If being obsessed with talking about football inflation were a reason someone didnāt have a job thereād be a lot of ESPN commentators collecting unemployment checks.
Obligatory:
Also - go Hawks!!! 12th Man!!!
Itās my belief that Inflationgate is getting so much air time simply because the talking heads get to giggle to themselves every time they mention āinflated ballsā
But we canāt disqualify the Patriots and hold a new AFC Championship game between the Colts and Ravens . . . it would delay the Super Bowl a couple weeks, think of the effect on the economy!
i canāt believe i was just duped into reading a sports comic. iām so gullible. /facepalm
Didnāt see that one coming! And is it just me, or does it look like Paul Krugman has lost a little weight? If so, we are definitely in a deflationary spiral. I expect the Fed to act accordingly, wrongly and ineffectually. As usual.
I was on an hour layover at the airport. The airport terminal gate is now become the ONLY place I ever encounter CNN these days. They dedicated a full hour to Deflate Gate. Ah, now I remember why I stopped watching cable news 15 years ago.
But seriously folks. GO SEAHAWKS!!! Beast Mode Shall Not Be Stopped! Tom Bradyās grandma wears combat boots.
I have allotted my daily dose of outrage to the fact that ādeflategateā made it into my āDomesticā newsfeed, instead of staying firmly in the āStupid Fucking Nonsenseā category where it belongs. The one upside being that Bill Nye shot down the Patriotsā coach attempt at science.
Other than that, I like The Onionās take on things:
Paul Krugman? I thought that was supposed to be Robert Reich!
Twin sons of different mothers. Or maybe ya seen one elbow patch jacket economist, ya seen em all.
I still <3 Paul for his Ayn Rand quote (and the paper on interstellar trading economics - I bet Charlie Stross <3s that paper too)
All these economists look alike to meā¦
That economist-ist!
Wonāt someone think of the economists!?!
Thatās why I like TtDB so much. You seldom do.
Bob? Dudeās a fake, just look at his elbows!
On the contrary, thatās two more weeks to sell more potato chips, beer, and Laz-E-Boys!
I wish that pictures for sad children hadnāt imploded. They had the best sports commentary comic of all time.
What, no patches?
