    Bye Roger you ginger haired fuck. Way to screw up a $40MM a year job based on hubris.

    Who am I kidding, some mid level VP will get fired and Ol' Rog will just take some sensitivity training or some shit.

    Or Goodell leaves, to be replaced by a basically identical underling.

    It is raining harder than I have ever seen in my entire life. You can't see anything outside. Nothing. I'm stuck in traffic because everyone is refusing to drive in it.

    Lots and lots! How else are the guys going to know how they look when they flex while lifting those big, heavy weights?

    Dammit I was hoping this post would start a new page. That chart is messing with my sense of order!

    None of this would have been an issue if he would have just punished the guy just a bit more seriously the first time around. Then again the media would be baying for any and all blood no matter what.

    He isn't going anywhere, and anyone who thinks fucking Condoleezza Rice is going to replace him are delusional.

    Goodell is a terrible commissioner that seems to be successful in spite of all he actually does. It's amazing how bad he is at that job and yet the league is continually growing. If it comes out that he actually saw the video a few months ago and gave THAT punishment? Shit might be on.

    I will say that ever how much of a piece of shit Rice is, there might be another side to this story. Dude might be on a better track now. This isn't abuse that happens down by the 7/11, dude can afford counselling and therapy. I know there is a lot of "can", "maybe" "might" in that idea, but that possibility does exist. Not all abusive situations are equal and maybe his situation can improve. Certainly, the attention and universal condemnation isn't helping.

    With that said, the striking difference for me is between this case and the Aaron Hernandez case. Hernandez was cut and essentially disavowed well before the investigation concluded, or really even got started. In Rice's case, the most damning evidence (the video) was in Goodell's hands months ago, and he let the investigation conclude before a slap on the wrist. Video goes viral and Rice gets dropped like a hot rock. It looks like the NFL is cutting Rice based on popular perception, not a stable precedent. That does not sound good for business.

    Has anyone heard of this new term women are using to refer to themselves in an almost proud and endearing way?

    Betches.

    What is this? It's like bitches, but not. I don't know what it is, but I find it annoying.

    I see people linking to articles talking about " Things betches do ". But the girls who post this shit are the desperately lonely and single girls who also post about why men are the reason that dating sucks.

    Help me understand.

    So am I alone in thinking that this:

    http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/11493722/baltimore-ravens-offer-fans-ray-rice-jersey-exchange

    Should result in them being given a jersey from Comrade Ogilvy? Perhaps they should have to wear their Rice jerseys as a penance - "I spent good money idolizing a pro athlete". Perhaps gin and airport security are making me cranky.

    If you don't want to google it, Comrade Ogilvy was the entirely fictitious replacement for another Comrade, who was unpersoned, in 1984.

    Perhaps I should have a victory gin with cloves.

    A Domino's delivery car just drove by my house. Jesus, who hates themselves that much ? There are two really good indie pizza places within a mile of here, stop buying that solidified bile.

    The good local places in my neighborhood don't deliver, unfortunately. So I'm always faced with the choice of getting up and driving to pick up my pizza, or being lazy and ordering Domino's/Papa John's.

    I have a Dominos at the other end of my block, so it's really easy to do the carry out deals sometimes. Pizza Hut makes me feel nauseous whenever I have it and I've never had Little Ceasars or Papa Johns.

    What's the best one of the express pizza places?

    Papa's John's is about equal with Domino's, and both are better than Pizza Hut, which is way better than Little Ceasar's.

    For delivery, we usually do Hungry Howies. For dine in or pick up, either HH again or Mellow Mushroom. MM's a chain but holy fuck if their pizza doesn't make me want to touch myself.

    That is the only way I'd do Domino's. They have a dirt cheap carry out special. Anything else is not worth it and they're probably the best chain. At least their dough isn't frozen. Papa Johns is the worst product in the world. Soggy wallpaper paste; every bite is gummy. The garlic butter dipping sauce made that jackoff a billionaire. I swear that is the only reason people go there. Pizza Hut is paying for chronic ass piss. That isn't even hyperbole. You eat there, your asshole will prolapse in a violent stream of bloody tears and grease.

    I worked at a Domino's in college. Every location has a mean mother of a convection oven. Thing is capable of 800F temperatures. Corporate policy is to keep it around 450F. Well, this leaves the pizza undercooked, soggy. The owner's husband and I cranked that sucker up to 700 one slow day, to see what happened. The pizza which came out was cooked all the way through, the cheese browned perfectly, and a crispy, almost burned crust like a professional joint. If it wasn't for the terrible sauce and frozen toppings, we would have had a damn fine product. No customers complained, hell, business went up a bit. Corporate came in for an inspection and docked us massive points for the oven temp. Making a proper pizza was "presenting an inconsistent product and an unfair to other franchises." Please note, the changes the company recently made are what we did out of boredom one afternoon. It took them almost 10 years to get their shit together.

    How is it that there is even a decision to be made between those two? I ate Hungry Howie's in college because there was nothing better on my budget. Mellow Mushroom is a Rolls Royce.

    Pizza Hut is disgusting and Little Caesars pizza is gross too, but they have Crazy Bread. I could just eat that and be happy.
