I got paid an hourly rate to broadcast soccer and women’s basketball at my absolutely terrible D3 college. Anyone doing this for free for a freaking D1 program that owns its own broadcasting network is an idiot scab who take a long jump off a short pier.

Also: Goal line technology is an upset tummy.

The fact that this is still grey after eight stars leads me to believe that Deadspin hates dissent.

It’s the same as last week, when VAR disallowed a gorgeous Man City goal because it decided that Raheem Sterling’s shoulder was offside by a couple centimeters.

the top flight league of the english system has 20 teams in it, they have a relegation system where the bad teams that can’t perform drop into lower leagues

fortnite earned $2.4 billion in 2018.  The women’s world cup generated about $75 million in revenue.

Watching the shitty cell phone video, and looking at the other video, I could easily believe she never even touches the wall with her left hand.

Rapinoe hasn’t played that well.  Was better against France than Spain and Sweden, but the reality is that only 1 of the 4 knockout goals was from run of play and that was a tap in.

So um it sure looked like Spain should have gotten a penalty at the end. Surprisingly VAR stayed silent.

Uruguay and Chile both won by the tallies of 4-0 in dull affairs, against a red-carded Ecuador and a B-team Japan.

Finally, a video that belongs on Deadspin.

You really want officials saying “Well, officially there should still be time on the clock, but it’s a better story if we just end it here, so rules be damned!”

based on the absurd videos you watched above - YES. If you took a look at the entire play - NO, not at all. Remember, that Jack picked up and threw Dola after the TD (with no penalty) and the refs were trying to keep the peace. That ref that was laughing was doing so because he initially thought the Pats player was…

I like Tatum. Yamming on dudes and shooting the three at 50%+ at 19 years old, where did that all come from?

I loved it as well. And gotta say we need more rugby everywhere. Great sport.

Sued by DOJ for refusing to rent to black people, ultimately settling the case (despite “never settling”), then sued and settles again for failing to live up to original settlement.

I mean it’s the first game of the season, against William & Mary. Probably not going to draw huge viewership.

Doris has been the homie since way back and it’s nice to see her get her props. You have no idea how many foul looks I had to give to people when she started doing national NBA games and people around me would say something like “What they got a woman doing NBA games for? Whats she know about the game?” Mother…

Yes I know Yedlin Pulisic and the rest are in Europe which is great. I am saying  more players need to go the Pulisic route and not be afraid of being a little fish in a big pond. *cough* Laddycakes *cough*
