If the finals were best three out of five, you would have been the best team in the league. Your team is not the best team in the league.

“In sport”? As an American who lives in Continental Europe, I’d have let this slide any other day, but, goddamn, it’s the Fourth of July and it’s not one of the dozens of holidays I have off here in Spain: it’s not “sport” if you’re on a ‘Murican site. It’s “sports”. And the thing you left off the end of your sentence…

Yeah, he must work out.

You conspicuously left out “domestic terrorism”. Monster!

No, that was General Mills, who was actually a corporal.

I was at the US Embassy in Madrid's 4th of July party this weekend (long story) and Vanessa Williams sang the national anthem. It was the perfect example of it being about the song and not the person. My brother-in-law didn't know who she was, so I told him she was a famous pornstar and showed him her Penthouse…

Thank your dad for his service on my behalf!

I've written it elsewhere twice, but here goes. I was 11 and moved to Utah. My parents were (are) Lutheran. We moved into a rental house and all the neighborhood kids were awesome. It was summer and we spent all day together doing what the kids of summer do. First two weeks made my terribly sad move from all that I…

I’m disgusted by pageants; however, am I missing some bylaw where these meat markets featuring locust-looking makeup-caking women was set to be an issue of character? I’m not saying there isn’t- I’m just saying I doubt that even if, arguendo, there is some language about character, that this might ever have a nexus to…

This. It’s terrible. For a people who claim to be Christian, they blank you if you’re not Mormon and happen to be, say, Catholic or Lutheran and only believe in one God and one heaven. Luckily I lived ten minutes from Snowbird and Alta and skiing 150 days a year (even if just half an hour) made up for their…

Having spent 8 years of my youth in Utah, I can attest to the fact they’re cool people if you’re not, say, of any Christian denomination. If you are, they shun you when their parents find out the 11 year old who just moved in doesn’t go to the ward on Sunday’s; he’s Lutheran so stay away!

Yeah, that dude living in his parents’ basement sure is living opulently. And he made $325 at a tournament in Tunisia. Lavish!

I work with Irish and Welsh guys who, although the English regularly disappoint, and they have swallowed their pride to accept the possibility of glory by affinity given the Irish and Welsh national teams, keep thinking these fuckers might not shit the bed every tourney... And yet, here we are....

I’m sure he’d be happy to be the Redskins’ chaplain, but Dan needs more proof of ROI.

I love English international play. I also love seeing comments like this, because it recalls a better time when ...just kidding! England! So bad. Always so bad!

“AED’s”: apostrophes (apostrophe’s?) plurals and possessives are slated for next week!

Unless Tebow interfered with those attending to the individual, or those he approached rebuffed his efforts, I don’t see how his attempts to comfort a family in distress, no matter the method, should be subject to ridicule. I don’t care if you’re Christian, Muslim, atheist or a Taureg offering tea, if I am worried…

I’m no holy roller; in fact, I grew up with holy rollers literally throwing Bibles at me and calling me a heathen who was going to hell (because I listened to the Descendents and Social Distortion). But I find it really hard to mock Tebow. He’s consistently in the spotlight and gets shit on and mocked for his beliefs,…

I appreciate that you know what “eg” means, but you shouldn’t use it in conjunction with “etc”. Or, if you want to be super superfluous, you could have said “eg...., among others,....etc.”
