«सर्वात जुने ‹थोडे जुने 219 पैकी 201 – 219I've heard other people say that Boston is very racist. I don't know if it is or not. I've only been there twice and both times were short business trips. What's indisputable is that it is a very liberal city. Here I thought that all those icky racists were out in red states. I'm glad SNL set me straight.
We should ask "Titus".
I understand he prefers gargling "swarthy" types.
What's the word on the street?

A few thoughts:
"...I've ever been to" implies that Michael Che admits a belief based on limited personal experience in Boston.
That when Michael Che or anyone else uses a position on national television to posit his perception of the "racist" quotient of any city, however subjective and idiosyncratic, it's egregiously divisive to then project that personal perception into an ugly racial rivalry between major US cities and inject that to the Superbowl.
It is near nigh impossible to get me to care about who wins the Super Bowl any longer. Progressives did manage to create that miracle- Go Patriots!
I swear to God, I shall die of schadenfreude poisoning before Trump's second term ends.
Henry asked why Althouse draws so many from the right side of the political divide?
The explanation is fairly easy- she pulls no punches for the most part. I know from her writing that she leans left, but she almost never tolerates bullshit from either side- so there is something here for people from both sides to both agree with and disagree with. However, the main reason the commentators here lean right more than left is simply this- she doesn't delete their comments for simply disagreeing with her- a very rare thing for bloggers who are to the left.
Since I won't generally even read a blogger who practices such censorship, I noticed about a year ago that I was suddenly down to just Althouse who could be identified as a liberal, and who had a comments section. I have lost some bloggers on the right, too, who do this, but no where near the percentage. My theory is simply that liberals and progressives are just less tolerant of differing opinions, and the commenters from the left are less likely to frequent a comments section where they might encounter an actual opponent.
And you know what- I think her commenters have probably had an effect on Ms. Althouse- she definitely has drifted to the center in the last 4 years.
Of course, we could all just be commenters paid by Putin.
Ah, Meade, another sad Bengals fan. You should do like I did and go into rehab- you will come out not caring about football.
Yancy, you drove me to dispair at the "pussygrabben" episode, but hot damn, we pulled it out.
VW could make an ad using this.
Fuck Fahrvergnügen,
Nichtberühren.
Yancy, your post at 1:36 expresses my thoughts too.
YancEy, YancEy.
sigh.
Don't worry about it, Jon, almost no one spells it right.
And, yes, that night was the low point for me, too. For about 24 hours, I thought Trump was toast.
Heh, No-one spells 'Jon' right either.
Remember this?

The Year of the Rooster 幸福的新的一年
I didn't have a rooting interest in the game and I didn't have any money riding on it. I'm not a fan of the Patriots and their sometimes sketchy tactics, but I'm not a fan of NFL Commissioner Goodell either. My initial inclination was to cheer for the Falcons, figuring that if they won, that would be good, but that if the Patriots won and Goodell had to hand the trophy to the Patriots, that would be good, too. Win-win!
But as the Patriots fell farther and farther behind, and the announcers kept reiterating that no team had ever come back from a deficit of more than 10 points in the Super Bowl, I got bored and started to want to see a comeback. 25 points is a huge deficit; it's really, really improbable to come back from that far down. And I started to cheer for the Patriots and Brady to pull it off.
Well, we know what happened: The greatest comeback in the history of the Super Bowl and, given the magnitude of the game, probably the greatest comeback in NFL history. And we just saw it; it's a great time to be alive. And it's been especially gratifying to watch the reaction of the Trump-haters to the fact that the team that he was supporting won the game. Yes, the Patriots Made the Super Bowl Great Again. And the trophy presentation? Schadenfreudelicious!
"I shall die of schadenfreude poisoning before Trump's second term ends."
It might be an epidemic by then.
" And it's been especially gratifying to watch the reaction of the Trump-haters to the fact that the team that he was supporting won the game. Yes, the Patriots Made the Super Bowl Great Again."
The best part is that the left is anti-football with all the faux concern about head injuries and boys being too masculine.

Roughcoat,
Thanks. I'll check that out.
“I just want to relax, turn my brain off, and watch the blackest city in America beat the most racist city I’ve ever been to.”
Suck it, race-baiting Patriot haters- LMAO@ you. Even the black New England RB who scored 3 TD's was named White...
