Very frequently someone who was upset at how the game was doing would yell out "DEUCES WILD!" to change the rules.

The Week in Media Bias History: Real Threat Is ‘Radical Christianity’
Rosie O’Donnell is a radical leftist and 9/11 truther conspiracy nut. But for some reason, ABC TWICE made her a co-host of The View. We just observed the 17th anniversary of 9/11 and it’s important to remember this quote from O’Donnell on September 12, 2006: “Radical Christianity is just as threatening as radical Islam in a country like America.” On September 10, 2006, the late Andy Rooney, then…

The Undefeated: Cartoonist Reduces Serena to 'Enraged Behemoth'
Mark Knight is a veteran cartoonist for the Melbourne, Australia Herald Sun who's made a career of portraying his subjects in caricature.

The latest piece includes a second passel of accusers against CBS CEO Les Moonves, who seemed to have survived a first salvo in July.

Alt-Left Insanity: Cuppa Gender Fluid at the Trans Coffee Shop?
