As a guy who ran the 3200, who doesn’t count the laps in their head? What state meet doesn’t have a lap counter at the line? There must have been a clock at the line, how did none of them realize “wow, this is the fastest I have ever run this, by almost exactly a lap”

I also don’t think they should broadcast any games in arenas funded by taxpayer money. Makes it too political, you know?

So Jackie Robinson will never be mentioned again? No NFL highlights in October when all the players wear pink or any of the many holidays where MLB players wear red, white, and blue or camo? Cut away from games when the National Anthem is played? When MLB or the NFL has a work stoppage in a couple of years they will…

So no more political discourse and since keeping politics out of sports is so important to these folks, no more national anthem before games, no more god bless america during the 7th inning stretch, no more military fly overs before football games, no more military reunions, camo-hats or uniforms, or giant american…

Some of the most important sports stories ever are important because of their intersection with politics. How do you tell a politics-free version of the story of Jackie Robinson, or the Munich Olympics?

Not everything does. But sometimes sports and politics (broadly defined) are going to intersect, and locking up when that happens like one of those fainting goats when it is frightened is worthy of derision. 

Serious question for those who do:
Why do people watch ESPN for anything other than live events?

I don’t think we should criticize her. Maybe just as a society we need to stop with the whole “They wouldn’t have killed themselves if they weren’t guilty” concept.

Nobody innocent hangs themself. Someone that’s innocent doesn’t hang himself.

I believe her, but the comment “Nobody innocent hangs themself” is extremely problematic.

I can’t quite make out what to think of this . Your description sounds like pretty much every other true energy drink out there (sorry, not monster).

Nah, this argument is BS. You’re buying City’s propaganda hook, line and sinker. FFP is there (in theory) to keep teams from spending themselves to the brink of insolvency, ala Leeds, Portsmouth, Atletico Madrid, Borussia Dortmund... (I could do this all day)

And you know the writer is aware of the ffp issues because they peek into reddit, he just ignored them because it doesn't work for.his argument. Talk.about a glaring omission.

I don’t know if it’s a directive from the editor, or just a case of colleagues adopting each other’s literary styles, but the constant “dunked his soul to hell” and “smacked the ball to the goddamned moon” shit is fucking exhausting and not remotely funny anymore.

Last thing Magic needed was more aids working against him. 

Is it appropriate to use that picture in this situation?

So all this time my wife has been trying to pass a drug test?

lol why don’t you try writing a-

17 months. A year and a half! The casualness with which the system will destroy your life never fails to shock me.
