The estate of Steve Goodman thanks the Cubs for ensuring his grandkids go to nicer colleges.

Yet, *my* restraining order says I can’t send her any gifts.

Well, the value of a PK goal is so high that the risk is worth the reward.

They streamed every single one of their games on YouTube. Everything is linked from the NWSL website.

Solo previously played in Sweden. They have one of the top 3 Euro leagues for women, so it’s not a big surprise she would be there (though she did just have surgery).

Actually, not that many went to Europe in 2011 or 2012. Rapinoe did; Krieger was already there. Heath went in 2013 when NWSL was already formed. No one else from the 2011 WWC squad went over.

Because the new evidence is that this tradition has continued, perhaps up to today. So this wasn’t a “one time thing back in 2012.”

No sports scholarships at Harvard.

There are a number of fraternities and sororities at Harvard (along with final clubs), but they aren’t officially recognized by the school.

Those players are nothing, but Jezebels, tempting our fine boys with their feminine wiles...

At the end of the day, you should do another blog post comparing the comments on the Deadspin vs. Jezebel posts. Should be “interesting.”

Harvard doesn’t offer athletic scholarships. That doesn’t mean they might be on some other form of financial aid, but it’s not officially for being an athlete.

It’s a bit of a Catch-22. The players have a CBA that rewards them more for being in the US if a league is available (and that wasn’t always the case) and for playing together as much as possible. Playing overseas means they aren’t seen as often, are harder to scout and have to adhere to much stricter.

A private conversation documented and shared among team members (and likely others) for at least 4 years. And posted on a forum that was publicly accessible.

They tend to involve teenage hookers or underage girls or someone else’s wife.

I had wondered about the flooding the twitter fakery, but 2 years is a really long con for not much gain. If it was 2 months ago... sure. But even Back to the Future made a Cubs prediction and they were only off by a year.

Soap irritates the hell out of my urethra. Not explaining to the doctor again why I have blood in my urine sample.

I think he was also the starting 2nd baseman for the Chicago Cubs.

How would you like to be that supervisor?

Former Marine. This is considered the “walk on the wild side” cut.
