That’s pretty much how he is. Bigger, stronger and faster than most players but zero skills on the ball...which sums up a lot of our discussion about American soccer growing. We know we have great athletes but other countries have the fundamentals of the game - and crazy skills - down so much more than we do.

Except no. Trump is saying a judge is unable to be impartial because of his race, which the judge has/had zero control over and is a protected class in essentially every discrimination law on the books.

Not nearly as often as the NBA, at least recently. The NHL has handed out the President’s Trophy to the team with the best regular season record since the 1985-86 season, and since that point only 8 of its 30 winners have won a Stanley Cup, and just two since 2002. For some perspective, 6 President’s Trophy winners…

It’s called Team Stream, and something they have done in the championship game (and I think both Final Four games as well) for at least three years now. The main network (TBS) had their normal commentary. On TNT, you had UNC themed commentary, and meanwhile on Tru TV, there was the exact same “bias on a national…

I, for one, welcome our old FBI overlords!

As a San Jose native, I’m used to my hometown and the surrounding region constantly trying to mooch off of San Francisco’s events and coolness...this is probably the first time I’ve seen SF blatantly shill for another city’s stuff. It’s both amusing and confusing.

As someone who works walking distance from Levi’s Stadium...your Mom isn’t wrong. I mean, on a larger scale, that’s also why many of the stadiums in California (Candlestick until the Niners managed to snag Levi’s, the Oakland Coliseum, Oracle Arena, Qualcomm Stadium) are really old: it takes a Herculean effort to get…

Fair warning, wall of text coming here...

Agreed that it’s a joke, but with any kind of “Best Game Ever” poll, are there really more than like five “acceptable” answers that won’t piss off the people who are inclined to care about something like this? We’ve seen ALL of these before, just look at the bracket. Nothing you couldn’t expect from any kind of mass…

I almost stopped reading and assumed it was satire at “He is the best Laker of all time”.

No problem and thanks! And as for leaving questions, yeah probably due to shit like Alex’s side comments and pronunciation. He does the exact same thing live and if he screws up they just re-record his voice and edit that over the flubbed lines. The “meet the contestants” portion is a long-entrenched tradition, that’s…

As someone who’s both a sports nut and former Jeopardy contestant - and I actually won my game on a rare sports-based final Jeopardy question, so it really did come in handy - a brief defense on that situation.

Rodgers also won a Super Bowl in his 3rd season as a starter, as opposed to Peyton in his 9th.

Very true...it’s often forgotten due to, well all of the other stuff - and also that Y.E. Yang has won jack shit since then - but if anything that was the beginning of the end. If you want to go Psych 101 on Tiger there, you can speculate that he might’ve gotten sloppy and inadvertently allowed for his wife to find…

Haha I didn’t actually mean in an understanding sense, most just a timing one. Scoring is already somewhat limited in soccer - hockey too, which has similar “issues” ingratiating itself in America - and if you miss the only goal because you left the room for five minutes, it’s going to grate.

Right, you’re not angry, you’re just telling me to “play the fucking game” and talking about shoving dicks in mouths. Clearly that’s how calm, reasonable people have a discussion.

This is very true, but there’s a wealth of that kind of interesting data in older games that you could just stumble into now and, as you mention, you pretty much can’t anymore. The Citadel in Goldeneye is another example, or the All Bonds outfits. It took over a decade to find those, and IIRC it was eventually through…

You know, people say “cheating” like there’s some kind of Holy Bible of game playing where you’re always supposed to play the game one way and anything else is some kind of moral insanity. You know there are “cheat codes” included, by the developers, in the game, correct? So that “cheating” is ok? What about…

I mean, do elaborate on how exactly people would’ve found this at any point in the next couple of years. I mean, look at the Arkham Asylum hidden room. People played the game for a solid year and eventually the devs had to say “Btw there’s a secret here” because absolutely nobody found it. People are still looking for…

Often, they didn’t. You’ll still hear a story about people finding stuff in NES/SNES/PSX and N64-era games, a decade and change later after pretty much everyone has stopped playing them. Or they used stuff like Gameshark, Action Replay or straight up cheat codes to manage to get to places and items otherwise…
