Each pole has a different stiffness (measured in CM of deflexion), and length (lol, i know). The faster/stronger/more technically sound you are, the more pressure you can get into a longer, stiffer pole, and the higher heights you can clear. The standards that hold the crossbar also can be adjusted anywhere between…

I, respectfully, disagree. I’ve gotten a foul ball as an adult (not behaving like a child to get it. It actually rolled up under my seat while I was eating nachos) but I took it home and gave it to my nephew.

Rumor has it the cheerleaders were also part of a pyramid scheme.

Of course police told them they did nothing wrong; prostitution is completely legal in Horry County.

Terrible.

“Part of why the U.S. has never become as good as soccer as it could be is because the team doesn’t have to try all that hard to qualify for the World Cup.”

Wait....you’re crying and bitching about something that wont happen for 9 years? By then, you’ll be a twice-divorced dad of 2 step kids, one bastard child, working for Chipotle upselling guac on my chorizo bowl, lucky to afford a 18" B&W TV that gives you classic reruns of Big Bang Theory.

Christ look at the camel toe on that!

If they’re looking for an unoccupied space that’s hosted bowls, how about Mark Davis’ head?

eh, pulisic did a little bit on that goal i guess, but it was mostly created by US youth soccer

I like the part where the guy yells “goal” for 1 minute. That must be some cool new trend.

Personally I think we should have a league where PEDs are banned, and then one where they are required. We’ll let the ratings decide.

Well, we now have a thread with straw-man, ad-hominem, slippery slope and pedantic mentions.

i also look at it from a standpoint of wanting our athletes to be held to a standard of their job. Tom would be punished (justified) for plagiarizing. He would apologize and maybe get his name back. Why should we treat athletes any different? You know what you should and should not do. You chose not to. Does he need…

Don’t worry. The coach ended up getting what he deserved when he later found pee-pee in his Coke.

Javier Baez, Jeimer Candelario, and Matt Szczur are the only individuals on the 40 man roster remaining from the previous Cubs regime. He jettisoned their draft picks because they were mostly trash. This past season was the first one where the Cubs’ payroll was even top 10.

I’m kind of a crotchety old man when it comes to celebrations. But I’d like a middleground.

When someone hits a game winner, I want to see the bat flip; I want to see the helmet come off, etc. When someone scores their first career TD, I want to see it.

What I get tired of (seen more in the NFL) is celebrating Every.…

To me, the issue with a single game not being important is all on those particular fans though. Teams miss the playoffs buy a single game every year. Tell me that a blown lead in April doesn’t count as much as a loss in September when you miss they playoffs by one single game. The issue isn’t with the length of the…

This is a good sign for American baseball teams in the MLB this season. It’s much more likely that an American team will win the World Series now.
