Here's the real lesson for Americans to learn from Deflate-gate

Deflate-gate, steroids in MLB, Lance Armstrong, and the housing bubble of the early 2000s are all object lessons for ALL Americans to learn one simple truth: Uber-competitive people are going to cheat to win. Plain and simple.

AND THAT'S WHY WE NEED STRONG REGULATIONS IN PLACE TO ENSURE THAT THEY DON'T.

And, if they get around the regulations and we catch them later, like Armstrong, we strip them of their "wins".

We are not going to get the progressive change that we want until White Working class Americans....

get over their racist instincts. Elizabeth Warren or Bernie Sanders could win the presidency in a landslide and very little substantively will change. They would be met with an obstinate federal legislature who would get elected by pandering to racial fears.

Um yeah, this won't go well. Not well at all.

Isiah Thomas is returning to New York basketball, despite a checkered reign with the Knicks that ended ignominiously in the aftermath of a 2007 sexual harassment scandal.

Thomas has become president and part owner of the New York Liberty of the WNBA, the team announced Tuesday.
