Fuck the DH
A state senator (Democratic, no less) has spoken up to have the government burden the entire cost of the stadium at a rather astounding 4% increase in room tax, making it a public stadium that the team pays rent to play at.

Worked great for Oakland!

This is just a request for a bill to be drafted to be put on the agenda at a future session, and is somewhere between trolling and ridiculous. Journalists who are covering it in their serious tones for the news are laughing about it on social media, naturally.

If my point is how loving dumb it is to spend money on e-insults why would you ever think I'd pay to revert my avatar? The only reason SA allows such an immature form of, retaliation?, is because it makes them money.

Also, I was entirely right. D3 is a horrible loving game and pretty much everyone was disappointed in it. To that end I'm actually quite proud of this avatar. Because, you know, it defines who I am as a person, obviously.

Do you buy stickers that say "I have stupid opinions" and stick them on people that disagree with you in real life?

Of course you don't, especially not a goon. They'd get their rear end beat down.

Although yes, I'm very outspoken and will always share my opinion whether it's wanted or not; ESPECIALLY when it's calling out stupidity and I have the chance of irritating someone, but spending money on some e-banner is dumb. You shouldn't need to spend money on something no one gives a gently caress about to get the point across that someone is a loving moron.

I think whoever bought that banner got their money's worth already.

And Volkerball isn't a loving moron, he just has one moronic opinion: he likes the Raiders.

When I was 17, my father was so stupid, I didn't want to be seen with him in public. When I was 24, I was amazed at how much the old man had learned in just 7 years.

I don't know if it ever got anywhere near talking funding but San Antonio was courting them early on. Also they can always go be Kroenke's sidekick little brother in LA and make Stan more money.

London are never getting a team. Ever.

The NFL love to talk about it as if there's a significant population here who even give a poo poo about the NFL. There isn't. Even small-market teams like the Bills or Jags' support would take a nosedive figures-wise here.

London can have a team but they still have to sing the Star Spangled Banner and have Stealth Fighters fly over their stadium.

If London ever gets a team the games should all be required to be night games on Saturday or Sunday (so they're actually in the afternoon). I have to start watching football at 8:30 AM when the Colts play the Jags and that's the night after I'll be at a wedding. Hair of the dog I guess.
