Apt headline considering that Adam Silver looks like a B-movie cryptkeeper. 

The ref almost certainly instructed the Cameroonian players to wait for her whistle. So they’d have to run at the ball from 10 yards away as soon as the whistle is blown, but the English player is only going to need half a second or so after the whistle to play the ball. Having a cohesive wall is probably a better

Doug Ford getting booed and disrespected by the GM on the same day in separate incidents makes this a special championship.

Unpopular opinion but depending on the clientele and their level of wealth a guy with a gun could be a very good thing at a fancy black tie event, actually. I'm glad everyone is mostly okay here though, it's scary stuff

Houston is the fourth largest metro area in the country. And it's a coastal city.

Anyone with that much money is by definition a psycho

Garfield minus Garfield is great, but so too is Silent Garfield, which has the cat but no thought bubbles. It adds a level of realism that makes Jon that much more pathetic.

Actually I think the first rule of soccer is that you aren’t supposed to use your hands
