“This is a teachable moment,” Sung told the Times-Dispatch. “It’s not something that we’re proud of. The team is very apologetic and sorry. There’s nobody of any color that should say it. Period. There’s nobody that should say it.”

The number of odd/disgusting things eaten by my Polish grandfather are too long to list in a tweet. Lots of pickled fish of unknown origin.

Dan,

“Look at the almost look of shock in the eyes of Flacco.”

The point of the arena deal and that wad of taxpayer cash was to “revitalize” a moribund downtown. That it’s taken a single home game (and that might even be generous) for the new car smell to wear off should encapsulate pretty neatly the scam of publicly financed stadiums.

I played volleyball year-round from the age of 10, went to college on a volleyball scholarship, and coached a high school team to two state championships, a club team to a #4 national ranking, and coached the game at the college level.

It’s a typical NFL scene that never bothered me a bit before Junior Seau’s suicide: A player down a few yards from a yawning ref, whose body language indicates his sole concern is the flow of the game, while a trainer blitzes onto the field as if resolved to resuscitate a dying man when seconds count.

Ryan, thank you for the great seasons you gave us Phillies fans. You will always have a special place in our memories.

Lots of good lines, but I am shocked no one pointed out these Eagles season ticket holders in the clip.

So Tony Romo is dying and that’s why this is happening?

Finally, justice for NBA mascots everywhere.

WBC baseball has been really, really fun in that way. I wish the MLB were this loose.

Man, I love how hitters acknowledge great plays like that.

Counterpoint: Fuck Gonzaga also

Nobody hates Northwestern. You don’t hate Northwestern. Just because Magary wrote a column on it doesn’t make it a thing. It would’ve been kinda cool had they won.

That’s interesting. I thought you had only eight seconds to get it over halfcourt, but apparently it’s eight seconds of shot clock. Didn’t know that.
