The adage in hockey is that players lose their hands before their legs - meaning, that because fast twitch muscles deteriorate quicker so their ability to react reflexively slows before strength, stamina. If their legs eventually follow it’s in speed and bursts of acceleration rather than endurance.

I like to think that all the D. Rose votes are coming from Antoine Griezmann hitting the vote button like a cowbell.

Fans were booing, but the person yelling “BALL DON’T LIE” was Lonzo’s father. 

Worst stand-up set I ever saw was Sarah Silverman who was the main headliner of a comedy festival. Despite the premium price tickets for a heavily promoted event in a large, stylish theatre, she basically treated it like a walk thru practice session of old material everyone already knew very well. It was all incredibly…

The thing about the Astros is that they always try to walk it in.

These routines actually make sense if you consider that Steven Spielberg was inspired to make Schindler’s List after he saw Cedric Ceballos win the 1992 Slam Dunk contest.

As ridiculous as Cuban’s take is, the image of Kyrie Irving taking a class taught by Slavoj Zizek amuses me.

She’s a phenomenal writer. The sentences are so lean, the observations acute, the subjectivity misanthropic. If the best art is troubling she compels us to question the stability of everything - simple manners, social conventions, the emotional shit we sell to ourselves - all gilded in dark humour. I can’t say enough…

Haha, users with glib handles modeled after genocidal maniacs acting as self-appointed arbiters of moral authority on a sports blog! 

Xherdan Shaqiri: BIGGEST MIDGET IN THE GAME

Tough draw for Arsenal.

Ha, GSP is an Oilers fan too.

Ok, here we go (rubs hands furiously):

If you consider that Dybala played internationally with Higuain this really isn’t all that bad.

It’s actually not surprising that Pacers fans would play for a draw.

A total unforgiving and unrelenting sociopath, Michael Jordan got so mad he called the directors of the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame and demanded that he be allowed to deliver his induction speech again just so that he can include Malik Monk.

The wife and I went to a nice restaurant on a beautiful summer evening and ordered a bottle of rosé to go with both our meal and sunset. It was the Miraval and it was excellent.

There’s no proper English translation (and its quite cool actually), but Thomas Müller as “Der Raumdeuter” means “The Space Invader Who Kicks People In The Head”.

Ashley Young actually came in to make a very nice cross on Rashford’s goal. He also excelled as the starting left back for an England squad that went all the way to the semis in the World Cup. Despite his advancing age he’s not the joke some people insist he is. Coming in as a substitute in a relatively meaningless…

My takeaway from this blog is that people call you “Bert”.
