Video Game ‘Hood Warfare 2’ Is Anti-Black “Poornography”

Last week, anonymous game developer Trapstar Games released Hood Warfare 2, one of the most racist games I’ve ever seen.

I appreciate Jake Bauers talking about how the need for health insurance affected his career choices. [The Fox Sports guys all laugh again.] But the story is a lot less funny for most Americans who must work in less sexy jobs than pro sports because it’s their only pathway to having insurance.

I cannot wait until the owners lock out the players because they cannot compete with the Milwaukee Brewers.

Verducci was telling the story that Bauers was going to quit a couple years ago, but his wife was pregnant so they needed baseball's health insurance. The longer story is here: www.jsonline.com/story/sports...

Jake Bauers was ‘dead set’ on retiring. The Brewers are glad he didn’t.

Jake Bauers was 'dead set' on calling it a career after 2024, but an unexpected reason kept him in the game.

Yes, Tom Verducci, the Bauers health insurance story is an example of what a goddamned nightmare the American economy is in no small part due to your employer.

Watching the Brewers outfield this October makes one appreciate the Brenton Doyle trade even more. A great defensive outfield is valuable.

A Sun-Times archi-scoop today. The park district originally (and rightfully) told the MSI the planned North Portico addition was too big and too incompatible -- then later ok'd the project after getting support letters for it from Landmarks Illinois and the state historic preservation office.

mass email from me when i transitioned. the body of the email reads-
"about 15 years ago i sent out a mass email stating that i had used the Troy Aikman quarterback rating system to decide that the right choice was to switch email providers from Aol to Comcast. using the same system i'm pleased to announce that the Troy Aikman quarterback ratings system has given me the clarity to go ahead and switch genders.
i'm available to anyone by phone that would like to crunch the numbers. thanks eveyrbody and sorry for the mass email! and thanks Troy Aikman!"
