And he said it to the refs face. What's that saying about umpires? The magic word for ejection isn't 'fuck', 'shit,' or 'damn', it's 'you.'

That was my first thought too! Something like this?

People who follow the NFL want to extend its problems to soccer... sorry it doesn't apply.

Actually, reverse the boss/employee roles in your example and that's exactly what Kluwe says was going on in Minnesota.

Okay:

Even if a head injury like this doesn't limit his playing career, it could have a big impact on his quality of life in later years. Ex-NFL players who are in the "three or more club" of concussions have a dramatically increased rate of depression, parkinsons and alzheimers. Remember athletes, a bleeding brain is about…

Oh, Mom, you'll never understand hip hops.

It will take a nation of millions to hold me back.

I agree, and I think a complementary effort could made in expanding youth soccer out of the tony 'burbs and into neighborhoods that are more diverse racially and economically. It's such a cheap game to play, equipment-wise (a big part of its worldwide appeal), but for some reason America has priced participation way…

I think footwork was a problem, but not taking a good first step was probably caused by a misjudgment of the ball's trajectory and/or having his vision screened. I see a similar misjudgment in Tim Howard's first steps toward the Christiano assist, sort of like "I can get there, no I can't , reset on the line, oh god…

No, a referee would ask "did the hand play the ball or did the ball play the hand?" If you cover your crotch for a free kick and take a shot to the hand/nuts that's not a handball.

Exactly. This is an awareness campaign, not a World Cup protest. DV likely experiences an uptick around the holidays, when stress and alcohol use also spike. Spreading awareness of these trends helps bring an end to a culture of silence and ignorance, and empowers TV viewers to become a part of the solution.

Tins of dip literally have a warning label that says it is not a safe alternative to smoking.

I-calls?

No, I like your comment, I'm mocking the comments I've seen re: flopping over the last few days, often from people who couldn't explain the offside rule.
