Imagine, say, any other president or presidential candidate in this country’s history at that church, that funeral, today.

And on both sides of the Atlantic.

He should meet the White Sox fans!

It’s the Skip Bayless model of broadcast television, applied to the question of whether we do or don’t think that people of African descent should be (or at least deserve to be) property.

I threw my phone against the wall in frustration in the ~85th minute of that match, breaking it. That’s my stupid story about this game.

Are we watching the same highlight of a women’s soccer game in this country with what appears to be a pretty healthy crowd?

Lack of concussions.

As of a few years ago anyway, the NBA had rules preventing teams from creating black alternate jerseys unless it was already part of their color scheme.

Right, my point was mostly that this is in no way indicative of Dempsey’s experience in MLS. The majority of his home games are played in front of 10x this crowd.

Also, not including the early Open Cup games in season ticket packages is dumb.

It’s a midweek game, which season tickets don’t count towards (the Sounders have about 30k season ticket holders), with only about three weeks’ notice to sell tickets. They figure a cozy, compact stadium is better than even say 20k in a football stadium. And the Sounders don’t own their stadium, so sometimes there…

Eh. The Sounders average larger crowds than Tottenham in the regular season.

Starfire Sports Complex, the Sounders’ training facility that they use for Open Cup matches.

I envy fanbases whose teams have modes other than dumb and embarrassing. - Jets fan.

Now seems like a good time to remind everyone that if not for the Red Sox, the Cardinals would have two more titles over the past 11 seasons. So I believe some thanks-*everyone tells me to shut the fuck up*

I haven’t seen it in cans or bottles; I’ve had it on tap at their brewery.

Well, yes.

Not to get all Peter King here, but Allagash White is another good example of a wheat beer that doesn’t suck. I’ve also enjoyed Rohrbach’s Soul of Wit, but that’s pretty local to me.

I used to be able to get off to this stuff, but it doesn’t do it for me anymore. I need something...more extreme.

Don’t be silly: you can’t have a shock without a charge!
