We don’t talk enough about the yellow on yellow violence epidemic that’s prevalent in racing culture.

By the way, if Deadspin had a whole vertical dedicated to side by side comparisons of local announcers calls of big plays, I wouldn’t object.

As others pointed out, it’s not tolerated at all in the minors/hs. For me to fully try and explain why fighting is not only tolerated but needed, I would need a few hours. It comes down to this, guys don’t run other guys when they know they have to answer the bell for it. It creates space for the more skilled…

Fighting isn’t allowed in high school hockey (although it wouldn’t shock me if it was tolerated in philly). The real question is why, in hockey culture, beating the shit out of the other team is considered a reasonable reaction to being blown out 7-1.

It’s only the pros and major junior leagues which allow it. College, high school, youth, etc. are immediate ejections plus suspension.

Spoiler Alert: Human Beings are harmful in general, regardless of whether or not they believe in a higher power.

I blame Philadelphia

That video is the most Philly thing ever.

Honest question: Would the revenue lost from NWSL actually cause the USSF to budge at all?

I am admittedly ignorant of the financials here, but it seems like if the gripe is, ‘we aren’t making enough money!’, backing out of the one competition that is barely scraping by from a monetary standpoint is pointless.

Wouldn’t…

Yeah, going on a strike is a great idea for a league that has exactly one team (Portland at 16k) that pulls as much as the men — and that still being less than 17 out of the 20 men’s teams — and 60% of which can’t pull 5k per game. Seriously, great idea.

If you want to make more money, then you need to generate more revenue.

And yet the airline industry has some of the slimmest profit margins of ANY industry. They rarely break 2%.

This is kind of a pointless exercise if 80% of the jeans listed are various fits of Levi’s. It would be far more constructive to recommend five different brands of jeans and leave the individual style up to the readers. Now that four of the five options are from the same company this is really just asking people which…

Uhh.. no. Do us all a favor and read your drivers handbook again before getting back behind the wheel. First of all the Sequoia had not traveled far enough in the center lane to lawfully change lanes again. Secondly, just because they are signalling does not give them the right to the lane they wish to change to, the…

You are supposed to check for vehicles in the lane you are trying to merge, signal your intention to merge, and then allow any vehicle already in the lane to make space for you to merge (if such space is not available, wait). The white SUV did not do the last part and tried to muscle its way in , hence it got pulled…

Just because you turn your blinker on, doesn’t mean you can go where ever you want. You still have to wait for there to be room to merge. If you don’t see anything wrong with what he did, you should go back to drivers ed and stay off the road in the meantime.

Um no, a signal light does not give the driver the right to cut in, drive through or turn into anything.

Do you need a hug?

Well, I don't buy 5.1 music. But I watch a LOT of movies and TV shows with 5.1 audio. I think that is the real reason for all of this...most people spend a lot more time using their receivers for home theater purposes than or listening to music. Most of the music I listen to is in my car or on my iPhone and in both…

I did read the article...and I just re-read it after seeing your comment to see if I had read it incorrectly. They didn't test the SX 1980 against anything "very high end". They tested it against one of the better mid-level (mainstream) home theater receivers and a run-of-the-mill mid-level HT receiver.
