“They’re trying to become the World Cup. But they’re not even close to being the Little League World Series.”

It’s their culture. Parenting is lacking

Where are the fathers?

Sports?

Wow, what a bunch of THUGS

For a tournament that nobody seems to care about and in which the league responsible for it wants to drop, the WBC looks like it’s been an incredible amount of fun

But without it we wouldn’t get the gross spectacle of a bunch of old white scouts wondering how much to pay for that young fella.

In the sky in the background you can see a plane full of Cardinals piloted by Brian McCann flying in to curb-stomp him.

The catcher with the “Hey ump...what the shit...he threw the bat” and the Ump with the “Have a better pitcher” nod of the head may be better than the bat flip.

Everyone thought the same thing about Marvin Harrison for the same reasons. Then we found out he’s almost certainly a gun toting lunatic.

I laugh a bit when people talk about the Warriors giving up depth to get Durant. They dropped Bogut and Ezeli for Pachulia and McGee.

That’s a bowled observation

Makes perfect sense. Broken tibias are always a calves problem.

That was the same approach to testing at Prime Prep as well.

Ugh. Can we stop using the words overrated/underrated in sports discussions? It’s a meaningless descriptor because it relies on a question of perspective (who is doing this rating) and lacks any reliable measure (what the fuck is properly rated?) 

Instead discussions should focus on relative value, and more…

You mean the same Gronk that the Patriots rolled to Super Bowl victory without for the entire last 2/3 of the season, without missing a beat? The same Gronk that the Pats won their last Super Bowl with while he was an injured, largely incapacitated decoy on the field? Yeah, he’s really important to their success,…

If the Ravens defense could drag Trent Dilfer’s sorry ass to a ring in 2000 and the Broncos terrifying pass rush could drag Peyton Manning’s corpse to one last year, you’re not exactly wrong. You’re not necessarily right, either, but your argument isn’t unreasonable.

“i’ve studied the wolf. he can’t read.”
