Ellen made it with Howard Stern on air to try and distract from the Bush thing. (actually it's more like he pressured her to. He joked that would make people forget, she quickly changed the subject, and he kept bringing it until she said ok)

Zwabu posted:I live in a super righty TX suburb and feel it's more of an economic strata thing than a lefty righty thing. Even in this football crazed state and town increasingly I see the well off educated people I work with here not willing or eager for their kids to play football because of brain injury considerations. That matches with the poll I found tying people's support for their kid playing football with their income. I swear I saw one with a political cross tab but any search for football and Republican/Democrat returns so much conservative media outrage poo poo that I can't find it.

evilweasel posted:willingness to listen to science and expert opinion, as opposed to tradition and doing things "the way they've always been done", is a very big left/right divide. rejecting that is sort of the essence of conservatism I'd put money on the table that it's more akin to antivax stuff which isn't a straight split. Tarezax posted:There is a left-right dichotomy of desirable displays of masculinity, but whether that overrides worries over child health probably varies a lot Yeah, I thought about that when I originally posted it, and I suspect denying it leans Republican, but I'm skeptical at that being the primary division.

I saw a CBS Sunday Morning segment on him and he seems much different than he used to be. I can’t imagine he’d be able to pull off the lesbian porn-loving shock jock thing forever, but it was a real surprise how thoughtful he was. Or does he still use the same old persona on radio?

He started going to therapy some years ago and has come out pretty vehemently against his old personas. I dunno if he's apologized for them but he's definitely said he isn't proud of what he used to do: https://www.washingtonpost.com/life...7766_story.html

I can't find the piece I read this in, but the crux of it was that football is seen as a surer ticket to a college education for athletically gifted boys in black communities than in white communities. So it's much more of an economic divide than a political one (though obviously income and politics relate,) but even more broadly it relates to race and how a racist education system gives white students more paths to success than black ones. (there's even a race breakdown within the sport itself. The positions that we perceive as "white positions" (kicker, quarterback, punter) are disproportionately white because there are so few relative spots for them on a roster. That means that there's a lot of pressure for prospective players at those positions to talk to specialty trainers or go to camps for those positions— which are very expensive, therefore favoring wealthier (and therefore generally whiter) students.)

But Trump is the driving force in all of that. I went and canvassed for Beto during the campaign. The coordinator's home we met at like 80 percent of everyone there was a first timer canvassing like me, 80 percent of them were women, and like 90 percent the primary motivation was "gently caress Donald Trump".

He had a fantastic interview on Conan O'Brien's podcast, Conan Needs a Friend. He still slipped in some blue material here and there but he knew it's mostly schtick at this point and he's more into having honest conversations with celebrity guests. No clue how the Sirius show is going though. Really recommend the podcast, it's very raw and funny.

I can't imagine sarcastic quotation marks are generally commonplace in legal correspondence. Edit: Can a document even conceivably be both client-attorney priviledged and executive priviledged at the same time? Aramis fucked around with this message at 20:40 on Oct 15, 2019 |

for what it's worth that letter is so wretched that if the house moved to enforce that subpoena rudy may have waived every defense to the document request by not actually making any serious objection (since just throwing in every objection, with no explanation, often is not sufficient to preserve the objection)

It's why I don't think TBI will kill football, at least not for a while, because it won't be the kids who go on to play in the NFL that'll get pulled by concerned parents. Also poor risk evaluation skills and the hope of getting out of generational poverty will still have many disadvantaged kids participating.
