Something wrong with Tamlyn Tomita?

She’s an actress.

First thing I noticed, especially about the female characters. The updated animation highlights their ... weeaboo appeal ...

The franchise started making cash only after Johnson showed up? You might be forgetting that Diesel wasn’t in several of the sequels, and didn’t come back until the fourth.

When discussing the “whitewashing” issue, Swindon ended by saying essentially, “BTW, I’m not so bad. I’m working with lots of Asians.” It’s akin to telling me about your “best Black friend.”

You love Miike but think his films are terrible. Okay . . .

WHAT? LOL. No. The absolute wrong way for us to go is to start comparing sports and arguing one is “easier.” It’s one reason that the US lags behind, the idea from decades ago that soccer is “easier” or is for kids who can’t play other sports. The basketball and soccer have different skill sets and different physical

Nah. It will take more than an idealistic gesture.

finding new defensive stars is just another part of Klinsmann’s task.

These players we *think* are terrible? Most of them are. Only Dempsey is really good enough, and he’s on the tail end of his career. Zardes, Yedlin and Jordan Morris can lead the next vanguard if they move to or stay in Europe. Some past results against Mexico when they were not very good is not proof that those

This is really a situation where Klinsmann doesn’t see the mountaintop. Four years is not enough to turn a team from zeroes into heroes, and neither is eight, really. Ostensibly, Klinsmann puts the US in position to be a great international soccer team, but to expect him to take us from where we were to being World

Some of us just can’t get over it. A coach can make a slight difference in some players but rarely can they turn an also-ran into a world-class talent, especially if they’ve already gone through the process. Look at these guys Klinsmann is giving late-career runs in the MNT. He picked them out to play a role in his

All of the Hope Solo Stans abandoned her with a quickness when she married Stevens. Stuck by her through all of her public outbursts until now.

Was this a report or a cheerleader’s diary?

Can we just stop arguing that hip-hip culture is synonymous with Black culture? It’s usually the assumption at the crux of these modern Iggy/Miley is an appropriator think pieces. Probably these ladies don’t even understand this fundamental thing themselves, but hip-hop culture is not “Black” culture. So calling what

Perhaps you have never watched a college basketball game, especially one featuring Duke over the last 20 years. I dunno, go to youtube and search for Duke flop

Seeing that you aren't as good as you thought (or actually better stated, as the hype led you to believe) isn't development as much as it is a reality check. I think in JK's mind, you go overseas and sink or swim. If you swim, welcome to the roster. If you sink, you need to reevaluate your goals and how to reach them.

Shea got no PT because he was always overrated. It was good for him to go overseas and see how average a player he really is. Now he won't feel so bad for being left off the USMNT because there are better options at his position. Same for Agudelo. Our soccer media does a good job of hyping mediocre talent. And when

And if it happened in basketball, which it does, frequently (Duke for the last two decades), you'd be calling it intelligent play.

That's funny, my wife (Japanese) is a fan, though not a huge one. She will admit she's a better actress than most of the tarento and admires her fashion sense, but she's never shown much interest in her career.
