Goin' Deep


I only wish we could take Sagan's poetry and put it together with DeGrasse's showmanship.

But then again, this one's pretty great. Always been one of my faves.

Trevor Brings It

It's wrong to do it in the streets
It's wrong to do it in the Tweets
You cannot do it on the field
You cannot do it if you kneel
And you don't do it if you're rich
You ungrateful son of a bitch
Because there's one thing that's a fact
You cannot protest if you're black

New On Comedy Central

This is kind of a variation on Colbert - on steroids - but I'm hoping they let Jordan Klepper get his feet under him and find his audience.

If they can keep it moving and not get too hung up in simple mockery, they might be making something pretty special. Fake Jesus knows they're not likely to run out of raw material any time soon.

Not Just Another Dumb Jock

Gregg Popovich struggles at times to find the words, but if this is at all representative of how people in positions of influence are thinking, then we're doing better than I thought.


And Steve Kerr talks about the Warriors taking a pass on their White House visit - making a very solid statement on values:


BTW - nobody is protesting the national anthem, and nobody is protesting the flag.

BTW2 - stop telling me 45* has accomplished something positive. You might as well say it was a good thing those 300 passengers were killed in just about the most gruesome way imaginable because we got all these great new data points on how to improve airline safety.

A little impluse control goes a long way. Which is why 45* will never stop punching down instead of lifting up.

Today's Quote


Let me get this straight, America. You terrorize and enslave an entire race for over 300 years; ban them from your privileges for the next 100 years; fill two-thirds of your prison cells with them until today - and you're angry with them when they don't applaud your history.

PoliticusUSA:

Opinion of the Republican Party is at its lowest point since CNN began poling the question in 1992.

While nearly 6 in 10 Americans are mad at both parties, opinion of the Republican Party has hit an all-time low according to a new CNN poll.

While 41% approve of the Democratic Party and 51% disapprove, only 29% approve of the Republican Party while 62% disapprove.

Sometimes I wonder if the government is being run by smart folks who are putting us on, or total idiots who aren't.
