omg NFL homer fans...

Nope 10 second runoff is the right call. Detroit doesn’t get a free timeout and chance to run another play just because they kinda sorta got close.

“Whatever we do, we’re going to do 100 (wait what’s 52/53?) Whatever we do, we’re going to do 98 percent.”

Someone needs to tell Villanueva that he’s part of a TEAM and shouldn’t make this about himself.

If you don’t understand why respecting the anthem is important to the people who are getting beers/in the bathroom during the anthem, I dunno what to tell you.

And god knows all the people who NEED the anthem before domestic sports games to RENEW THEIR PATRIOTISM on a weekly basis are gonna be livid.

I don’t know that it’s intended as an escalation, but I think it comes across as one, in that it’s more dramatic and noticeable than kneeling. At the least, it puts us one step closer to just doing away with pregame anthems.

What makes you think that would make any difference? The majority of them probably couldn’t even tell you why players are taking a knee other than they hate troops, Jesus, and heterosexuals.

I thought I wanted everyone to kneel, then I saw Ray Lewis doing it. So, apparently, I wanted everyone, but Ray Lewis to kneel.

America has a right to be fearful of North Korean belligerence. Does no one remember 60 odd years ago when Korea invaded America and killed 20% of its population???? Wake up sheeple.

And like that Arturo becomes “Arthur.”

I’d like to extend my sympathy to the White Sox on their embarrassment:

ja ja ja ja.

Ridiculous. Lou Holtz doesn’t speak English at all.

Gillette stadium is 40 miles from Boston. Google says that’s an hour and 6 minutes. No one complains about how far away it is from the city. And Santa Clara isn’t any less prestigious or harder to get to than Foxboro. The distance is not the problem.

San Jose 49ers.

Deadspin: We Actually Don’t Know Shit About Even Our Favorite Sports Teams

I mean jeebus, if you think this stadium is depressing, wait till the Chargers’ 30,000 capacity venue looks just as empty.

Seems dumb for a stadium named “Levi’s” not to have a section 501.

Lol, Grape Nuts are the only way to eat large quantities of cat food without dying.
