To be fair, the exact same could be said of a Barry Zito fastball.

I can believe I'm actually saying this but... I feel bad for Ronaldo.

If I was sitting next to that lady I wouldn't even be mad about the beer shower. That is the epitome of Ambitious but Rubbish.

Cost cap is a better solution. Let engineers be creative. I'm not saying BoP leads to bad racing, touring cars are exciting as hell to watch. But it isn't what endurance racing was meant to be. The endgame of it is changing the risk of speed over reliability into just reliability, as there's no point in going for…

You can’t say this enough: Balance of Performance has no place in endurance racing. Make the freaking regulations and whatever cars manufacturers bring within those regulations leave them the hell alone. BoP belongs in touring cars. As to the argument about keeping costs down, I feel like I’m taking crazy pills. The…

Nurburgring same year right? Mclaren had by far the fastest car that year, and if it weren't for mechanical failures Raikkonen would have been world champion. I believe his car failed while he was leading a Grand Prix 5 times that year? Something around that number.

Maybe we can pray to the Many Faced God and give him Patrick Dempsey’s face.

The day Raikkonen leaves F1 will likely be the last the English speaking world hears from him as I don’t see him being terribly public in retirement, and we will be all the worse for it.

If Deadspin writers had the same journalism skills as Jalopnik writers instead of Gawker writers.

I had about five members of Cal’s basketball team in a class my senior year that was a specific Letters & Science, not gen Ed requirement. They would talk and pass each other notes during exams without fail and the professor would just kind of ignore it a bit. Like he was upset he had athletes in his class period and…

Cal has always had a weird relationship with sports. They spend a decent amount on it and rely on football revenue/donations quite a bit.. But nobody who works for the university but the actual players/coaches themselves seem to care too much about winning. It’s enough just that they exist. They were so strapped…

I agree with you that all genders/races should be able to tap into and experience a love of speed, as you called it. I don’t agree that all individual car cultures need to be celebrated by everyone however. I personally like canyon/track/race driving. I don’t need to like the Sideshows of my local Oakland simply…

Our long national nightmare is over!

That a person famous in the 1980s (Thomas Dolby for example) will suddenly pop out and help whenever you’re in a bit of trouble. My time in Manchester led me to believe this could possibly be true, and my time in Speke/Liverpool partially so (lots of Wayne Rooney lookers come out of nowhere when you’re in trouble,…

Phil Oakey didn’t show up out of the blue to help. My antiquated notions about Britain and its place in the cosmos have been utterly dashed and I'm much worse off for it.

Let's be honest. He's probably joining Golden State.

Yeah, in a reply to someone else in this chain I said I thought his main thing is comfort. It seems to me he thinks he needs to “prove himself” to show that he belongs and that feeling may very well come from the other presenters themselves (Harris telling him his take on the Mustang GT was shit). I think this next…

I guess we can file murder under white collar crimes now.

I said this on the season finale thread, the presenter jump challenge was the best thing to come out of this season because it showed what we could be in for next run.. The presenters staying on showed that if the show will let them be them, we could be in for something quite cheeky in the future. It genuinely made me…

The last non shitty MTB album! Yay!
