Out tomorrow on what....?

A wiser man than I summed him up best- Gladwell writes books for people who don’t read books.

He’ll address those inconsistencies in his upcoming book, Not Only Just the Tip-ping Point

Joe Paterno knew in the 70s that Sandusky was raping kids. Forty goddamned years as an assistant to JoePa with Joe knowing that this guy was raping kids and he did nothing.

It’s not Joe Pa’s fault — after spending 10,000 hours ignoring the issue, he had become so good at it as to be second nature.

That’s totally devastating. How could they possibly win with those three scrubs in their midfield?

The sure bet is to put money on PSG embarrassing themselves at some point during CL.  

And yet... would anyone actually put money on PSG?  They can’t defend either.  If the over-under were 3.5 on this, I’d bet the over and Real to get a result.

He lasted these last few years as the starter primarily because of the organizational and cultural defects that define the Giants, a team that reveres good and bad traditions equally and holds a grim patrician stodginess as its central ideological tenet. They didn’t want to change because they never really want to…

Gruden looked at the situation and punted the ball away. The Raiders had given up.

The anti-analytics streak in football (and previously in baseball, although that’s mostly been beaten to death in the majors) really is weird. I get coaches being conservative because it’s easier to notice someone screwing up than just going along with the groupthink, but you would think that owners, who probably all…

The irony of Mike Lombardi calling someone else “the dumbest man in football” is extremely enjoyable.

Move far away from that MiL. And when visiting, stay in a hotel. Do NOT let them host you. If they come visit, hopefully they’re well behaved. If not, put them into a hotel.

Wait till you have kids.

They have to say, “football” because if they just say, “ball” it could mean testicles and that would be gay.

The NFL has always taken itself far too seriously, and in fact the problem has gotten even worse now that people know the game really has proven fatal to its participants.

The correct answer to the most underrated 90's band is either The Offspring or Stone Temple Pilots thank you.

Mannschaft Shafts Man

You have to feel for ter Stegen. This happens far too frequently in international football; the old guard getting undeserved caps over more deserving players who are just slightly younger. It is more frustrating in this case considering Low should have been fired after the 2018 WC. It wasn’t just the results, it was th…

Stuff like this reminds me of the dot com crash of the late 90s so much. Companies getting massive valuations based on ridiculous assertions and huge losses. At some point the market will correct and wipe them out. Its audacious that anyone has argued that this is a tech company, and shows that words are meaningless…
