So many people fall into the trap of thinking that the people who make their entertainment are wealthy and powerful.
The people who make your entertainment likely earn less than you. All that money you spend on big games goes to a handful of very rich people who couldn’t make a game of tic-tac-toe.

Packers’ comeback falling short because they don’t have a 4th and 1 play … it’s perfect. Flawless. This is all worth it now.

This is supposed to be two Super Bowl contenders?

I never understand that call for a coward's draw on 3rd and 14. You think you can win a Super Bowl but you never think you can pick up a third and long?

Republican senators are scared to death of their constituents. Democrat senators could use a little taste of that.

Seems to be a bit of a global issue that centre-right/right wing parties do whatever the right wing media tell them to do and centre-left parties do whatever the right wing media tell them to do

40 years ago we’d have congressional hearings falsely accusing metal bands of putting backwards messages in their songs that told kids to kill themselves & now we have a planet-killing chatbot that’s all like “bet you won’t commit suicide chickenshit bitch” & the government is like here’s $5 billion

Game dev is hard because there are a million correct ways to make a game but only one wrong way and it's to add online multiplayer

Re Eagles/Giants, bad calls are like lies, they never seem to happen only once, they’re chain reactions of increasingly ridiculous choices.
