Let’s at least grant Brazil this: the Swiss are born and raised to achieve a neutral result.

In Italy, for 30 years under the Borgias, they had warfare, terror, murder and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland they had brotherly love, they had 500 years of democracy and peace - and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock.

All part of the secret plan to help the US get by Iran in Group play!

Don’t touch them unless you’re going to hoist them.

You’ve just described every episode of Takeshi’s Castle, the greatest show to ever grace planet Earth. (You may know it as “Most Extreme Elimination Challenge.”)

He was elected to lead, not to read!

I agree it’s got downsides but so does appointing judges for life and making them unaccountable to anyone or anything.

Probably in the minority here, but I think it’s fair for an athlete not to want to take part in someone else’s political speech - not wearing the jersey isn’t that different than not wanting to stand for the anthem.

This is the stupidest comment I think I have read on this site, plenty of Asian food, Thai included, has wonderful flavor that doesn’t have to be spicy. Perhaps you would find a better home over at r/gatekeeping.

I have a hybrid loaner from the dealer right now, and while it’s hard for me to imagine people just stepping out of the car that is still obviously “on” even though there is no engine running, people have done stupider things.

Also…

Yeah, an often-ignored but major part of the reason this is happening is the way the NFL’s salary floor calculates. It’s a soft salary floor where spend is calculated over a 4 year period and not a yearly basis, so teams can hoard money early on in that period, and only have to meet cash spend levels in total by the…

What if she wasn’t really pregnant and the ball was full of cash and happiness?

If he was any good at stopping things before they bust we wouldn’t be here, would we?

Wow, Hillary Clinton is looking pretty rough these days...

Great shot, but he should be forced to wear it around his neck now.

My only claim to fame in my golf career is an albatross. I was playing a round with a college friend on a hot summer afternoon and drinking a couple beers. Up to that point in my life, I had never drank while playing golf because I played competitively and had only recently turned 21. So we get up to hole 13, which is…
