If you’re particularly “gritty” and old school, smoking the keeper in the face on purpose happens from time to time. But, like baseball, your keeper needs to be ready for retaliation.

Best unit of high school gym class hands down. I went to a small school and there was BUZZ about the handball tournament. Fighting broke out during games

I don’t think I’ve ever seen something before that makes me think “soccer and hockey goalies have it easy”

This is a sport I need to learn more about, like Rugby and Australian Rules Football.

In my barrio, this is handball. Orale.

That is one of the great things about the Olympics, exposing people to sports they did not know about.

From the Olympic Events Ranked article: “The hypothetical team of Steph Curry, James Harden, Kawhi Leonard, LeBron James, and Anthony Davis sitting at home will be looking pretty good...”

There’s a reason we don’t compete. The US hasn’t embraced contraband enhanced sports just yet. Instead of tables full of Gatorade on the sideline, it’s a boxes of glass roses and non-detergent Choreboy.

I’ll assume that I haven’t heard of this because ‘MURRICA hasn’t been competitive in the sport, (or the Alzheimer’s is really kicking in), and we haven’t been able to see it televised yet - THANKS NBC, you assholes. Fun to watch!

I’d definitely watch soccer that doesn’t deny the great evolutionary advantage of opposable thumbs.

I wondered why it suddenly got so sunny, but now I see where all of the shade went.

That’s because this is Center City. If you want overweight, mouth-breathing, Santa-booing slobs, you’d have to go to Northeast Philly or South Jersey.

I called the mayor’s office for further clarification. They said:

I don’t see a single not-disgusting person anywhere.

For me, it’s certain songs within children’s movies. Like, Kenny Loggins’ “Return to Pooh Corner” is devastating. Right in my kids’ wheelhouses when they were young. Tearing up right now thinking about it, and my kids are 20 and 18.

I am 30 and 5 minutes of Dumbo can ruin my immediate life.

Having a kid totally messes you up. Just about any sappy commercial or movie with emotional moments between a parent and their kid will now tug at my heart strings. And when I see stuff like that poor Syrian boy who drowned (which is, objectively, tragic) it takes all my will power to not lose it.

I never used to cry, and not because I am some macho “real men don’t cry” type, I just never felt the urge to cry. After having kids, I cry all the fucking time. It’s ridiculous. I was crying just the other night describing something that I had cried about a couple weeks earlier.

Things that hit me like a truck in terms of emotions:
