There'd be nothing wrong with paying the mentally retarded $2 an hour, that's what they're worth! And they'd never starve because free market.

I'm not a Marxist revolutionary, but I want to murder a CEO once an hour, every hour, until people stop being loving stupid.

At this point just have Obama take every CEO and tell them to raise the minium wage or else he'll blow their head off with a shotgun and ask the next in command to raise the wage.

Not handicapped. Mentally handicapped, literally not cognizant enough to realize they're being taken advantage of.

Yea like, some dude with a gimp leg, he knows he's being hosed, but Forrest Gump doens't know two bucks an hour isn't a fair wage, and that's what our founders would want.

The day after Colbert won the Spoken Word Grammy over him, no less.

Lemme guess, they want to eliminate the kickoff because "player safety." And I'm calling it now: the only reason why they're considering getting rid of the extra point because Belichick wanted it.

Kickoff isn't going anywhere, these places love to take one dude saying 'eh (thing) could maybe be a little risky, maybe we can finetune that' and take it as "THEY GONNA REMOVE (thing)!!!!"

Would it really surprise you if they cite player safety as a reason to get rid of it and they manage to do it, though? It's the sports equivalent of the Red Scare.

By the way, Vladimir Putin has a Patriots Super Bowl ring... might as well get a tip from him.

Well unlike the Red Scare player safety is a real issue, and no considering how resistant the NFL is to changes unless they have mountains of proof like it took to get them to MAYBE think about solving the concussion issue IF THEY CAN SWING THE BILL, they're not going to just randomly remove something no.

I should also mention Roger Goodell is totally insincere about player safety because he still very much wants an 18-game season. He's going through the motions without doing much of anything.

Justin, please say you're coming back next season.

The funniest thing about the Browns coach search was that everybody they wanted said "no" except this guy. They are a sad sack of a team.
