What's weird about Tanking for the One Indispensable Prospect theory is how few championship teams are actually built that way lawyersgunsmoneyblog.com/2020/12/nfl-op…
Burrow was almost as hyped as Lawrence and if we did the 2020 draft over again the #6 pick (and 3rd QB taken) would almost certainly go #1.
LOL all those "the Jets pulling off a historic upset was ACTUALLY bad" takes are even dumber than they were at the time espn.com/nfl/boxscore?g…

Trump's pardon statement for the Blackwater mass murderers: "the situation turned violent." lawyersgunsmoneyblog.com/2020/12/and-th…
Starting to randomly fire machine guns and grenade launchers at people just minding their own business does tend to turn situations violent, yes. There is no moral distinction between this and pardoning Dylann Roof.
By the way, just to show that Trump's instinct for giving a pass to white supremacist violence has deep roots in the contemporary GOP, can we talk about Bush I's replacement for Ken Starr and Janice Rogers Brown throwing out three of these sentences on 8th Amendment grounds?

I knew the Jets upset was going to bring a wave of X-Treem Tanking Theory, but not noticing the flaws of hooking your One Indispensable Player theory of team building to...Andrew Luck is wild: theringer.com/nfl/2020/12/20… Image
Luck, who 1)retired prematurely because of the pounding he took behind Ryan Grigson's O-Lines and 2)whose teams topped out at "winning a weak division and giving the living shit kicked out of them in the conference championship" shows precisely that winning the draft ain't enough
The other obvious problem with using Luck as your "the Jets are doomed because they didn't get the One Indispensable Player in the 2021 Draft" proof is that by far the best QB in Luck's draft was selected after a replacement-level punter

Blaming "Congress" for the failure to pass a relief bill when Democrats have supported one since May and Republicans have consistently blocked it is essentially a contribution in kind to the Republican Senate conference
The bad faith of Republican negotiation blaming "Congress" willfully covers for is best exemplified by Pat Toomey risking blowing up negotiations by trying to take stabilizing powers away from the Federal Reserve: lawyersgunsmoneyblog.com/2020/12/republ…
Is there any principle involved here? Haha no, the Republican conference actively supported these measures under a Republican administration. They just want people to lose their jobs, homes and in some cases lives to handicap a Democratic administration. That's it.

I see the Roberts Court is continuing its twerpish trend of issuing party-line votes in highly controversial cases as per curia
The "Bush v. Gore" per curium, and you have to concede that your chambers wouldn't want your name on them either
Today it's Breyer that draws Unanswerable Dissent duty, responding to the Court's holding that the Court cannot rule about Trump's illegal plan to exclude undocumented aliens from the census because we can't be sure that it will work
