There are many, many, MANY arguments against hosting the Olympics, as there are for (You can ask the citizens of Rio the city despite all of this has improved dramatically), but this incredibly shortsighted and stupid. What are they going to turn the stadium in Manaus into a swimming center? You realize that 12…

No they do. The Red Bulls are just too dumb to take advantage.

Actually, MLS did not want Toronto to end up with Jozy Altidore. The league was very in favor of the Red Bulls landing Altidore (bigger market, former Red Bulls player), but that would require them moving up in the allocation order. RBNY was prepared to do that, but Toronto's GM was reportedly seeking 7.5 million…

I played Edward LokoHands once with the old stuff. It was around 8pm. The next thing I knew it was 8 am the next morning and my stepdad said he found me passed out on the toilet at 4 am. Never again.

I got an IOC credential at the Asian Games in Incheon two weeks ago when I was there and it was the greatest thing to ever happen to me. I can go into more about that if people want to hear what its like to be a VIP at one of these large Games when you're just trying to be a journalist.

THIS IS. EMBARRASSING!

Anyone here mention Caleb Stanko? The captain for the U-20 team that played at the World Cup signed a professional deal with Freiburg. He won't be playing in the Regionaliga anymore. Will be 24 in 2018, he's a name to watch out for. Especially playing under Christian Streich who is a master a developing youth talent.

71 was the super optimistic estimate, with 70 being more reasonable. I had heard 68.5 in the middle of the season, and since the new Canadian TV deal didn't kick in then, it made sense. 69 million was in line with the lower estimates of the 2014-15 salary cap.

Basically all I have to say in response to this was when Derek Stepan used his finger tips to push the puck under Henrik Lundqvist I was jumping up and down like a maniac yelling "ITS NOT A PENALTY SHOT ITS NOT A PENALTY SHOT HE USED HIS FINGERS AND DIDNT COVER THE PUCK ITS NOT A PENALTY SHOT."

The 1985 Lakers that beat the Boston Celtics had Magic, Kareem, James Worthy, and Jamaal Wilkes who are four hall of famers and that's just off the top of my head. So sure. They didn't...

I know this is a small nitpick, but Roman Burki was signed by Freiburg and is no longer with Zurich Grasshoppers. So Freiburg have 3 of the Swiss national team. (Big SCF fan here sorry)

ENGLAND WILL BE PLAYING A 4-4-2

As the Rangers have become a team that pinches on defense, you have to accept that you're going to live with this one and hope you can take 4 out of 6. It was a mistake, but I'm never going to fault McDonagh for being in position, and then seeing that Pouliot was prepared to cleanly take the pass that he can pinch. If…

It would have been better if you used "God's Gonna Cut You Down"

It's fitting you label fireball whiskey "What the fuck?" because that's usually what I say after my friends tell me I did last night after drinking fireball.

I think you should put as much effort into voting into the hall of fame as the standards for being in the hall of fame. The fact that writers think it should be "easy" is ridiculous.

I volunteer work at the 2012 World Juniors and the Russian team is just the best. Their media officer would just sit in the press box with Russian reporters even though they didn't have seats there (most media didn't show up until the medal round) and would fight us when we tried to kick him out. It was so sad Russia…

I was at my parents house. I was still hungover and falling asleep on the couch. I had just spent the entire meal trying to get drunk again while my mom, dad, and stepdad were debating Israel-Palestine. I'm from a jewish household and my parents divorced when I was 3, and after many acrimonious years they've…

So do I get a free audiobook for doing crack?

I get the call on the first foul, but most NBA players have gotten continuation on flimsier stuff than is shown here. You could argue that the first foul came as Melo was planting his foot and going up, which in my mind would warrant a continuation call.
