Rather than say, "You can't fire me because I already quit," Ms. Greene needs to take a screenshot of the statement to the unemployment office when she files for benefits.

It could also have been an "up yours" sign, which is done with a similar "two fingers" up gesture.

If they hadn't been, it wouldn't have been the first time. During a 1987 match against France, New Zealand All Blacks international Wayne Shelford took a boot to the groin. That boot ripped open his scrotum and one of his testicles fell out. He went off long enough to have his ball sack stitched up and re-entered the

I applaud almost all of your post. We do need more women working in sports media. We need more people in sports media who can speak to more than what happens between the white lines, and I say that as a former sportswriter who now dabbles in sports but now writes primarily about cops and courts and military history.

Usually when Welsh fans rush the pitch, it's a rugby match. Of course, Wales usually has more reason to celebrate in that sport.

Goldschmidt getting plunked couldn't have been deliberate. I mean, we're talking about Ernesto Frieri here. He can't even hit the strike zone from 60 feet 6 inches away, much less Goldschmidt's hand.

And the Pirates should have thrown at Kirk Gibson with the first pitch.

It appears that Palmer's testimony before Goodell (and possibly the unseen section of video) was key in the NFL's decision on leniency for Rice.

This is the precise reason that most states have laws requiring that SOMEONE goes to jail on a domestic call. If police respond to an assault between two romantically involved

(The worst opinions of the day, as per usual, can be found in the Washington Post's opinions section.)

Speaking of pimpin', how can I not "like" a comment from someone pimpin' the Danger Mouse logo. Only one thing. Who spells pimpin' with a "g" at the end?

If you're calling it a "lifestyle," then you're officially a homophobe. Or, to put it more bluntly, an anti-gay bigot.

So now I can say that my 11-year-old son has something in common with Boobzilla - I mean, Amazon Ashley. And, yes, Greg Oden looks just as miserable standing next to a pre-teen boy as he does next to a 6-foot-7 burlesque dancer.

That sound you just heard was 500 divorce attorneys following her Reddit.

I'm a retired rugby player whose athletic talent level was roughly beer-league quality. Or to put it another way, a long snapper. But I competed against some of the best athletes in the world - Rugby World Cup participants - and I actually COMPETED against and alongside them. I didn't go jogging out for a handful of

"Let me start off by saying that you don't have to be married into sports ..."

Stop right there. You didn't marry into sports, lady. You married a long snapper. You married a guy who doesn't practice with the rest of the team, but instead goes off into a corner of the field and throws a football backward between his

After scoring the Golden Goal in a World Cup final, Mr. Gotze will never again have to service his own boner.

Lacrosse is OK. But it's still not rugby.

That's because rugby league is lame. If this were rugby union, he'd probably be promoted to the first fifteen and get a TV appearance with Bear Grylls.

You call this a World Cup? There's only one World Cup and it's going off next year in England. Seriously. People fight wars over soccer World Cup qualifiers. Meanwhile, the Rugby World Cup gives us a nation healing its racial wounds.

As the man said, soccer is 22 guys pretending they're hurt for 90 minutes. Rugby is 30 guys pretending they're not hurt for 80 minutes.
