I heard he also provided quarter for several British Soldiers.

Twitter Knee Jerks are all pro-business until a business decides to act in its own self-interest. Weird, right?

Plank makes a great point. If Silver had any sense of decency, he'd have brought down the hammer on Donte Stallworth a long time ago.

You have to qualify first by beating the qualifying time threshold in your age bracket in another recognized marathon. For under 35 the men's qualifying time was 3 hours 5 minutes, +30 for women. First round they take all the applicants that beat the qualifying time by 20 minutes, if not full then those that beat it…

Won't someone think of the adult tumblers ...

It is never ok to treat human beings as less than human beings. Never. Getting desperate people to do things for little or no compensation in the hopes of someday getting something better is not an excuse, it's pretty much the textbook definition of exploitation.

Thank you for understanding what the media and comments do not. The talk of the "rules" is to prove these women are employees. Nobody is saying the rules are illegal, but the wages are definitely.

It sounds pretty bad, but the Bills are going to throw their best defense at this, so there's no chance the cheerleaders won't win.

interestingly enough, Indianapolis just opened up with 2 home games for their new NASL franchise and both were sell outs of roughly 11,500 each. That may not seem like much, but it's been a pleasant surprise for a city that's never really taken to any kind of professional soccer club in the past. don't know what…

No. Relegation only works in other countries because there are so many teams so close together, most of which are playing in large legacy stadiums they could never afford to build new today. It's the product of having too many "good" teams in a sport that is perfectly fine with a total lack of parity, so they need to…

I don't think the dilution of quality issue is really that pressing, to be honest. Sure, in the immediate future the expansion franchises may not be great, though I know NYCFC is going to spend a ton, and Orlando City (who have great local support by the way) has been linked with Kaka. But I think the real benefit is…

You don't like MLS. We get it.

Personally, when I have no interest on an article I decide not to click on it. But if I do click on it and read it and still have no interest I definitely don't comment about how I clicked on an article which I didn't like from the beginning and still didn't like it after opening said article.

Englishmen go nuts over a British victory whenever a Scot wins an olympic medal.

Possibly, although I am more likely to kill myself on a motorcycle than complete 26.2 miles.

Protip: Don't go on the internet until you've watched the race.

It used to be one of the biggest sporting events in the country, both at the turn of the 20th century and in the 1970s. And talking about the Boston, New York and Philly marathons in the same breath is like comparing the British Open, the Masters and your local muni pro-am.

I actually enjoy Crystal Palace. And when I play Fifa, I use AFC Wimbledon as my career team. Mostly because it's the challenge of getting them to the Premiership.

Chad Quatre-vingt Cinq doesn't quite have the same ring to it
