The frustrating part for me is that football was declining for the right reasons before the protests - decreasing participation, players quitting young to protect their health, the overall sleaze of the league, the poor product, oversaturation etc.

Then the protests started and now the mouth breathers can claim credit…

And yet all this kneeling is what is killing football...

He didn’t even linger on top of Foles for a second after making the tackle.  Not even enough time to kinda reach down and see if the rumors are true, not even just a little graze along the inner thigh, just to see, nothing weird, but just a brush with the back of the hand to see if you can feel something alive; like I…

Attitudes about military service and athletes getting waivers started to change in 2002 when the Korean team went to the semis of the World Cup. Also the baseball team that won the gold medal in 2008 in the Beijing Olympics (Hyun Jin Ryu, currently on the Dodgers, was on that team) got military draft exemptions as…

USA players will be distraught to learn that winning in the next few years means that they have to go fight in the middle east.

From what I understand, the national mood on that has shifted somewhat in recent years. Koreans understand that the country is better served having him winning glory on the pitch than condemned to pointless thumb-twiddling desk duty for two years. No one wanted to see his athletic prime wasted like that (because he…

That’s normal for this type of competition; looks like the Asian Games have the same eligibility as the Olympics, where each team is allowed 3 exceptions to the under-23 rule.

Not a brake light. It flashes when the car is using the hybrid system to recover energy. It also flashes constantly in the rain.

The light at the back of an F1 car is for safety reasons. It is turned on for the whole duration of a wet weather race so the driver following can see there is a car ahead through all the spray.
During a dry race, you can see the light turned on intermittently during a lap. This is not serving the purpose of a brake…

FWIW, it’s not really a brake light. There are a few different situations where the LEDs in the back come on. It does often come on during braking because apparently it comes on when the car is no longer deploying energy from its batteries, but in a crash there’s probably a dozen different things that could set it…

People who hate helmets end up wearing halos anyway.

“Beadle’s job is to host what is basically the sports equivalent of The View, and that does not require her to be able to explain the intricacies of a zone blocking scheme or break down a jet sweep. She’s there to guide discussions about narratives and broad storylines, which she can do just fine without watching…

You are on to something. Thats why kickers and punters are rolling in the dough. 

The top eight names on that list—Matt Ryan, Kirk Cousins, Jimmy Garoppolo, Matt Stafford, Derek Carr, Drew Brees, Andrew Luck, Alex Smith, in that order...

Unfortunately, there are two competing philosophies at play here.

I remember an old news story about a small town police chief who made his officers take a class in vocabulary and grammar because he never wanted to see another crime report that said, “The victim’s hand was decapitated.”

Did you know the unwritten rules are unwritten? And a lot of them are shit moves?

Suspending Ureña isn’t enough for something this egregious. Baseball should really come down hard on the Marlins for this - for punishment they should put someone like Derek Jeter in charge of the team.

I can’t wait tilde next time they meet
