You might have posted after the update but that is decidedly not what that paragraph was saying.

Deadspin video never works.

Yikes. Keep trying little buddy. This is not your day.

yeah good point. I am still mad about this but you’ll still be able to watch every EPL match in some way which is more than you can do in England and a better deal than trying to watch every NFL game here. It was just so good for the past few years. If this is the price to maintain quality coverage then I can deal.

Marchessault and Schmidt are pretty great young assets, I am surprised their former teams didn’t make a move to keep them. Other than that there isn’t much to covet.

No Clarkson is an outlier for sure. He is the only won who is strictly being moved because of his contract and nothing to do with hockey. But a whole lot of the other guys are in the mix because of their contracts and some hockey stuff.

Why did they unveil the whole uniform with basic black breezers and helmet? I am sure they won’t be playing with that and it looks really silly on that mannequin. Especially with the white gloves.  

Yeah but in MMA it would be a huge disadvantage to wear bulky boxing trunks because they restrict the range of movement in your legs (i.e. raising your knee above your waist or pretty much any wrestling move) but in boxing you don’t need to raise your knees and trunks don’t inhibit your hip rotation. So it makes sense…

I hope that David Price’s actions become the rule and not the exception regarding NFL trainers’ handling of drug abuse. Keeping his sexuality hidden from everyone, including his family, while battling a severe drug addiction is a recipe for insurmountable mental anguish. Really incredible and fortunate he survived and…

Don’t refs usually define the line where they are going to call a low blow before a fight, especially when guys are wearing their shorts up past the navel? I know I have seen it before but that may be the exception rather than the rule.

Rizzo pretty clearly didn’t deviate from his path here, so the question is then one of whether Hedges was blocking him. 

The dumb friends I have who ordered the Mayweather v. Pacquiao fight will probably order this also.

I like Ox as a player. Hard to tell where he fits best, especially because Arsene doesn’t seem to know either. His speed and strength go well on the right wing. To push him into midfield might be a worthy experiment but not sure it’ll work. Dier is good on defense and in possession but not a creative force and not…

Yeah, central midfield is the one area where there aren’t a lot of guys in their prime yet. Livermore probably wouldn’t even be on the bench with a full, healthy squad for a major competition. Henderson is a better option.

On paper England has loads of individual talent but no core system or philosophy to hold them together like other elite national teams. I had high hopes for England at Euro 2016 and they looked ragged after a long and grueling premier league season.

Only wish he’d clipped Chicharito and taken the yellow card to stop the counter-attack that lead to the goal. That’s being super picky though. He played great and I really like him in the lineup. I really don’t like Jones and Bradley together (as it seems no one does) but Jones probably can still be useful in certain…

Didn’t see your post. You’re right that he wasn’t technically “wrong” for blowing the whistle and he won’t be “punished”, summarily at least. But he may not get the next SCF assignment for a glaringly un-savvy move. I wonder if the linesman or other official were even yelling “loose!” because it was so blatantly free…

That whistle really stings. The notion that the ref was right to blow the play dead is incorrect. Refs are instructed to get themselves into an ideal position in order to make the correct call which is why you often see the ref almost standing on the back of the goal when the puck is in the crease. Pollock did not do…

This hit did not end his career. You can’t make that claim.

Someone’s a bitter Bruins fan. Cam Neely?! Did the Pens give him degenerative hips somehow?
