The Monday Morning News.
In other football news, the league has its first female official coming up through the ranks:

She is currently in the upper levels of their "training" program, and will likely call a couple preseason games. To break into a permanent position however, she will have to wait for a current official to retire or be fired.
Also, if you want to see some seriously casual misogyny, read the comments on that story.

Foie Gras Tastes Like Cat Food.
S T rides right past sgt. doom and Siddha to easily become the dark horse winner in the "craziest nutsack on Slog" race.
I mean...my god. The sheer determination to sit at a computer all weekend and post batshit and racist lies.
Kudos S T, you unbalanced psycho you.

@18: Syria buys tons of Russian arms. They want to keep that market humming. That really is all it is. Putin needs the funds to put the Soviet Union back together.

Laugh It Off.
So I was kind of wondering about this one:
Q: What is the first thing a frat bro does after he gets laid?
A: Clean the pepper spray out of his eyes.
Now, the butt of the joke is the bro who can not get laid without resorting to rape, but it is hard to overlook how the joke without pause equates "getting laid" with "rape."
So..."good" rape joke or "bad" rape joke?

The U.S. Will Send Arms to Syrian Rebels.
It should be noted that the US is currently not sending any arms to Syria. The White House simply stated that since this line has been crossed, more options are now on the table. Eli is wrong (at least at this point) when he claims that arms are, or will shortly be sent.
Don't get me wrong, I am sure we will be sending arms, but it has not happened yet, and is not a certainty.
@19: Eh, too repetitive to be that great, but the nuttery of sgt. doom has grown very stale, so it is nice to have a new insane commenter. But just like sgt. doom, Siddha will eventually grow tiresome as he repeats the same shit everyday.

The Thursday Morning News.
If anyone is looking for Walshe's article to prove her thesis that this is a gender issue, don't bother. She merely states it is a gender issue with no evidence or explanation.
#5 is right: this is not a gender issue, it is an issue of poorly written and poorly interpreted law. Because if she had shot and killed him...she probably would have been protected by the law, as batshit crazy as that sounds.
