What would make this Seahawks season REALLY depressing would be if they didn't even have their first round pick because they traded it for a replaceable box safety the coaching staff has no idea how to use
Second straight third down completion on which Adams is neither discernibly covering anybody nor going after the QB
As bad as it is to massively over-invest in run stuffers, it becomes farce when you're helpless in the face of designed runs by a 73-year-old Colt McCoy when his team is trying to kill the clock
LOL well at least Adams was actually covering somebody

I love Pete Carroll, who led the only championship team I've rooted for since high school, but really, it's over
Given my abysmal taste in teams, the "best coach/manager of big league team I've rooted for" I think has only three serious candidates:
For work *with the team* I think it's Pete, for total body of work I'd say Sutter-Williams-Carroll. Honorable mention to Bob Johnson, Felipe Alou, and Lou Pinella

Classic Murc's law. If conservatives wanted to use 1/6 rioters discovering how awful prison is to advocate for comprehensive reform rather than to just advocate for selective impunity, they would just...do that, and nothing liberals say can make them do the former
First, you think that many fewer people should be in prison and sentences should generally be less harsh, THEN you argue that a judge should not act like a Fox News grandpa during a criminal trial, make up your minds!

"Following the arc of Noah's writing on this subject floods me an overwhelming sense that you can say whatever the fuck you want if you're an HLS professor even if you said the exact opposite thing 17 seconds earlier" lawyersgunsmoneyblog.com/2021/11/leave-…
I am just a country political scientist but my view is that the bar for evaluating the Supreme Court should be set at least a weeeeee bit higher than "did not literally vote to make Donald Trump dictator"
And this goes triple when you yadda-yadda stuff like "Leaving the Voting Rights Act a smoking crater" with a quick half-sentence

What an absurdly chickenshit call to impact a game like that
Yup. Normally complaints that refs are "changing the outcome of the game" by making normal calls is silly. But this is actually a case of a ref drawing attention to themselves with a huge impact for no defensible reason whatsoever
Bad calls are part of the game but refs who think the games should revolve around them are the goddamned worst

Wow who saw THIS coming kansascity.com/news/local/cri…
"Most embarrassing Greenwald moment of the Trump years" is an impossible question to answer with dozens of candidates, but his fawning interview with that not-actually-remoreseful abusive misogynist is certainly in the running thecut.com/2020/08/why-we…
I assume that he was able to bring single-payer to Kansas as a minority backbencher though

This statement is hilariously stupid. "You have the freedom of expression, unless the university or the governor thinks what you're saying is bad, or you're being compensated for professional services" oh well that's fine then
"It is important to note that we did not deny anyone their academic freedom, we just said you cannot say or do anything that will upset Emperor DeSantis and cause his assistant to send us an angry email"
