Very true, this is much more egregious by any measure.

I recall a certain media group publishing something very similar last year. I think you'll find a much warmer reception this time around.

Hypothetically, if it gets to, say, 2020 and the World Cup is still set to be played in Brazil Qatar, will countries boycott? Would someone like the US Soccer Federation say "We're not playing in 122 degree heat" and just walk away? Or if the scheduled it in November would the English FA say "We're not pulling our…

From SGU's athletics page. This is exactly what Jeff Potter looked like in my head.

IS NO ONE ELSE CONCERNED THAT LEBRON CAN CONSUME A MOUTHPIECE WITHOUT EVEN CHEWING?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

I just got back from this game and I have to say, I was stunned by how little reaction this move got. I think of Manny's inexplicable cutoff as one of the truly memorable Sox plays of the 21st century, yet when Damon "dove" through the first pitch, everyone in my section just looked confused. I don't know what to make…

No question, this doesn't fall into the "don't steal in a 12-1 game in the 8th" category. This is a case of a team being frustrated/bitter that they haven't won a game in 2 weeks.

Nice, Beckerman is going. Now we can feel confident that the 2014 team will have the 2010 "Ricardo Clark moment" at some point.

Curious, Barry, when you talked to Mr. Sennett, did you try and reach out to Derrick as well?

It would be prudent to note somewhere in the article that Durant missed the 2nd free throw. If that's edited, please don't keep my post up for 900 people to say "it's right in the article asshole." Please and thanks.

This series is going to be awesome.

I absolutely agree, it doesn't. And if it's true that they did raise money for a good cause, then I'm okay with it. That said, there were a lot of people who said on April 15th or 19th or somewhere thereabouts last year that they were absolutely going to run it this year. If these cats were among them, they should…

Thanks! It was my first and probably only marathon. I did my fundraising for Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, where a couple of friends have been treated in recent years.

Right, plus bearing in mind that several hundred people didn't finish, there would be leftover medals anyway.

But who would fine them? The BAA has no authority to do that, and I'm guessing the state wouldn't bother with it.

This annoys me for sure. I paid the$550 to the BAA, another chunk of change to the charity I was running for, and then had to raise several thousand dollars for said charity in order to run. So yeah, it's a little unfair to the other runners who got their bibs justly. On the other side of the coin, what is the end…

You'd need to pay me a hefty sum to put my hands near that mop...
