This is where the tried and true “One of the Good Ones” trope comes into play. If you ever encounter a true Tom Robinson, who utterly defies your racial stereotypes, don’t fear, let alone question and potentially reevaluate your beliefs. Instead employ “One of the Good Ones”, and exempt that particular individual from…

Not going to lie. It would be a funny joke if you forgot who said it....

Every man has two deaths, when he is buried in the ground and the last time someone says his name. In some ways men can be immortal. - Ernest Hemingway

Concourse post, comments work!

A good part, although not all, of the vitriol toward Xhaka, was the fact that he was having a nice little stroll off the pitch when being substituted instead of running off. Would it have made a difference, no, but geez, make the effort at least.

But I’m a firm believer that through sports, independent of governments, you bring people together, they acknowledge that commonality they create empathy.

Can you direct me to where the line forms to punch this walking penis in the face.

Tough but fair. 

Yeah, sure, but also fuck the Yankees. 

A good time to remember that Colin Kaepernick gave up his job and all the considerable perks that come with it to stand up against injustice, while LeBron James, whose legacy and bank account are both more secure, is unwilling to risk even a small fraction of future earnings to speak on one of the few world issues…

The golden age of shitting the bed at every conceivable turn? What a time to be alive, Tottenham supporters!

I wouldn’t be too worried, I’m sure Löw will sniff this one out just fine. 

I think it’s just a folksy home cure: if you can’t stop powerful runs, 10 bananas should fix you right up!
