Spain just upset Canada in the Algarve Cup. North American misery loves company.

My parents blew my college savings to buy me a 1998 Dodge Avenger. Six awful years later, its entire electrical system died in a hotel parking lot in New Orleans. A mechanic got the engine going—and pretty much nothing else—and I limped it three hours home straight into the lot of a car dealership. I got $300 trade-in…

US Soccer is a private company. That’s the defense they’re going with when enforcing limits on speech. Just because they have “United States” in their name, that doesn’t make them any more representative of the United States than US Bank or US Airways.

I mean, shit, the national anthem wasn’t even our national anthem for anything until, what, 1931?

If you watch the video, the woman freaking out in photo 2 has apparently caught video of the dunk on her phone. Which means there’s a low-angle clip of this dunk from her phone somewhere out there in the interwebs.

I tried NewsBlur on and off for a couple years after Reader went away, always on the insistence of others, and always hated its slow, overloaded interface compared to Old Reader, Feedly, and InoReader. (I also hated Ino’s interface until a couple years ago.)

Agreeing with all the Inoreader fans in here, especially if you want Reader’s social features.

People removed ties and swilled Corona Lights as the United States Women’s National Team played Germany on a large TV. I chatted with a rep from an advanced football-stats startup while all around me, everyone happily ignored the game.

Oh man! Yeah there are still fights.

I think (and I might have couched the point too well) that the NWHL is already pretty good hockey. I wouldn’t say I’m a casual fan—I’ve been pretty deep into watching at least ECHL hockey for about 15 years, and briefly also helped cover it for local news—but it also isn’t my #1 sport.

“I’d quit if the hockey paid $40,000 a year,” she said.

tl;dr: It’s in the NHL’s interest to acknowledge the NWHL, and potentially even for teams to invest in NWHL teams, but not to invest in the league. NHL’s money, time, and resources are much better spent catching up to other sports’ investments in development so that the talent on the ice can support a larger league.

Giffords has already told his weak ass to go to his goddamned meetings: http://q13fox.com/2017/02/23/gabby-giffords-urges-dave-reichert-and-other-members-of-congress-to-resume-town-halls/

Black men in the US convicted of rape without DNA tests that would clear them do need help clearing their names. If she actually cares about a broken justice system around sex crimes, and even specifically false accusations against men, she doesn’t need to go to Sweden to address something that isn’t a fucking problem…
