Pretty awesome of FIFA to pick someone who built the stadium to do the first kick.

It's J-Lo I think

Luck is really just a word for causal determinism on a level too micro for us to measure. A puck bounces a certain way or a player loses an edge in a crucial moment because of high-level collision physics, not because of true randomness.

Goalies do that to create friction for themselves, not the pucks, so they aren't sliding around the crease on the fresh "wet" ice after it's been resurfaced.

Luck may be hockey's bullshit dump, but this guy is most definitely hockey's bullshit hump

Why even have more than two teams in the NBA? Just have the East vs. West All Star teams play each other 82 times.

Carmelo is a giant piece of shit and a team cancer. I'd love to see him destroy the Heat. He's essentially Kobe without the winning or statutory rape ambitions.

You start by saying "you're not asking for competitive balance" and then proceed to make no case whatsoever that I'm not. The system that you propose— which you know would never, ever happen in the NBA, ever— would not guarantee competitive balance at all.

Dear NBA superstars: you are global icons capable of selling billions of dollars of merchandise, TV rights and tickets for the NBA. The fact that any of you would ever have to take a paycut is a pretty good sign you're getting screwed.

Joke missed.

For Nevada, it's not even the locals who drink the most. Its the tourist.

Yeah, the surprising difference between Coburn and those horndog politicians is that the losers in political scandals are rarely hung like horses.

Oh come on. She wasn't saying learn to protect yourself at the expense of everything else. Also, I don't think they are mutually exclusive: college men should learn not to rape, AND women should be able to protect themselves. Rape isn't the only crime out there, you know. Cut her some slack—she had like 2 minutes to…

"Would it hurt if we all become black belts to defend against possible violent threats? No. But why should we have to?" Because we are living in the real world where "teaching men not to rape" sounds good, but is in reality just BULLSHIT!

Its like I stumbled on to ESPN.com today.

I thought reptiles were cold blooded and didn't sweat?

LeBron left the game later than most Heat fans, so you gotta give him that.

on the 70th anniversary of D-Day, I think it's fitting that we are hearing from the Sand In The Vagina Generation about the air conditioning last night.
