So today I went door-to-door for the Clinton campaign. The very first house where someone answered the door, and this is in North Suburban Cincinnati, had a massive Steelers flag out front and the man and woman who answered the door wearing a Steeler shirt Steelers branded sweat pants yellow and black shoes and there was a Terrible Towel mounted above the fireplace.

Everyone else was nice.

quote:

“I couldn’t disagree more, Gary,” Goodell responded when asked about the criticism that the league hasn’t made any progress with regards to domestic violence. “Very easily. Because what you see here is a policy that’s evolved. We’ve learned a lot. But these are complex matters. And when you talk to the domestic violence experts, which I don’t know if you do, but these are difficult matters to deal with. You have rights. You have families that you have to be concerned with here. You have privacy issues. And yes, you want to make sure that you’re doing everything possible to address these when they happen. But you also want to deal with them to prevent them from happening.

“I think we’ve made tremendous progress. Can we make more and will we make more? Of course. But society in general, we all need to do a better job, including other entities. But the NFL, I’m only responsible for that, and we have to continue to get better.”

quote:

“Ultimately, what you want in a domestic violence case is to get back to a healthy relationship and not to make it even more complicated, and that’s the hope from the education through the first offense to hopefully you don’t ever see a second offense.”

quote:

The NFL’s 2014 code of conduct policy calls for a six-game minimum suspension in cases of domestic violence. However, it also states that aggravating and mitigating factors must be taken into account, and the league determined in Brown’s case that a full six-game ban couldn’t be levied based on the information available.

“The policies and the procedures and the penalties for domestic violence, it is the only offense that I know of where the second offense is banishment,” Goodell added. “Now, some people would say, ‘Well, why isn’t it the first (offense) when it comes to domestic violence?’ Well, in that August 2000, when I went out speaking to various domestic violence experts, they actually recommended you don’t do that. They recommended that the first offense be six games — as a matter of fact, they suggested five (and) we went to six — and then they said banishment on the second, so they understand the circumstances, would be acceptable. They thought that was very strong.

August 2000

49ers worst team in all of American sports

:agreed:

There's literally nothing worthwhile about the team except Carlos Hyde. Not a drat thing. They've spent 4 straight first rounders on defense and have the worst defense in the gosh darn world. And the stadium is expensive as poo poo and people are fleeing away from their SBLs.

They offered us the ability to move up to the seats where people relinquished their SBLs. And expected us to pay the difference in SBLs. So they wanted to get paid for 2 SBLs for this trash rear end team.

gently caress them.

Probably as part of his job duties doing assistant work

ESPN Loses 621,000 Subscribers; Worst Month In Company History

http://www.outkickthecoverage.com/espn-loses-621-000-subscribers-worst-month-in-company-history-102916

Ratings you say?

These 621,000 lost subscribers in the past month alone lead to a drop in revenue of over $52 million and continue the alarming subscriber decline at ESPN. Couple these subscriber declines with a 24% drop in Monday Night Football ratings this fall, the crown jewel of ESPN programming, and it's fair to call October of 2016 the worst month in ESPN's history. But this isn't just a story about ESPN, the rapid decline in cable subscribers is hitting every channel, sports and otherwise. It just impacts ESPN the most because ESPN costs every cable and satellite subscriber roughly $7 a month, over triple the next most expensive cable channel.

ESPN might be gone in 4 years.

oak hills, catholic schools are for the overprivileged. not that oak hills is a magical fountain of the lower classes, the school district was created in response to desegregation and is something like 95% white

the football rivalry between Oak Hills and Elder ended a few years back because Oak Hills lost the game every year for more than 25 years running.

I had no idea who this was, so I Googled him and he's the former Bills OC, replaced by a dude who got fired after Week 2 this year? I'm sure the Jags are going to experience an offensive renaissance.
