Ok, here’s the thing.

Ball tampering is itself is not actually that big a deal. Bowlers have been attempting to alter the condition of the ball since the beginning of time. It’s completely rampant throughout the sport and always has been, and anyone who doesn’t understand that doesn’t really know much about cricket.

Smith is not the best batsman in the world. That would be Virat Kohli.

Responding to a crass question with an equally crass response or a threat is not displaying dignity.

Please stop. It’s bad enough here in the UK, having to suffer the BBC’s constant pushing of a Christie as tragic heroine narrative, when in reality, the results of at least 4 (possibly five) of the 6 events were of her own making. Don’t do it here, too.

Five of your top 8 are either snowboarding or figure skating, when alternative options include LITERALLY THE CLOSEST HUMAN BEINGS CAN GET TO BEING ABLE TO FLY and sports where you throw yourself down an ice slide at upwards of 80mph?!

Your brother needs to learn about birthday etiquette. Once you’re in your thirties, the only way to treat a birthday is with a groan and a droll comment about mortality.

Steve Rotheram is another idiot. A friend of mine works with Syrian refugees who’ve be relocated to the area. Rotheram apparently visited one such family, who had just been the victims of an arson attack, and asked them “Are you excited for Christmas?”

It must be remembered that this is a situation entirely created by how Barkley was treated in Ronald Koeman’s Everton. Koeman came in and went after him from day one. It may have started out looking like tough love, but by the end, it was just a vendetta.

Joe Anderson is the mayor of Liverpool. He is also a diehard and delusional Everton fan.

I have no idea where you pulled “Brough is a three-time Super League MVP” from, but that’s not true. He won the Man of Steel award (which would be the equivalent of being MVP) once - in 2013.

YEEEEEESSSSS!

I’d think it’s probably a bit late for Belgium to sack Martinez and get a capable manager.

Almost everything Laura said about tennis also applies to Test cricket - each match of which is five bloody days long.

I swear to god, the entire population of France is like the Jonah Hill character from Superbad. My flatmate is French, and she draws dongs EVERYWHERE. We have a chopping board in the kitchen just covered in dongs.

Steps 1, 2, 3 and 5 are pretty much covered by step 4, I reckon.

I wouldn’t say the glamour of the SNP is totally gone, but some of the sheen has definitely been lost. They still have 35 of the 59 Scottish MPs, and they cleaned up in the council elections last month, winning Glasgow for the first time ever. So they’re still very much the dominant force in Scotland right now.

But in

This article needs more references to Corbyn’s hilarious boob high five.

Disagree entirely. I wouldn’t stop to piss on most of the Labour Blairites if they were on fire

May has formed a minority government, propped up by an unofficial agreement with the 10 MPs from Northern Ireland’s DUP (Democratic Unionist Party) - the most singularly abhorrent right wing extremist party in the UK (complete with their own links to “loyalist” Northern Irish terrorist groups. Hypocrisy in action.)
