Carmelo Anthony explains why a $100,000,000 contract doesn’t make professional athletes rich for life “$100 million… let’s not get that twisted.” “It’s not really $100 million.” “You’re taking 50% to 60% off the top.” “So that $10 million becomes $5 million.” “Then you’ve got taxes in every state you play in.” “You’ve got a house.” “You’re taking care of your mom.” “You’ve got a 4% agent fee.” “You’re not working with $10 million anymore, you’re working with $5 million.” “That drastic lifestyle change is what messes a lot of athletes up mentally.” “You’ve got to budget how you pay your mortgage.” “You’ve got to budget your food.” “$100 million is not $100 million.” “You’re not even seeing 50% of that money.”

Blue button people: "We're morally superior to you" Red button people: "That's great, but you're also dead."

Can a European explain how seeding works over there? Women's semi-finals: 4-0 vs 4-0. 3-1 vs...0-3?!?

In today's Olympic Women's Hockey quarterfinals, 1-3 Finland is against 0-3 Switzerland. Make it make sense.

Anyone else's stream suddenly flooded with Bitcoin bulls?

1. Government steps in to "help" make some sector affordable (health, retirement, housing, education) 2. That sector gets WAY more expensive. 3. Normal people can no longer afford it. 4. Forced into government plan. 5. Government promotes its "popularity"

Why Socialism will not work: The idea that everyone will buy in to the "common good" if left to their own devices falls short in reality.

Checked current weather at 3 websites. Wunderground: 87. Feels like 92. MSN: 86. Feels like 97. Yahoo: 87. Feels like 102. Same location. Same time. 10 degree range in "Feels like". Stuff like this only fuels suspicion of climate doomsday predictions.

If the WNBA players are arguing for "equal pay", why do all the WNBA players have different salaries within their own league?

Gotta admit I didn't have "Sydney Sweeney triggers a race war" on this week's bingo card.

This answer is yes. Everyone should be able to answer yes.

Just one man's opinion

Sure, the markets are down 20% but y'all completely forgot about egg prices for a while, didn't you.

When did we start treating Europe's opinion of us with the awe and deference usually reserved for the cool kids in junior high?

And just like that, no one's speaking about Gaza anymore.

We don't have a right to negotiate peace between Ukraine and Russia. We have a right to set conditions of whether WE continue to support one side.

Robert E. Lee wasn't a traitor in the traditional sense. He was a Virginian first and an American second. When the two were no longer on the same team he had to pick. It would be like a Texas Longhorn fan staying with Texas after moving from Big 12 to SEC.

The people complaining about spending $10 for a dozen eggs baffle me. Why are you shopping at the highest priced stores for the most expensive type and brand of eggs if you're so worried about 10 bucks?
