I definitely think Timmy needs a break from starting, but at the same time he is still a former Cy Young award winner, on high payroll, so it is a risk. I think Gaudin in the rotation would be OK for a while, but eventually we would need to go to one of our younger, work-in-progress arms (which is why the Zack Wheeler trade looks silly now). Timmy in the bullpen makes sense, as he had success there during the 2012 playoffs. But as a closer? Sketch

Even though fantasy sports are legal for all ages, they're being categorized as gambling. Do you think they are just fun and games, or a precursor for real gambling problems?

The only way this is ethical is if they catch a large number of pedophiles. If they kept the site available and running with child porn everywhere for 2 weeks without catching anyone, then obviously they made the wrong decision. But if they were successful in catching a relevant amount of weirdos then yes, I think that what the FBI did was ethical and in fact quite resourceful.

I think the issue speaks for itself. As one of the last organizations to allow gay members (made official in the vote on May 23), there was a lot of pressure on them to overturn the ban on gay scouts. However, they still do not permit gay scout leaders from commanding troops. Is this a step in the right direction for gay rights activists? or just a smack in the face to continue to allow discrimination against volunteer leaders

This post is solely about the Onion and other comical sources of news. The onion is probably a bad example because of their incorrect use of facts/entirely fabricated stories. That said, I am simply asking whether comedic journalism, when used correctly, is more or less effective to get the point across for the majority of readers?
