Ah, cool, thanks! Just getting the “tifo” terminology has now led me down a very satisfying YouTube rabbit hole. Funny that it really is just old school, 3rd-grade level grid drawing enlargement on sewn-together sheets.

The smoke and flames are very impressive, but I’m always fascinated by those giant banners. How are they produced? What are they made out of? Who pays for them? What happens to them after the game? How much planning goes in to one stadium sized banner? How does this all work?
I know it was a total garbage show and I had to practically pin my eyelids open to get through the first season, but Under The Dome also had absolutely atrocious Microsoft/Windows product placement. Just totally laughable. That show was the worst example of PP I’ve ever seen. It seems like whoever’s in charge of these…
Nah, that’s not very absurd... /keeps scrolling... ACK!
Maybe he deleted it, but my favorite was the one where he was compelling his brother to drop a C bomb live on a worldwide TV broadcast. Unfortunately I don’t think Danny went through with it.
I actually disagree with this “it doesn’t matter if they don’t win the finals” sentiment, in this particular case at least. 73 NBA wins is a huge record. Ask any casual fan who’s the last team to win 72, everyone can tell you it was the 95/96 Bulls. That team is immortal in our memories. But ask those same fans who…
I’ve thought a lot about the idea of playing baseball on a football (or soccer) type schedule. It would make each game so intense. You’d basically have one or two or three pitchers, mostly all aces, the whole tenor would change. Mid weeks spent scouting and watching tape and taking BP on that week’s pitcher’s…
Worth doubling up on Draper’s point about sixes vs. home runs (though huge grain of salt as I’m not an expert by any means). If you really WANT to hit a six, it’s not the hardest thing in the world. You can essentially choose to do it, and have a better chance at succeeding than if you choose to hit a home run.…
The images didn’t load initially for me, and I thought “Met Costume” as supposed to be Mr. Met! I’m very disappointed.

Seems like their account could use a few more Sleaford Mods.
Do they even make posters anymore?
That’s actually lefse, not a tortilla (I assume). #ScandinavianPedantry
When a scout at the combine asked me how far I could punt a football.
“...turn flotsam and jetsam into stud receivers.”
Evidence or no, I can’t help but feel that Paul Wellstone’s plane was purposefully downed.
“You need sneakers, boots, dress shoes, and flip-flops.”
Depending on if you have a yard, you also need lawn-mowing sneakers. And preferably a second pair of dress shoes (black and brown). And snow boots, depending on your latitude. So that’s 7, but we can bring it back to 6 because nobody needs flip-flops. Yuck.
