Thursday Night Football is ruining the sport. 

Fuck Thursday Night Football and goddamn everything right now!!!

Draymond Green’s a dick-and-balls-kicking asshole but he’s also right a lot of the time. For every can’t miss prospect like LeBron or KD or Zion, there’s a dozen guys every year who have the potential to have long, productive careers in the NBA and never get it because they don’t land in a situation that’ll help them…

You can’t actually see the hand shake. And Mayfield does seem to wiggle his hands a bit at the end. It could easily be a hand slap rather than an actual shake.

Yeah good point. I guess Bosa is still young enough he’s not too far separated from it  

Petty beef has the most flavor.

I was thinking there was a 90% chance this article would mention a broom handle

I think we need to limit high school football players’ access to brooms. These things always involve broom handles.

“Edmonton is the top attraction in the Pacific”
