorry. You and Merrill Hogie with bologna don’t do it for me on what happened to gift this game to PIT.
