    In this golden age of podcasts, it's a travesty any of these useless goons have on-air employment.

    Damn jazz cigarettes.

    The looks like it should come with Alfred Molina in his underwear playing selections from Awesome Mix Tape #6.

    Nah. I stand by my "eh."

    Eh; going for a Pittsburgh sports teams-like synergy isn't a bad idea.

    Exactly. Even if you completely divorce politics from it, Trump is just a detestable, awful, wretched human being. I don't want my team being tainted by him.

    Frankly, I'm surprised by the default unwilllingness to discuss seriously any POV coming from a conservative, but that's probably because I'm a foreigner. Oh horsefeathers off. Hahahahaah! Yeah, if only we could be more like the melting pot of political and social tolerance that is Europe.

    it doesn't matter that they were both terrible candidates (which a lot of us agree with), it's that the one who somehow was able to win was the worst candidate ever. and it ain't even close. Isn't the worst candidate ever actually Hillary for managing to lose to Trump? He's talking about "worst" in terms of basic humanity, not the quality of the campaign.

    You're really reaching here.

    Frankly, I'm surprised by the default unwilllingness to discuss seriously any POV coming from a conservative, but that's probably because I'm a foreigner. Well, when the default is to come right out of the gate with things like, "guns aren't a problem" or "Trump and [insert random Democrat] are equally bad," that person is already indicating they're entrenched in a basically unmovable, unrealistic and unreasonable mindset.

    Go back to jehr's original post from before this got out of hand (as political discussions usually do nowadays); his original statement didn't use the word "equally" - that inference was added later by people who disagreed with him. I read his original post as him simply being unhappy with both (main) candidates, which sounds fair. NOBODY WANTS ANY OF YOUR STUPID GAZPACHO, LISA.

    Probably harder considering there's no pads to "protect" themselves in those sports. It also happens a lot less often and usually you don't see the same person getting concussed over and over. Basketball concussions can be bad too because their cushion when the fall is hardwood instead of grass. You are operating in the rarer occassions there, but theres going to be some risk in any contact sport. Of course there is; like I said, football just takes that inherent risk and makes it infinitely more likely on every single play.

    Thank horsefeathering Christ.

    With all these sports, you've got people diving/sliding and running into things or people, and there's just always the risk that your brain gets sloshed around too much because of it. Football just expands that inherent risk waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay more than we should be comfortable with.

    Things like general NFL corruption and shitty things done by players off the field and the Bears being terrible have all done a ton to turn me off of football, but the main thing by far is stuff like the GQ article. At some point in the last few years watching football just became really...unpleasant. That sounds really wishy-washy, but I don't know how else to describe it; before that, one of the main reasons to watch was to see the big hits, and all of sudden seeing that just left me feeling sick and anxious. It suddenly felt like watching a clip online of someone getting hit by a car or taking a bad fall; basically watching a game turned into the type of real life violence that I didn't and don't like seeing. It just stopped being entertainment and became real in a single offseason.

    I'm sure I did back in the day when it was hot and fresh, but NEVER AGAIN.

    There's a decent chance it's some kind of Daniel Stern in Rookie of the Year-type situation given who we're talking about.

    Hey, whatever you need to tell yourself.
