...Thank you for publishing a fair perspective on the Armenian genocide and Turkey's denial. We invade countries in response to feeble threats but fold and quiver in our boots in the face of ultimatums from so-called allies. The genocide did not put our troops in harm's way; our President did. And whoever thinks Turkey can give up billions of dollars in trade and investment with the U.S. is foolish.

...uses up its laborers and then leaves them unprotected in the pocket. A Congressional hearing this past June revealed a pattern of conduct by the league that denies retirees the money to which their injuries entitle them. The game rakes in $7 billion per year and causes more bodily harm than any other. And yet fewer than 3 percent of applicable veterans—men plagued by brain trauma, dementia, and paralysis—succeed in obtaining disability benefits. But surely the retirees can pay medical expenses with the money they made as players right? Unfortunately, no. The violent nature...
