This checks out.

Oh I’m sure he does wish he would have dunked, but I give Iguodala a little more credit because it was on a high speed break and I’m not sure he knew how close LeBron was (answer: he’s always close enough).

If I’m being generous, it’s a 5% chance of posterizing James, 75% chance of getting blocked like a schoolboy bitch, and 20% chance of death by severed skeleton structure.

Can someone with more basketball knowledge than myself (I played one season of intramural, and once attempted a layup that hit the underside of the rim) tell me why in the Hell any person on the planet would attempt a dunk when they can visibly see LeBron fucking James bearing down on them?

It’s not that he’s necessarily wrong. Yeah, having them both agree on a plan would be fucking great. But the problem is that it’s a Miss America-esq answer to a really important question coming from the President of the United States, not Caitlin Upton.

It’s probably a dumb anecdote because it’s from Remember The Titans, but this conversation was honestly the first thing I thought of when I saw how “concerned” the neighbors were and the WHAT ABOUT THE CHILDREN:

I’m pretty sure “If you were unaware of the simple, indisputable fact that soccer is the best sport” is meant to stir the pot.

Hmm

You are correct. Apologies!

It would never happen, but it would be interesting to see Sanchez in a Liverpool shirt as another option on that front line because he seems like he would fit seamlessly in the high pressing game.  

Dortmund could have used anyone not named Nicklas Bendtner to finish off those open looks.

Yeah I wouldn’t hate that, although it’s probably a rare enough occasion where the rules committee doesn’t even feel like it needs be addressed. I guess it’s one of those quirks that are in place to make sure the game is as fluid as possible without stoppages, and it’s always been that way.

Unlucky for Lewo? Absolutely. Still a foul? Absolutely.

Wrong on two accounts!

To me, that it was unintentional does not excuse it for being a foul. Koscielny snuck in and got a toe on the ball and was kicked. Foul. Like I said, still sucks for Lewo, but I get it. There was a similar incident a few years ago when Martin Skrtel - then of Liverpool (oh how I do not miss those days) - tried to…

Ah my mistake.

I mean it sucks for Lewandowski, but you kind of have to call that.

Lewandoski was attempting to clear a ball, juggled once and then tried to volley it away, but Sanchez snuck up behind him and got a touch to the ball and Lewandoski’s swing of the leg hit him instead.

Regarding the bag of ice situation, there is only one correct method:

I beleive Ben Davies is still wandering around Anfield like a lost puppy.
