80% of these guys are straight up long term projects. Yet teams have just 4 years to develop them. Some teams will find some steals when they sign these guys as FA’s to their 2nd contract. I love the NBA but boy is it’s structure fucked up.

the Brexit panic already has Europeans fleeing to take jobs from hard working Americans I see.

Lower skills. Lower ceiling.

If a honk startles another driver into an accident, maybe that driver shouldn’t be driving at all. What happens if loud sirens startle that driver?

What happens if that happens now?

#Honkghazi?

Will it honk at old people who take roughly 40,000 light years to cross the road?

It will also honk at any bumper stickers that say “Honk if you want to kill all humans”

There is no opportunity for fans to ever get creative in any major American sport, the teams’ staff has such a hard on about their playlists during stoppages. You’ll never have traditions started like soccer songs or Swing Low Sweet Chariot because anytime there is 15 seconds of silence they hit the damn charge horn…

Let different sports be different. I love a raucous crowd, but I much prefer quiet to tinny arena-manufactured noise. You used to be able to cheer at an NBA game but now what’s the point? Arenas play instrumentals while the ball is in play, then the PA really goes ballistic when it’s not. All I can do is sit back and…

Serena Williams is amazing. She won her first major in 1999. Sixteen years ago! And now she's making a run at a grand slam. It's hard to think of too many athletes who have remained so dominant for so long. Tim Duncan? Kareem Abdul-Jabbar? Peyton Manning? Babe Ruth?

I think it’s a little over-ambitious to expect non-British people to understand the nuances of Crown dependencies and bailiwicks...

First of all, it’s not unranked but unseeded. Secondly, after a number of incidents when a very emotional and at times frenzied crowd overreacted to shots played during a rally, Serena rightly asked the umpire to caution the crowd against such outbursts during points. It was then that the crowd booed her. And it was…

I would say it was noticeably louder than usual and so by definition “Unusual”. Tennis crows can be twats at times and they sometimes get carried away probably for the reasons you wrote...

Watson had her on the ropes, the crowd kept being too loud and Serena complained. They booed her and that was the turning point after Watson couldn’t convert in that game up a break to serve for the match.

Hate to be the pedantic Brit but Guernsey is not part of England (or even the UK), it’s one of the Channel Islands.
