The Satyricon.

You are very much putting the cart (all those players and coaches (?) who worked so hard) before the horse (the fans). There is a nobility in amateur sport, but if you want to get paid to do it, you have to please the fans. Less eyeballs, less sport.

Relegation will obviously never happen for the obvious reason that people who own billion dollar things are very good at gaming the system to ensure those things never lose value...

It’s like he’s trying to recreate the Homer Simpson “I can’t believe I ate the whole thing” yearbook page....

It’s late, but can I point out that Arsenal — still! — bring in roughly 150% of the revenue that Atletico Madrid do?

I think you’re right here — there was a decent chance Alaphillipe was going to catch up or (quite literally) die trying.

I’m very much a casual cycling fan, and, as such, am not versed in all the drug controversies...

I re-watched Rocky III while on a nostalgia trip 10 years ago and thought the exact same thing: went in thinking of Mr. T as overexposed and ready to laugh at how cheezy people were in the 80s to have made him a star, but in reality he was pretty darn good and my immediate thought was that he should have had a lot more…

Boris Johnson — appearances aside — is not quite as WASPy as he appears.

Do any Wizards fans remember a similar story...

It’s not at all a coincidence that the bad guy on Stranger Things (Busey jr.) looks like a Trump/Johnson hybrid.

On the plus side, he did once get a red card for a tackle on German politician in a charity futbol match!

Yes, and if you take a slightly larger view, I think you could also argue that vacuum cleaners didn’t compete with brooms, they competed with maids.

I absolutely hate the “if only American sent its best athletes into soccer...” argument.

Have you seen Bolo Yeung??? 

As someone who’s taking a break from very slowly renovating a house, I’d move ‘power’ up to Deion’s slot, but that’s a great list either way.

Who looked more confused?

File it under the “even paranoid people have enemies”...

I’ve got a million bad girls songs, but this might be my favorite!

It’s not even the baddest ass shit Rooney has ever done for DC United.
