Gosh, she was so much more than a golf player though. If memory serves, she was a champion (Olympian?) in track & field and could crush it in anything she took up: baseball, tennis, whatever. Died young, too, if memory serves.

Well, obviously. Because orchids

Jesus, that happened to Davis Phinney back in the old Coors Classic days and, he says, "Cut him up like Frankenstein." Yeah, I had Davis Phinney over to dinner, what of it? Also, that's the second bike/cameracycle accident of the USPro — nuts

More likely they'll be traded to the Nationals in return for some veteran, if injury-prone, hot dog vendors

She's white, therefore it isn't an industry, but rather a national culture, that she profits from and fights to maintain a plantation status quo

That has dramatic HEFT. Super +1

Random Neil Leifer anecdote: my buddy is a senior writer for SI and covers the Tour de France as well as college football. One year (2006?), SI sent Leifer to le Tour to get his iconic touch on an iconic race. Spending many days in a car chasing the bike race, you get a good sense of what a guy is really like, and…

Yep. You're referring to Open Water swimming. The 1500m is competed only by men at the pool in the Olympics

My wrestling competition is reserved to three matches in jr. high — in which I got pinned twice — but doesn't he get points for an escape and a takedown?

Her time is also a soaring minute and a half faster than the Men's Gold Medalist of the 1964 games. In fact, men's Olympic Gold times would not match Katie until Munich in 1976.

Jesus, did anyone else see how high that ball caromed? He got hit went down, did the Three Stooges number, then stood back up before his shortstop caught it

That's a great point(s). Wait, we're rationally agreeing in principle to two separate shadings of a complex social issue. Isn't that against the rule of Internets?

It's also the subject of a conference recently held by radfems and a concurrent article in the New Yorker. JimAgain is on the cutting edge here, so don't bash if you haven't read up on it. All that being said, I think the radfems are wrong on this issue, in spades

{Winces, applauds}

This guy has a worse stance than Larry Craig

Great detail. Did they note whether he snaps the wrist down, like a curve, or twists sideways like a slider? Curious because...did you see the movement on that thing? It looks like it's on a string!

Nick, you pulled out my favorite, most haunting literary quote of all time: "for your life to be worth anything you must sooner or later face the possibility of terrible, searing regret." Which I think deals partially with his whole life, but specifically to the clue buried in the text: his son died of Reyes…

If his slider goes at curveball speed and has curveball horizontal break (which ... my God, does it ever), then presumably he delivers it like a curveball; so, why are we calling his curveball a slider?

Could NOT understand how that happened until I realized that the runner on second thought the bases were loaded and strolled towards third.

What's amusing is that — in the face of the NFLPA, federal fair pay laws and the certainty of successful litigation — he seems to actually think this could work. Has he ever been to college and seen what a typical collegiate frat bro does? Can you imagine non-sports industries trying to implement this? Maybe that's…
