Lebron is possibly the greatest player of all time.  We’d love to have him in the Bay.  

If this is how they thank Korea, imagine if Korea lost to Germany, eliminating Mexico. 

If Mexico won, Korea would have advanced by winning 2-0.  

Do some math.  If Mexico won, Korea would have advanced with their scoreline.  This isn’t hard.  

Two steps forward, three steps back due to other countries’ affairs we have no control over. Korean History 101.

Oh come on.  Put away the tissues and go out and get some Korean BBQ and drink some soju tonight in honor of the team that saved yours.  

Mexico is lucky to advance because they dug themselves in a hole they couldn’t get out of without a long ass rope from Korea.  Luckily for Mexico, Korea happened to one wrapped around Germany’s neck.  

Nope.  Korea saved Mexico.  

For my money, I would rather Korea go out like this—taking down a giant and eliminating the defending champions--than to lose in the next round. Today was glorious. So proud of my boys.

Ricardo Reyes says hello:

NBA, take note.  

You’ve seen Kane get wrestled down and hog-tied in the box, right?  Everyone saw.  

Sideshows are a Bay Area thing.  Apparently, like Warrior fandom, sideshows have been adopted down south.  

You know.  

I have no idea how I became a Tottenham fan, and I definitely didn’t have any idea about the Jewish connection until after my fandom was established, and though I condemn the actions of Israel, fuck all that hissing and anti-semitic bullshit directed at the club and at Jews. Fuck all them motherfuckers.

I am honestly not being facetious—do Jews in America feel threatened by Trump? My perception is that Trump has favored Israel and Jews in the US. I’m often wrong, so I will take no offense to you telling me how wrong I am.

Shout out to Tiny Toons.

I never knew this about Houston until Bourdain’s tribute to the city. It totally changed my perception of Houston. One of the so many reasons why I’ll miss that man.

I grew up in Daly City, CA (those who know, know) and I’ve had more lechon than any man has any right to, and I will put that pig up with the best the world has to offer. Filipinos know what’s up. Now pass the Henn and let me bum a Newport.
