That’s a vastly underrated part of this play. Messi aimed for the short side of the net and did it almost out of nowhere. As soon as he cut in past the defender the goalie moves a half step out toward the far post to cover a curling shot to the far post which is what he’s supposed to do since that’s the more popular…

They’re counting all the times he was brought on as a pinch runner as well.

OSHA may be a pain in the ass, but most of those people would be alive if they were in a civilized country.

I’m all for capitalism and disagree with most of the rhetoric that disparages it. But how any organization can sponsor the World Cup 2022 is mind-blowing.

“Oh shit, he’s really gonna say it.”

I think that Scottish company you listed is going to get sued.

I read this and think of other sudden cardiac deaths and I think of Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy (HCM). This is a heart condition that affects an estimated 1-in-500 people and is characterized by a “thick” and “stiff” heart. The symptoms can vary and, when discovered, the current protocol is to end competitive…

I'm not gonna feign fake outrage or anything, but if you are going to make a joke about a dude dying on the field, at least come with a quality joke.

Your phone can't hold a charge worth crap.

Hi Darren

If he was solid at what he does he wouldn’t be constantly apologizing on Twitter and outing his lame-duck “sources”. And I never thought of myself as jealous, but sure. I’m jealous that he can be paid that much to suck at his job that badly.

Only known photo of Bobby Freedman:

Huh. This post is weirdly coy early on about the fact that Sally Ride was a lesbian.
