The Male Gase is a powerful thing, indeed.

Not to quibble, but Florence Griffith-Joyner died of an epileptic seizure.

Your experience with Nairobi far eclipses mine. I’m just trying to think of cities around the world that are large enough to handle an event of Olympic proportions. Mere spitballing.

Honestly, an even better idea. Turn it into UN-administered neutral terrtory.

I still argue that the Olympics should be rotated among 6 or 7 different, designated host cities each generation. Off the top of my head: LA, London, Paris, Tokyo, Sydney, Mexico City/Rio/Buenos Aires, and Cape Town/Jo-burg/Lagos/Nairobi.

Elvis Andrus’ induction speech is going to be the absolute best. I cannot wait.

It’s not a state, but a commonwealth in association with the United States. Essentially, non-incorporated territory with a long history of its own national and cultural identity. The closest corollary I can think of is Hawai’i, but without the desire for the federal government to make it a state.

Puerto Ricans are American citizens, but for purposes of international competition, Puerto Rico has its own baseball and Olympic organizing committees.

40.5 - Getting an out on an appeal play.

Here’s a crazy idea I just thought of: What about merging CONCACAF and CONMEBOL? It would be about the size of Europe for the number of teams, and it would allow us the chance to play against all sorts of greater players and playing styles. Also, the combined confederation would probably get as many World Cup berths…

And they STILL messed this up because any own-basket in basketball is worth two points, no matter where’s shot from.

Ari Fleischer absolutely wants this movie.

Democrats: What do voters in 2017 want?!?

I’m required to call my employer to remind them to send me my paycheck every two weeks, too.

Having grown up in Columbus in the 80's and 90's, I gotta say that Arena’s fear of actually winning games rivals only the terror of, and instilled by, John Cooper.

Dammit I was hoping I could make this joke. Neither of them have any pages, though.

While Konta’s reception in England might be lukewarm, I’d venture to guess that if she wins Wimbledon, she’ll be as British as Andy Murray.

“Let him work it out.”

TIL that everyone in Utah has the exact same fire pit.

Just kidding.
