Remember, the list included in this article is for affordability, defined as the relationship between wedding cost and median income in the county. Cost of living was not a factor. Median income in No. Va is astronomical. Ergo, the cost of the wedding relative to it is going to be low. That's why the other list…

"If you don't listen to the police you basically have given up your right to life." I'm confused by this.
Disagree. The check that Raul Julia cashed was actually pretty bad-ass.
It is not a grammatical error. Please see the following, including the requisite reference to dictionaries:
I like that you chose to focus on incidental stuff I got wrong to not question your own assumptions.
Sigh. The athletes are not the customers. That's like saying people that buy newspapers are the customers of a newspaper. That gets the economic model all wrong. People that buy newspapers are the product; the advertisers are the customers. That model has been in place before the internet, and the internet has used…
"No one" really? That was the most predictable humiliation ever, and I say that as someone who rejects the "Peyton-Manning-is-a-choker" analysis of his career.
It was a beautiful duel, quite worthy of remembrance.
One of the most telling symptoms of narcissism is the inability to ascribe agency to the other. It's essentially a lack of empathy, but more important than that, it means that others don't really make a difference: only the narcissist matters; only the narcissist can succeed (or fail). When a country of narcissists…
"He is renowned."
Ian Darke is good. When people were talking about the possibility of Gus Johnson calling the World Cup, and there were discussions of who great announcers were, I was always surprised that people didn't mention Gary Thorne. He and Bill Clement did NHL calls for ESPN years ago and he was amazing. He had such energy and…
Because much of the writing about soccer is from British writers; American writers who only pay attention to soccer feel that the British way of dealing with collective nouns is "because soccer" and not due to a systematic way of dealing with certain nouns. These American writers adopt the affectation of using a…
Everyone needs to remember this: Ann Coulter is one of the most successful trolls ever. She is a professional troll. Regular people (i.e., younger than 50) know not to feed the trolls. Don't feed the trolls, please.
Davis was not the person to start; nor was Bedoya the person to replace him; nor was Zusi the person to take off for Yedlin. Yedlin should have come in earlier, in place of Davis.
Bradley is playing very well whenever he's not on the ball. When he's racing towards opponents and covering and taking angles away, he's been good. As soon as the ball touches his feet, he's been terrible. If he were a golfer, we'd say he was getting the yips, right? It's uncanny the way he's playing right now—as long…
Can you please not call it "soccer formatting"? This is a facet of the natural variation of languages, and in particular of "British English" and "American English" (among the other Englishes of the world...). It's not "soccer formatting." It is, purely and simply, a feature of one dialectical variation of English…
Though some people with less of an understanding of language variation will say it's due to soccer, they are incorrect. The grammar has to do with the way standard British English treats "collective" nouns. For example, in standard British English, it is grammatical to say:
Agreed. Jermaine Jones was priceless for us today.
Favorite Line: "She's just mad because a house fell on her sister."
