Belts deserve a medal for the work they do:

You’ve got the Cards’ tweet embedded up there, which (I think) means that it will refresh with each page load and show updated retweet numbers and so forth.

The citizens of Portland would argue that the team was cool 5 years ago but is totally mainstream now and lost their spirit.

Hey buddy, the sport of fishing without keeping it for food is just enjoying goring a fish through it’s mouth with a hook. That’s not much better in comparison!

Who washed the home and away kits together?

So if that old saying is true, then Wayne Hennessey is doomed to repeat the Holocaust.

It's still real to me, damnit!

People rush the ring semi-frequently, less so than in the past, but usually they are taken down by security in seconds. Most fansjust do something stupid next to/behind the wrestler or mug for the camera before being tackled anyway, so I think there was a moment of “What’s this drunk asshat thinking?” going through…
