Massen as in ‘Mason’, or Massen as in ‘Assen’?

It was a slow breaking ball. It’s not like he was throwing gaus, man.

Ustinov in Evil Under the Sun! Perfection.

It’s Spicer…

An Everest permit isn’t $40k. That $40-60k is for a guided experience and all the accouterments. You’re likely looking at $10-12k for the permit. But a professional climber makes their money guiding and through sponsorships. You’re looking at a handful of guys who can probably do it solely through sponsors.

The white backlash to having a black man running the country the past 8 years was all but inevitable to be honest.

You left out the other option: come from money. There’s a reason it’s thought of as a sport for the affluent and rich.

Your question got me curious too, so I started digging. There are a very very very small number of them that earn enough through sponsorships to just climb, and they tend to be the type of people that just live on the road out of a camper/van and do nothing but climb and buy local produce for sandwiches (i.e. Alex…

Yeah but Sam Bradford is throwing the stones. No need to worry.

If you’re so firmly conservative that your mind goes immediately to “ESPN’s liberal agenda is killing them!”, you are likely a strong supporter of Fox News. If you have Fox News, you have cable. And if you have cable...you’re paying ESPN like $80 a year even if you never touch the channel.

“We wanted to highlight not only the Rocky steps, but the Museum—real staples of this city to show this event is Philadelphia and part of Philadelphia. So we replicated the front of the museum as part of our stage.”

Whenever I drive/am driven/ride the train past the art museum, I like to imagine it’s actually the Palace of the King of Philadelphia. Furthermore, when I’m at the museum, I pretend that I am said king, roaming my spacious halls and inspecting my art collection, enjoying the echo of my footsteps.

“Oh you mean the guy that helps the wide receiver get the ball, the guy who nefariously doesn’t let the guy throw the ball to the wide receiver, and the dastardly guy that takes the ball from the innocent wide receiver?” - Matt Millen

The Browns would hire him, but since he’s never suffered head-trauma or displayed hilariously poor judgment he’s just too over-qualified.

Off-topic— did anybody’s ads and articles just switch sides of the screen? It’s surprisingly disturbing. Am I in an alternate universe all of a sudden?

Wilmington exists to make people long for Philadelphia.
