This was fascinating. Thanks for sharing.

This person came in third place in a sport none of us have thought about in four years, if ever. Her husband is the only thing that makes her story worth more than a quick nod in the daily medal count.

His name is Bob Bowman and there have been dozens of articles about his role in Phelps’ success.

“Psst. Su perro tiene cancer.”

You sold your bike because an Olympian crashed while flying down a wet hill on a strange course in pursuit of gold?

“The band is adjacent to the field!”

“I don’t remember anyone pausing to take a second to acknowledge that G.W. would never have gotten anywhere without H.W.”

It is cut and dried. Commenter Picklesandbeets clearly distorted abekane’s claim.

Watch out, guys. We’re dealing with a badass, over here.

I agree. And it seems like you agree with the OP, so I’m not sure why you’re attacking his statement.

“it’s ridiculous to say she never would have become a senator or Sec. of state if she wasn’t a former first lady.”

Poop like a champion.

“The press conference didn’t address whether Rodriguez will receive all of that money.”

I don’t know how Statcast works, but it seems reasonable that a ball that just clears a 395ft wall will land five feet beyond it. It’s not the like the ball is falling straight down.

Shit. That’s terrible. I’m sorry.

I bet those archers pictured are Jewish.

Great idea. If that doesn’t work, I’ll just imagine they’re the congealed phlegm balls of an emphysemic old man.

Thank you!

Dammit, I must be getting old.

*sigh*
