Has there been a race weekend this year where he hasn’t at least spun the car, if not crashed it? I can’t remember one.

You could put a whole lot of Rick James on this list. He’s a prime example of the difficulty in separating an artist from their work. The lyrics to several of his songs seem problematic, especially when weighed against his sadistic sexual/personal offenses later in life.

Fans don’t care what’s good for NHL owners. They want to see the best players representing their countries in the Olympics.

Vegas’ hockey franchise existed this year when NHL players ( like Fleury ) were kept out of the Olympics by the league. It didn’t take very long, but VGK fans already have a solid reason for Bettman hate. He’s just so very hateable.

A strong midfield, a strong attack and a weak backline basically makes them Arsenal. That means either 4th place or 6th place, depending on which era of Arsenal model they follow.

Benzema has character problems and isn’t nearly as beautiful as Giroud. The rest of the world benefits from his exclusion. France? Well... no.

Realistically, Brazil, Germany and also Italy - if we’re talking about historical accomplishments - are in a group of their own. France, Spain, Argentina and Uruguay ( under the same caveat as Italy ) would be the next step down from there. After that, there’s a mass of countries like Portugal, the Netherlands,…

Billy doesn’t know either.

If anyone would offer an unblemished opinion, it would be someone with no skin in the game. It’s not like the US and Saudi Arabia have some deep seeded soccer rivalry that would drive US fans to unduly discredit the Saudi team. Being the weakest team in the tournament may seem like faint praise, but they still…

Well what about, South Korea? They did it first and the consequences were severe by FIFA standards ( by that, I mean nothing was done at all ). Russia, on the other hand, would never stoop so low, but if they did, the other guys got a way with it so... *winks and nudges aggressively*

Maybe it’s just foreshadowing?

To be fair... it’s only by random chance that Betances hasn’t done the same thing to somebody else that Fiers did to Stanton and the Yankees haven’t thrown him to the curb ( yet ).

There’s no need at all for a mea culpa, because Billy is no more responsible for the failings of USA Soccer than run-of-the-mill Saudis are for their team being the weakest in the tournament, which they are.

So... the text-to-speech narration of that video was friggin’ unbearable. Is this the kind of shit you watch on Youtube? Your meandering, overbloated writing style somehow makes more sense now.

I don’t think Cora and Sale are helping much either. Whole lotta’ uptighteness in beantown.

Musk is doing far more for the planet than anyone else.

Watching the orioles play ‘defense’ against the Yankees a couple of days ago was super depressing. They’ve already checked out on the season.

Haven’t you heard? Nobody likes boring teams that hit a lot of homeruns and score a lot of runs. The people want to see small-ball! Bunts and steals!

It’s amazing to see a team burn through the ‘lovable underdog’ good will and go straight to fuck-those-guys-forever status like the Red Sox have.

I remember watching TT3D Closer to the Edge and seeing Conor Cummins crash after hitting a bump near the end of the film. He was a super lucky boy to survive that.
