I think coach of the French national team would be a good next step for them. They have a pretty golden generation in their early 20's right now. If Zidane becomes the guy that won the world cup for France as a player in 1998 and then as a coach in 2022, they will bury him in the fucking Pantheon.

I spent a lot time at Dennis’ Place for Games in the early-mid 90's. My friends and I all lived within a mile or so and we were 13-ish when NBA Jam was released. My main memories are that the no head covering thing was necessary to avoid gang problems and that on some days probably 80% of the kids there were waiting…

Yes, exactly. Like PBS, the BBC, CBC....

He’s the best set-piece taker in the league, probably top five in the world. Any free kick within 35 yards becomes a legitimate goal scoring opportunity.

Without question. Less than 10% of Americans are 6 feet tall, which has to be the minimum height for dunking (with the exception of like 1 in a 1000 jumping ability). If you go up to 6'4”, which is probably about where you’d start having a majority who might be able to dunk you’re down to about 1% of the population.

Racial/sexual anxiety tied to cuckoldry goes way back. It’s basically the plot of Othello.

How precisely does a scarf over her head hinder “identification”?

That is not a “big settlement.” That’s slip and fall money. That’s cost of defense money, that you pay on any case to avoid the nuisance of a trial. There should have been another zero tacked on or else she should have taken this to court.

My wife is pregnant and our due date is the 21st, so we’ve already been joking about our daughter being the chosen one. Her coming will be marked in the heavens, etc.

The quick cut-away to those white people trying to swing the ropes was violence.

Essence Fest was like a month ago right? Hope all the young journalists got tips from their aunties on where to go while they’re down there.

Every article about this should just be about how gross it is for a 48 year old man to be dating a 26 year old woman.

I’d add Aaron Ramsay to that list.

This woman is only 34 years old. Why does everyone in this administration look 10 years older than they are? Spicer only 45, Miller only 31!

If there were ~30 trans murders last year, and there are, let’s say 1 million trans people in the US, that would actually mean the murder rate for trans people is lower than that of the general population.

He was incredibly popular at his time and was the only President to win re-election for nearly 100 years, between Andrew Jackson and Woodrow Wilson. As you note, he was never found personally culpable in in any of those scandals, yet an entire generation of (largely southern) historians spent the next 50 years…

That’s a bad take. Grant was an above-average President.

It doesn’t pre-date the existence of unions.

BoSox will not include Devers in a package for Frazier and/or Robertson.

Two plus pitches. He hits mid-upper 90's on the fastball, but the curve is his best. Gets compared (unrealistically) to Doc Gooden’s.
