It is a wive’s tale mainly because your fuel sump location is fixed and it always draws from the same spot in the tank, the bottom. A better explanation is that if you live in a climate that varies temperature widely during the day and night, you will get condensation in the fuel tank and the concentration of…

Y’know, the thing about this whole thing that sticks out to me the most is that we’re making such a big deal out of, and drawing so much attention to, one guy’s choice to sit down during a song, whether that was ok to do or not, instead of the very thing that Kaepernick is trying to bring attention to, which is the…

*Obligatory “What are these motherfuckin’ chickens doing on my motherfuckin’ plane?!” reference*

Same. Unless I’m crossing an ocean, I just drive.

As an extra tall man I’ve stopped flying. I just can’t deal with being on a plane for more than an hour at a time. I regularly drive to my destinations, some times as much as 16 hours.

HamNo could be a valuable late round pick as a role player.

A gold medal would be ideal, but it's still nice to finish number two.

I predict he’ll finish no. 2.

What little dignity existed in this ridiculous sport is now completely gone.

Update (9:53 a.m.): Diniz has just collapsed on the course.

Commentator, in crisp English accent: Folks at home may be asking themselves, “How will he finish?” And, well, Depends.

Urinetrouble

the four swimmers spoke to U.S. State Department officials and they agreed to shut up. Almost immediately after the briefing, Lochte “walked across the street” and gave an interview

All night? Completely unnecessary.

If someone locks me out I will lose my damn mind. Much less if it’s because you want to get laid. Not cool regardless of who does it.

The trials were hilarious. She absolutely beats the shit out of everyone in the pool, then finishes 800m and isn’t even breathing hard. Everyone else finishes and looks like they’re ready to pass out.

Full disclosure: I am a track and field coach. What I can’t be, however, is the only one who was shocked to see the 4x400m relays at No. 40 and No. 44, respectively. Even in middle school meets (where the athletes drink soda before a race and need to be reminded to not run with their phones in their pocket), a 4x400m…

Katie Ledecky is better at swimming the 800-meter freestyle than any Olympian has ever been in any event. She is better at swimming the 800-meter freestyle than Usain Bolt is at running the 100. She is better at swimming the 800-meter freestyle than Michael Jordan was at basketball in 1992. Whoever gets silver and…

My reaction to Hillary Clinton’s stance on cybersecurity: I’d like to see this fleshed out more. It’s a little too vague for my tastes and I have concerns about surveillance and government overreach.

First off, we’re so obsolete in cyber. We’re the ones that sort of were very much involved with the creation, but we’re so obsolete, we just seem to be toyed with by so many different countries, already. And we don’t know who’s doing what. We don’t know who’s got the power, who’s got that capability, some people say…
