    Sports What Ifs.

    His lung injury was a product of the very particular way which he was hit by Mo Lewis. If he had been hit differently, he wouldn’t have been injured as severely, and wouldn’t have been out for the season- if at all. If Bledsoe was ever out, Brady still would’ve gotten playing time, but Bledsoe...

    The Patriots were playing the Jets during the game Bledsoe was injured.

    Sports What Ifs.

    A classic one is without 9/11, the 2001-2002 NFL week 2 games are still played on schedule, Patriots starting QB Drew Bledsoe isn't injured, and Tom Brady doesn't become the phenomenon we know and loathe.

    Blue Skies in Camelot (Continued): An Alternate 80s and Beyond

    No. I have a better idea. JFK Jr. as Batman.

    Blue Skies in Camelot (Continued): An Alternate 80s and Beyond

    It's tough to imagine anyone other than Alec Baldwin in the role, but JFK Jr. could be hilarious as Jack Donaghy in 30 Rock.

    WI: Internet Culture without TikTok?

    There's only a marginal difference. The meme culture presently found on TikTok would exist elsewhere. Super short-form internet video content was already popular in the form of Vine, and shitpost culture existed on YouTube, Twitter, Instagram, and iFunny. They'd eventually converge when a new...

    Excellent timeline. Loved following it all the way through, it was a wonderful distraction in between classes.

    Is it possible for Edwin Edwards to have a career in national politics?

    If you're talking about What It Took, he served two terms and then resigned

    TLIAW: Camelot Lost

    My god this was beautiful. I was sure that "1977-1981" meant that Gilligan's eccentricities got the best of him and he lost; I spent the bulk of this entry waiting for the shoe to fall and wondering what he'd do to piss away all that good will. But as his achievements got more Herculean, it...

    Could there have been a rebirth of the Massachusetts GOP in the 1990s had Romney won in 1994 and Weld in 1996?

    You would need a substantial shift in the national GOP's platform for the state to be competitive. Romney and Weld would've been moderate-leaning staunch fiscal conservatives in the 1990s, but if/when a social conservative like Bush II is elected in the 2000s (and even a McCain type would have...
