nah, its simpler. If you’re still pro-Trump, or honestly were ever pro-Trump, you’re just a selfish prick.

Leicester is more like if the Montgomery Biscuits won the World Series this year in terms of the talent gap and payment.

I don’t know man, it’s like pitchers have two completely different wind-ups and take advantage of having no men on base to incorporate more leg movement for more speed/less arm strain... jackass

As one life long Pens fan to another, SHUT THE FUCK UP! The Preds have a great fan base and it’s been just 15 years since the Pens were gonna hightail to KC. Lets just enjoy winning and beating a great team with great fans. We don’t need to denigrate them, we just won for pete’s sake.

you from central PA, with family from NY? Only way this makes sense

If you actually went through the playoffs and used a robot to look instead of a biased fan lens, I bet 50/50 calls were split pretty damn close to 50/50

woah, boo all you want but Crosby definitely earned the Conn-Smythe this year (obviously not last)

exactly. no amount of hand checking is keeping KD from shooting over them or Lebron from getting to the rim.

Yeah but even fat Shaq was quick. Young Shaq would still clean house. Dude was nimble and could pass. The Magic started the spread it and shoot system with Shaq and Penny. Don’t you forget.

Thank you

In Central PA/Eastern PA and most of the East, the club teams are the elite places but guys still play for their HS teams. I assume it’s like that in much of the midwest as well where football dominates.

I think Billy meant pay-to-play clubs in the middle school forward areas. He’s still full of shit because most high school coaches are the guidance counselors. Soccer doesn’t have a transfer rich “private” school academies like other sports. The pay to play in the ODP and club levels is where the best soccer is. It’s…

Thank you! The hockey comments are a lot like reading soccer comments. It’s a ton of people who have never played or especially refereed the game. They have no clue what’s going on during the play.

I’m gonna do my best Bill Simmons here. You know who Crosby reminds me of? Just a little? Chris Paul. Phenomenal talent, great passer, considered a whiny, dirty player. Teams figured out the way to beat Chris Paul was to chip him through screens, elbow him, grab, push and beat him up. CP whined to get those calls and…

Classic crossface to get out of a deep single leg take down. Any Western PA resident could tell you that

Seriously how does this bullshit get out of the grays?

I think go fucking yourself would be a more appropriate way to protest FreeRon’s comment. Moron

Well he’s obviously getting that George Soros money

This is a genuinely well written article. I generally comment on takes or general soccer knowledge that I don’t agree with in Billy’s articles but this was just really good.

“Agenda Deadspin is pushing” as opposed to what?
