Fascinating read about the radar plume. Thanks for posting the link!

I've heard it could take a nuclear shock wave plus it has its own atmosphere if necessary (chem attacks and such) which is all fine and good. Questions is, can you hoon it?

Well done, sir!

I get the feeling the letter Qatar sent to Craggs has done nothing but stir up the Deadspin staff. You guys routinely put out quality work that is even better when you're properly motivated. Can't wait to see what you guys turn up on these bozos. Dick pics of Blatter? Jack Warner with ten dead hookers? Its all in…

I agree. You don't see Rio pissing and moaning because they can't host the Winter Olympics. Then again, folks over in the UAE don't exactly seem to think things through all the way. If they did, I dont think they would have a line of shit tankers waiting outside their tallest building to haul waste away every.…

About the only thing I can agree with Blatter on is the "bringing soccer to other countries because the anglo countries don't own soccer" line. I get that. However, where do you draw a line? Is bringing a game to an atypical soccer country worth the lives of 4,000 people? I hope he used a lot of that bribe money…

Diabetes is a bitch, you guys; especially if you are into the whole not taking care of your body thing.

Ive always loved that about our country. When the shit hits the fan everyone looks our way like, "Well, you boys going to do something about this?" And we, like the bad asses we are, always respond with, "Everyone chill the eff out. We got this."

Ha! Before Fat Harry's in New Orleans got all classy after their fire, the following sonnet (lymerick?) was scrawled on their bathroom wall:

Love this! I was lucky to attend a Sporting KC home game last year and the experience was pretty awesome. The quality is getting better as is the watchability. Plus, with Youth Soccer being so popular amongst the, well, youth, and with less and less parents allowing their children to play football, we might well be…

Still better than Mr. Pound playing the bassoon, imho.

Or the part where the three year old refuses to let the six month old sleep because he needs a playmate. "WAKE UP SISTER! I WANT TO PLAY!!" Ten minutes into what would have been a one hour nap so the six month old angel becomes a cranky beast child.

I'll be the envy of all my pals when I buy this and wear it.....to the golf course.

You read my mind!

You hit it on the head (at least from my point of view)! In New Orleans, we tend to turn "water" into "wata", just like in Boston with the whole Cahhhh (car) thing. Not sure one is right over the other, its just how folks speak.

Its just a thing in that type of Spanish. Its really prevalent in Buenos Aires too. Took me a while to get used to it.

Keep in mind too, a lot of the kerfuffle over the proposed terrorist attacks on Sochi emanated from the caucuses, which have historically been oppressed by Mother Russia due to their ethnic makeup. My statements here are a gross simplification of that particular problem but, overall, Russia is pretty terrible when it…

So true. I once worked at a firm where everyone was salaried and everyone worked about 55-60 hours a week. Of course, you only got paid for the 40; no OT. However, if you wanted to peace out a little early for a ball game or a meeting in town every now and then the death stares I would get from my boss were unreal.…

How is Russia not Second or in a 1a/1b situation with Germany? Guess ol Drew just glossed over the whole "Stalin's Execution Squads" portion of his Russian history class.

How late can you arrive to work and how early can you leave before you get reprimanded/fired for it?
