And as I said, I’m not buying that it’s not more to do with an inept defense than an offense that’s really that impressive, yet. The reason I bring up the second gif is because it’s a perfect example of that, where the defense is presented with receivers doing very simple routes yet somehow can’t cover that in a zone…

Thank you for the vertigo inducing video of Baldy breaking down the play. Once I got off the floor and cleaned up the puke, I enjoyed the analysis quite a bit.

I honestly thought the play in the gif was illegal as it had multiple men in motion. Turns out that only applies to the backfield.

I live in Dallas and the amount of Dak sucking is unreal and insufferable. You should have heard sports radio shows the day after the Giants game. Apparently he’s fixed now since he tore up a god awful secondary, even though just a week prior to the game, the Cowboys had to sign a damn running back to a $100M contract…

Looking at winners is pretty wild:

Well, the no phones no parents (and in some cases no personal coaches) probably was the first indicator.

‘Ranch’ is the first clear indicator that something was drastically wrong with these corrupted adults.

This stat got me thinking... what’s the last grand slam without the Big 3 in the semis? (I assume at least one, if not two, of the big 3 made in to the semis of the above tournaments.)

I don’t think it is. And you are right, if you can’t go, you can’t go. Why risk a catastrophic injury.

Is the title of this article a swipe at Djokovic? If so, I will say that I was a college track athlete. I tweaked my calf in a race and refused to just quit. Thought it was the tougher thing to do. I missed my entire senior year as a result. Sometimes it takes courage to know when to quit.

I find gymnastics amazing to watch.  What these athletes are able to do is almost super human. Then you realize, pretty quickly, that you are looking at children - any sport where you are “burnt out” or “too old at 19 is essentially child abuse.

With Rafa being the only Big 3 member left and still in the QF, it’s time to break out one of my favorite stats... Since Federer’s first Grand Slam finals appearance 16 years ago (65 tournaments), these are the only finals without Federer, Nadal, or Djokovic:

SPOILERS. Thanks, now we know Rafa wins the dang tournament, sheesh

Can the guys just play 3 sets like the ladies? 5 is just too fucking long for them and the spectator.

I hate to be the one to break the news to Roger, but it doesn’t get any easier. I turn 48 in a few weeks, and I, too, had to take a medical break after the fourth set just because my seated posture was so bad while watching this match.

Goddamnit.

kind of rude from the President imo

My heart aches for these children so much that is passes straight to rage against the abusers and deniers.

I knew three day old dog shit, and you Federer are no three day old dog shit.
