    Gay marriage in Utah put on hold

    So what? Sexual relations is not a prerequisite for marriage. Can you show evidence that married couples have more sex than non-married? In fact, I bet the opposite is true. So maybe it's in society's best interest to allow sibling marriage?

    Gay marriage in Utah put on hold

    I'm confused. Siblings don't need a marriage license to procreate. So what does marriage have to do with it?

    Please don't sneeze - you may get me in trouble.

    Did anybody actually read the article? She got in trouble for talking during quiet time. What she said wasn't the issue.

    Looking for genuine discourse re: Donald Sterling/NBA

    His wife is selling the team without his consent. The family trust has deemed him mentally incapacitated and with that, Sterling is cut out of any decision making role.

    It's just so he can control who the team is sold to. In other words, he makes sure Magic doesn't get it.

    Stockton does not have a net worth of $600M. Most reports say it's around $45M. Not sure where you come up with that number? Perhaps somebody added a zero to his $66M in salary he earned in the NBA? Richard Jefferson does not have an MBA.

    2014 NBA Playoffs: 1st Round

    Anybody notice that when Lin got fouled in the face by Aldridge and dropped to the floor that his entire team ignored him? Team is selfish and don't stand a chance of winning this series.

    Just played the ESPN lottery 5 times.

    Winning the tie-breaker greatly increases our odds of landing Randle, Embiid or Exum. No effect on Parker or Wiggins and greatly reduces the odds of us drafting Smart.

    It is the most common outcome, is it not? Which is different than saying it is likely.

    Should We Reward Good Students?

    Talk about demotivizing... Geez. Yep, let's teach our kids that whatever you do, it doesn't matter. The system is stacked against you. Why try at all?

    The results of loosening gun restrictions

    Murders rates are down in 3 of the 5 years since 2007 (using 2007 as the base). I guess the bad guys legally obtained guns in 2007 when they may not have been able to otherwise, shot up their enemies, then put the guns away.

    Anyone with kids at Unitah Elementary?

    Yeah it sucks that the kids had their food taken away and the school should have handled it differently, but this is far from an emotionally damaging situation. Geez, the hyperbole over this is amazing. If it was my kid, I'd apologize and make sure he has money in his account going forward...
