How many times did that announcer say "she just doesn't have enough experience" after someone ate it? This is the fucking Olympics, they all have enough experience. The course designers, not so much.

Trudat and SI should be ashamed of itself for basically dressing up a press release as an article.

I can understand their frustration. Last time I wore a rubber suit, lab testing said it was 99% effective. Now I've got a little shit running around the house calling me Dad.

Now that's a quality manager's gut.

That's exactly the WRONG way to think about this. You can't measure this in a relative way to other locker rooms. This is awful behavior. No one, in any capacity, should ever have to put up with this shit.

Personal annotated responses:

I'm guilty of being a loyal friend and good teammate... I've never denied it.

I am by no means a professional, but i've been snowboarding since 1994. You can just tell by looking at the nature of the crashes that:

That's what I thought this was going to be.

Shhhh.... We are supposed to pretend E.T. Is a solid player who could give quality minutes to a contender.

I believe the precise wording was "nyet homo."

The first thought I had when he was talking about weed "killing brain cells" was that football is much worse for the brain.

Huge football fan here. So this comment is not anti-football. And, actually, I'm not a pot guy, so it's not even intended to be pro-marijuana. But, like, aren't football and the massive hits (and resulting concussions that come with it) perhaps a little more dangerous to the brain than smoking weed?

If that's not the single most boring, anticlimactic thing I have ever seen, it's only because I watched the actual Super Bowl.

Considering the sub-standard quality of Thursday Night Football, Jim Nantz and Phil Simms is the perfect announcing duo when you think about it.

D. Orlando Ledbetter:

"I had an awful, awful warm-up."

"Every shutout you get is a team effort," Scrivens said

"Why don't they just get another job, then?" is what your argument boils down to, which is completely missing the point. Just because you didn't try and improve your working conditions doesn't mean you get to shit on workers who are doing just that.

Why can't average working Americans be more like the Chinese and suffer their fates and indignities at the hands of the elite in solemn, patriotic silence?
