That gold-medal game back in '72 was fixed! The Soviets got three goddamn chances to make that final basket. Upset, my ass!
Niyangabo's 5000 meter win isn't much of a shock; he's still the sixth-fastest miler of all time, and championship 5000 meter races usually turn into mile races after two miles of jogging. He entered the 5k because Morceli and El Guerrouj were unbeatable in the 1500 back then, and he stood a better chance at medaling…
NBC did interview Jon Daly after his last skeleton run during live coverage earlier in the day; it was indeed hard to watch a man ruminating over an error that rendered a lifetime of training meaningless.
First of all, I'm not going to question the toughness of these skaters, because I sure as hell an not fit enough to pull off any of the moves they do on the ice.
There are shootouts in the group stages now?
I don't know why the quality of the skating was so poor. Were there problems with the ice? Did everybody try try an ambitiously-difficult long program, with first and second out of reach but the bronze medal up for grabs for the rest of the field?
Scott Hamilton has the analytical point of view of a youth soccer coach. Everybody has worked so hard to get here, everyone is amazing, and after the competition, we all get orange slices.
The red in the Dutch flag was originally orange, but the orange dyes available in the 17th century quickly faded to red from exposure to the sun.
It's quite evident that Johnny and Tara will be moving up to primetime coverage in 2018. Their commentary has been miles ahead of the main NBC crew these games, and their wardrobes alone have made the live coverage must-see for me. It's like they raided an old Southern woman's closet right before boarding their flight…
The only part of team figure skating I understand is that the judges are clearing rigging the competition for the Russians. I got a message from my mom telling me how much she loved Pachinko, which led to a long back-and-forth about Japanese pinball machines.
I've been staying away from this show; my impressions from the promos and critics' reviews suggest "Ambiguously Jewish Stoner Hipster Trash (A More Self-Awaredly Pathetic 'Girls')." I'm not a fan of "Girls" or comedy explicitly about marijuana use. Are my preconceptions incorrect, and should I give these broads a…
About a garbage collector from south Philly who developed super-human kicking abilities from kicking the broken hydraulic lift of his dump truck into alignment. The title tells you everything you need to know.
"For a C.H.U.D? A cannibalistic humanoid underground dweller? Well, if they's got their own vigilante task force, we are all in a mess of trouble!"
I was very distraught over the fact that Michelle Kwan was passed over for the 1994 Olympic team, which family members will remind me every time I make a disparaging remark about figure skating. To be fair, I was eight years old at the time.
Judge and Bailiff remarked a couple of months ago how most of their recent cases were disputes between couples, and made an appeal for more non-couple cases to be presented to the court. I'd say the request only attracted the kinds of pretentious boneheads we've seen in the last few cases, and the Judge made the same…
Thank you, Perd Hapley.
Don't limit yourself to hip-hop. Mainstream country music in 2013 is dominated by uber-sexist, materialistic redneck bro rap. Witness "That's My Kinda Night" by Luke Bryan, the biggest hit country song of the year:
Yes, and…
That bit has spawned the most disturbing fan art.
