So much respect for the Grizzlies.

Absolute definition of a moral victory.

I can’t wait for 12 years from: all the articles about Tatum will be, “Can you believe he’s already playing this well… even though he’s only 37?!”

Angry birds.

A million stupid flash games out there- why this one?

The guy who coined the term “military industrial complex” used it in a speech warning of its danger. Like you, he wasn’t a fan of it. That guy was Ike and he could recognize the danger of a warmongering profit machine without losing the ability to honor soldiers that have served, and at times lost their lives, for their country.

War is always evil, and the war industry always makes a profit from it, but the people that serve aren’t always to be condemned. They don’t need to disappear down a memory hole. It’s possible to keep in mind those that have served, one day a year, without glorifying the concept war-mongering.

Some of these guys had their NBA career’s messed up to get drafted into Nam. I’m not celebrating the machine that did that

You’re not asked to celebrate a meat-grinding war machine, nor a culture of worshipping war.

You’re offered an opportunity to take note of those players affected by serving in the military, and if you think some war was unjust, and the players that served unjustly and forcibly conscripted, it’s no less reasonable to keep the memories of these players in mind.
