I have no interest in soccer but Billy’s articles trashing MLS are the best.

I dunno, Haisley’s article suggests that they’re sending their best.

Idiotic article but there is no questioning that a 70th ranked player would usually not get this sort of coverage. What I would have really loved was if she was American. Then we could see if a 70th ranked pretty white face got covered more than the dominant Serena Williams.

Good points. It is about perspectives, I think. I grew up in a rough community, and people who don’t know I’m from there are always like, “Ew, I would never go there, because I’d never come out.” But, like, to me it’s just (unfortunately) home and it’s weird to think somebody (much less most people) would be weary of…

With Matt Forte, Josh McCown, and Marquess Wilson, the Jets are really trying to capture that old “2013 Chicago Bears-Marc Trestmann-5-Game-Mid-Season-Winning-Streak” magic.

Now give the Bears a chance.

Marquess Wilson was, once upon a time, the Chicago Bears’ perennial 3rd WR that the fans were supposed to be excited about during camp every year.

Kushner has had sex with Trump’s daughter, something Trump can only dream of.

Also, somehow Jared Kushner looks like a breathing Madame Tussaud version of Jared Kushner.
