NFL Ratings Drop Again; Another Major Advertiser Cancels Ad Buy
Meanwhile, Outkick the Coverage quotes Disney president Bob Iger on why Jemelle Hill was not suspended for her outrageous political claims, even though Curt Schilling was fired for his: because she was just expressing what she "and ESPN were feeling."[IGER:] "We need to take into account what Jemele and ESPN were feeling during this time."Wasn't Curt Schilling expressing what he was feeling? When Linda Cohn was suspended for saying ESPN was alienating viewers with its frequent leftwing political drama, wasn't she expressing what she was feeling? Ah, I see: Jemelle Hill was expressing what ESPN itself was feeling, as a corporate entity, in addition to what she was feeling. Iger says so -- it was what Jemelle Hill and the entire corporation ESPN were "feeling" at the time. Confirmed: ESPN is by self-definition a left-wing sports and politics organization, and less and less with the politics.

We used to be avid fans. All sports in our house (except curling). But no more.

That's a cultural appropriation of table top football.
We used to play that in high school when I was a student a couple years ago. You fold up a piece of paper in a triangle shape and then slide it back and forth. You either score a touchdown by having it stop with part hanging over or you turn the ball over and the other guy slides it back at you trying to score.
You'll be hearing from my lawyer.

A touchdown is scored when a player advances the ball such that it comes to rest with part of the ball extending over the edge the opponent's end of the table without falling to the ground.

you cards fans are like Yankees fans - so spoiled! If I didn't watch the playoffs because my team wasn't in the mix, I would never watch them. Actually, it's a bit relaxing to just sit back and enjoy the skill of players on both sides when you are not emotionally committed to one team. (But I would pick the pin-and-needles agony of the Crew being in the race anyway.)

Our management team at work is highly disliked by a majority of the employees. To improve morale, the management team decided to organize a softball team.
They had their first practice a few days ago. The manager who is the most disliked and least respected was running to catch a fly ball and heading right towards the fence.
Not a single teammate warned him the fence was there or said a thing. He went facefirst into it and sprained his ankle.
I'm sure I'm going to hell by thinking that is incredibly funny.

By seeking ever greater viewership and the MONEY that goes with it, the NFL now had to play by the politically-correct media culture's rules. It had to water down the product in order to appeal to women and also allow itself to be hijacked as a vehicle to "raise awareness" for things having nothing to do with football--such as breast cancer.
Now it's become a bulletin board for grievances and politics.
In seeking a bigger spotlight for their product, they painted a bigger target on their back.

I tell a story. It's not a true story, but it helps crystallize my thinking that brought me to become a conservative. I say: Imagine being in a restaurant with an old friend, and you're catching up, and suddenly he blurts out, "I hate my wife." You chuckle to yourself because he says it every time you're together, and you know he doesn't hate his wife; they've been together for 35 years. He loves his daughters, and they're just like her. No, he doesn't hate his wife.
So you're having dinner, and you look out the window and spot his wife, and she's being beaten up right outside the restaurant. You grab your friend and say, "Come on, let's help her. Let's help your wife," and he says, "Nah, I'm sure she deserves it." At that moment, it dawns on you: He really does hate his wife.
That's what 9/11 was to me. For years and years I'd hear my friends from the Left say how evil and horrible and racist and imperialistic and oppressive America is, and I'd chuckle to myself and think, "Oh, they always say that; they love America." Then on 9/11, we were beaten up, and when I grabbed them by the collar, and I said, "Come on, let's help her. Let's help America," and they said, "Nah, she deserves it."

He, VP Pence, and Trump have all said today that that is fake news. It never happened. Tillerson called a press conference today to steadfastly deny it. He said he has never threatened nor considered quitting and he will serve as long as the President feels he is contributing.
I watched the press conference. Tillerson is some kind of pissed at NBC and CNN. When asked by a reporter if he called the president a moron, he said he wasn't going to deal with this petty stuff.
The President then tweeted from Air Force One that NBC is now worse than CNN for fake news.

(Seriously. They tried to "unionize" his animators, and he "broke" the effort by reminding them all he'd done for them, including inventing the work they were doing *AND* founding the school they learned their trade at, but also all the personal help he'd given them over the years. Afterwards, his movies went from "masterful works of a new art form" to "cheap escapism to keep the proletariat distracted from their plight".)

Oh, terrific. There was one update a while back that went in and turned off some things and turned on others and it took a long time to sort them out. I remember going online to Apple support looking for help and not finding any. I only cottoned on to the changes by sheer dumb luck. Not looking forward to that again.
Posted by: bluebell at October 04, 2017 05:29 PM (UoSKV)
Yeah Apple loves doing that shit. Of course so does Windows and Google. "Hey look we've got new features for you to try! We'll turn all those on and not tell you, oh and we'll also turn on all these features you turned off the last time we did this and you've forgotten where they are all located, or we moved them around! Aren't we great!"

I watched the press conference. Tillerson is some kind of pissed at NBC and CNN. When asked by a reporter if he called the president a moron, he said he wasn't going to deal with this petty stuff.
The President then tweeted from Air Force One that NBC is now worse than CNN for fake news.
Posted by: Jen the original at October 04, 2017 05:34 PM (rgkQJ)
While I do not trust or believe the MSM, Tillerson has been at odds with PDT on almost EVERY foreign Policy from the get go and rather vocal about it also. So in this case I believe where there is smoke, there is fire.

The funniest scene of any sitcom, IMHO: in the Odd Couple, Oscar is trying to be nice to Felix. He makes him orange juice. Felix says "I don't like pits in my juice", and proceeds to spit out some pits. That night Oscar has a nightmare in which Felix is screaming at him "I DON'T LIKE PITS PITS PITS! IN MY JUICE JUICE JUICE!" and he rolls up a newspaper, sleepwalks into Felix's bedroom and beats him over the head with it.
