I’d argue its farther back than that. Having been at this game, I’m a little biased maybe - but Bornsteins goal in the 95th minute against Costa Rica...

Shows what I know, I’ve watched that replay probably 50 times and always thought Ian said “Goal, goal, USA”

Really good point here and something that has been overlooked - in fact I think it was only mentioned once, briefly, during the broadcast of the COL game.

More like “kick and walk at an increased pace....”

There was better camera work and more production value in that 43 seconds of video than in 4 days of FOX broadcasting the US Open.

Wambach has been two steps slower than every other player on the field throughout the WC. She seems to just be running around waiting to cherry pick a good header and contributing zero else. Yes she scored once, great. But in one case yesterday she bowled into another US player trying to get to a header and the…

Norman had a couple of classics.

It was inexcusable to have such poor camera work this weekend. The announcers I will mostly give a pass because it is hard as shit to come together as an announcing team and this being their first time out - they get a pass from me for now.

Good grief, I would expect a trophy like that to be shipped in a padded SKB or Pelican case or something along those lines. One or two thin wraps of bubble wrap, in a box barely bigger than the trophy, with no paper or packing peanuts in it? Yeah I’m really stunned at the result.

Curious on this as well.

There were at least 8-10 Steelers in the sandbar area the whole night. Unfortunately I’m not a Steelers fan so couldnt name most of them but they were being super cool with fans and taking pictures all night. One guy - who was 6’6-6’8 and might have looked like Marcus Mariotta if he weighed 300 pounds - seemed to…

Ugh, come on now. Calling Washingtonian "the D.C. area's foremost ranked-lists-of-local-businesses purveyor" is like calling the National Enquirer the world's foremost purveyor of top news headlines.

Yeah, Noah made over $450M in worldwide box office. I dont know what barometer we're going to use but thats probably not considered a flop. Acceptable 'star worthy' answers would have been 'Broken City' - or any Ben Affleck/Gigli joke.

I have an absolute killer time at DC United games. And they continue to put a *very* good and entertaining product on the field, kudos to Ben Olsen for another fun year.

"I'm sure the Alabama faculty could think of a few departments that could use a donation that size"

Exactly how many "long-standing" season ticket holders do you see in that picture? Four?

The problem that these shortsighted, Excel-first ownership guys miss out on is that these "freebie" tickets are meant to spur interest. The point is bringing someone in off the street for free gets them interested in the team. Maybe they have a good time, maybe they dont - maybe they never come back again. Chances are…

Fantastic comment that virtually no one will appreciate.

The Nationals do a great job with their Bark in the Parks. They are only in a few outfield sections so its not like they are all over the park and you do have to pay for a seat for your dog - I think its $10. But on the concourse behind the section there are all sorts of "relief areas" setup, water stations etc. Its…
