Consdering the rules around players gambling are pretty simple -- no gambling on the NFL period and no gambling in the facility or at away games -- yet veterans have managed to be indefinitely suspended because they gambled on the NFL, Mr. Addison is not the only one its not sinking in. At this point anyone suspended for gambling is an idiot. You can't say you don't know the rules AND the consequences. It's not like the suspensions have been kept secret.

There's a solution here. Don't go on vacation, I mean ministering several times a year. Also I agree with everyone else, God is telling the Rodriguii to knock it off. They are not "making a joyful noise unto the Lord" and she is sick of it. .

The Hines injury is terrible. He wasn't riding his jet ski at the moment. He was stopped and someone slammed into him. It's pretty bad. Not life-threatening, but quality of life threatening.

So why did it take so long? he could have just walked down to the principal's office and said 'where's Colin?" Kate would have had to formally withdraw him from school.

Yes. His parental rights were never terminated. Which means he was still Colin's father. In my state that means you have the right to inspect medical (including mental health) and educational records. You can't make decisions about the kid if you don't have legal custody*, but you can see the records. So if there IS a problem you can petition the courts. Jon should have done more. But because he had checked out, he had no real way of verifying Kate's story. Heck, if he had even every other weekend with the kids, it would have been harder for Kate to send Colin away even with sole legal custody. Because Jon would have noticed one of the kids wasn't showing up for visitation. There's two types of custody -- physical and legal. Physical or residential is just where the kids and when they see each parent. Legal is decisionmaking about the kids, the big things not the day to day things. So medical and educational decisions would be legal. This can be hybrid, like one parent has primary residential but they have joint legal, or some combination thereof. But Kate being Kate, I am betting she had sole residential and sole legal.

Oh yeah, she would never jaysause again. I mean she is already on permanent vacation, she just wouldn't have to pretend its a "ministry" anymore. David would be so relieved he doesn't have to pretend to work anymore, or thave o preach another sermon.

Hmm, that's very telling that she talks about giving up on a marriage. I thought he was the bestest most perfect man on earth? Guess even she is disappointed on how lazy he turned out to be. Because he is stoned on hummingbird juice and just got woken from a nap to be dragged somewhere by Jill.

We don't know that Colin has conservative views and that is what Mady considers threatening. More likely his comments about his mother not being perfect upset her and she said she felt threatened and Mady ran with that. Rather than go oh hey Mom is over reacting here. As for Jon, yes, this is his fault too. He chose to give up custody in order to not pay child support. He knew what kind of person he was abandoning his kids too. I'm not suprised most of the kids don't want anything to do with him. They needed him to protect them from their mother, he failed.

Because Jill cannot conceive of her children as being individuals with their own WANTS and NEEDS. They merely exist as extensions of her. Which is textbook narcissism.

Carol was seen helping with the cooking. I imagine that cooking for that crowd took a couple people. On her days' off, Carol did it with the girls' help probably. As for asking permission, I think that particular night was not her regular day off so it was more arranging for a day off like any other employer/employee. Not so much permission as making sure it worked with the schedule.

I like the picture that was posted better that only had a couple thing in it. That's more like what the kids are used to getting. But yep, Jill reads SM and this is her response. Now she needs to actuall FEED her kids. Also, Jill if you are reading this, the kids need regular sleep too. That means bedtimes, ALL THE TIME, not just when you are trying to prove what a great mom you are.

If you are ever rich enough to own a sport team be the kind of owner that everyone does not throw a party when you sell the team.

"in residence" is an academic term. It means "at that school." The point is to keep people from transferring from other "lesser" schools in the final year just to get the "good" school's name on the diploma. Although Massillon as a prized school for a diploma is questionable. It also means attending, not distance learning. So you could get a lot of credits from distance learning but you have to take a certain number of credits ON CAMPUS.

It's official. Pop the champagne. Snyder is out. Harris is in.

But Jill has Nurie and now &Kaylee guzzling that garbage right after giving birth -- and probably while pregnant. The next generation is doomed too.

Today the owners meet to approve the sale of the Commanders. Our long national nightmare may soon be over. May Danny Boy crawl into whatever hole he came from and stay there.

She broke the boat. I would be sobbing too. After the crisis was over. Its just like Sig blowing up. It doesn't really help the situation in the moment. Speaking of which -- if they JUST had the engines overhauled, what the hell happened? Is Edgar no longer around to baby them? I know he can't be shown for reasons, but surely he is there?

I think Janessa has just figured out that the way to get Mommy's attention is to be willing to perform for the camera. That's why she is always begging for Jill to put the camera on her. At least then Jill will notice she exists. Or maybe Jill promises the kids an extra potato chip if they perform well and Janessa isn't about to miss out.

In the right circles, it could be really good. Look how big their show was. Can you imagine saying "yeah I negotiated their contracts?" In Hollywood that's gold. In fundie circles, he would be a King.

Ehh there are bad lawyers in every specialty. One might have done it just for $$$ or to be able to say the Duggars were clients.

Hubby can whistle it. Its cool. TOPIC: yes Alice was like family but still somehow the hired help. She would go to sales with Carol but then also have to go back to her little room which she probably had no control how to decorate, with her tiny little tv.

If JB wants to use Travis Story for his entertainment stuff knowing Story does not specialize in entertainment law, that's his business. He's make his decision as an adult. But to not even let the kids know they have a choice to talk to someone who know what they hell they are doing is the problem. And that includes that Michelle should have had independent counsel on behalf of the minor children.

Goodness no. My life ain't perfect but hers is EXHAUSTING. To have to be angry all the time, then all the work for her low level grifts. No thank you. At least Sofia got a cake unlike the last one who got Little Debbies.

Weren't some of the kids that Michelle signed on behalf of also adults at the time? Honestly the way it was signed could invalidate the whole thing (I think this is how Derrick won). Just grabbing people as they came by and telling them to sign is not proper procedure. Every adult had to have the opportunity to read it AND SEEK INDEPENDENT COUNSEL if they so chose. Of course non of the Duggar kidults knew an attorney to talk to other than one of JB's buddies. But an ethical attorney would tell them, I can't help you because of my relationship with your dad, here's the names of some other attorneys. The same goes with all the LLCs they sign. The kidults should have independent counsel before signing all of those and Travis Story should ONLY be acting on behalf of JB. Although I will bet they all signed conflict waivers. Which they were not allowed to have explained by independent counsel. (yes the attorney in me is screaming)

Interesting, because ComicCon is still on and actors are attending. SOme will be doing their meet and greets, which face it, the fans are only meeting them and paying for an autograph/picture with because of the actor's work.
