Rickety Bridge is definitely annoying but it can also add a fun game theory dimension. Do you play a card there last turn and try to claim an easy location (or tie at worst), or use the power to compete on a less volatile location? Do you sacrifice a card there early to minimize the impact of a Nova? I've found…

Can it really be a "golden" age if they haven't actually won anything? Seems like a very very silver age at best.

“However, we reserve the right to give ourselves a choice at our sole discretion. And at the discretion of the Chinese government.“

Argument is futile. Orihalcon is obviously smarter, more perceptive, possesed of greater common sense, better looking, and overall just cooler than everyone else in this comment thread. You can tell by the novel genius expressed in statements like “opinion is subjective” and “in a perfect world” a thing “would be…

You keep clutching those pearls, don’t let anyone tell you different!

How can you use the words “cake walk” and not mention Man City’s group?

Gamely? Maybe. With a heapload of salt? Definitely. I’m pretty sure they still put an asterisk after Los Angeles when writing out the team's full name.

Also Pavon is a legitimate talent.

MLS refs tend to be pretty dodgy from an everything standpoint. This was actually a relatively good game from Chapman.

LAFC has still yet to actually beat the Galaxy, so that can’t be the only reason that ATL/ORL is bad.

Now if only we could do something about the bad VAR takes...

”No context” is a good reason to not react one way or the other, not justification for being a reactionary asshole.

Did you miss all the times in his statement that Luck mentioned how he loved football, and that the cycle of injuries, rehab, and pain took that love away?

Is it possible that it took him this long into the preseason to understand the severity of his current injury and the process that it would take to possibly get back to 100%, only to tur risk injury again?

Zenith. The top of the top, the best of the best. So, you know, extra racist.

Hmm, I wonder who benefits from making “is it OK to be racist?” a political issue? Could it be the rich network executives that want a guy in power whose electoral appeal is basically “it’s OK to be racist”? No, of course not. What do they stand to gain? Oh, tax cuts? Huh.

This article could use a little fact-checking (“and it took four hours and 57 minutes—the longest match in tournament history—to officially make that decision”) and a LOT of proofreading (“Federer still continued to press on and while trying to put that grave error behind him the end.”).

This is the weirdest part of all this. Is it because the catcher hesitated in this case, or will it always be scored a fielder's choice?

Runners on base can already advance on a wild pitch or passed ball. But the question of the player trying to steal first making it back home is interesting.

It’s the same people who justify police killing black/brown people with arguments like “he shouldn’t have resisted arrest” or “the officer was afraid”. They will grasp at anything to justify the execution of anyone who doesn't fit into their extremely narrow perception of "person with non-zero worth".
