But it wasn’t a bullshit call. Her coach was coaching. She saw him coaching. Coaching is illegal whether it’s enforced every single time it happens or not. Giving a player a warning for breaking the rules in no way qualifies as bullshit even if you personally think they should let more things slide in a final. Ramos…

There’s nothing more New York than a rich person treating the subway as if it were for the rats. Everybody with options chooses to stay above ground if they can afford it. Cuomo gets it.

Your comparison to a yellow card is soccer is way off. A second yellow card means you’re kicked out of the match. A second point violation in tennis means you lose a single point in a sport where single points can sometimes be meaningful but are more often not.

The initial call was only “controversial” because Serena…

Come the fuck on.

they can’t make the Indians give him back, that would be offensive

I’m skeptical about Cruz losing. Looking at the Governor’s race, Abbot is still double digits ahead of Valdez, and these days I don’t think that many people split their ballots.

Omg. Pretty soon every play is going to be automatically reviewed. Fuck all of this. Fuck replay. This isn’t the goddamn Supreme Court. The whole reason you can’t challenge inside two minutes is because it would irreversibly fuck up what is supposed to be the most exciting part of the game.

So, I am fully of rage generally thee days, but this little reality REALLY chaps my tits. These people are enabling, undermining, leaking to journalists - they swore an oath to uphold the Constitution and they fuck around actively ignoring it for purely self serving reasons. And then, when it’s all said and done, they…

“The guy who ruined the subway”

The bias does not contaminate the rest of the reporting because editorial board columns are not reporting, they are editorials. Helpfully, for those who do not understand this, the New York Times goes so far as to include an explanation (“The editorial board represents the opinions of the board, its editor and the…

“I worked as a front desk security guard including in a condo building, so yes, I’ve worked in law enforcement”

I agree with each of your points. I watched the whole match. Serena was getting her ass kicked, and trying everything she could to rattle Osaka. She couldn’t do it. Then Serena lost it. She screamed at the ump, what, three different times?

Throws the match? Are you serious? Osaka dominated Williams from start to finish today. I bet a million dollars you didn't watch the match. 

Rocky IV was the best of the Rockies, bearded, and fighting for the American Way, not for that trollop Adrienne, and training with good ol’ fashioned ingenuity instead of Soviet science and shit.

Yeah but Rocky IV had run up those snowy hills in his sheepskin jacket.  The Russian crowd had no choice but to applaud Rocky IV, for his free-market gumption.

This is a bullshit statement:

It’s amazing to me that people come away with that feeling sorry for Serena. That was such an embarrassing performance. Much credit to Osaka, she’s a true champion and I hope she comes back.

I’m a Serena fan and was so embarrassed for her today. Yes, it was unfortunate the ref called the coaching violation, but it’s technically the rule. Save the “it was only a thumbs up...I have a daughter! (??)” nonsense. From there on out she decided to run her match into the ground. The ref had to give her the next…

She basically meant to say that the men can call the umps anything they want without getting warnings. She clearly needs to watch the ATP tour more often. Some dudes rack up fines in the tens of thousands.

First warning to Serena for coaching. Her own coach admitted to Pam Shriver after the match that he had indeed tried to coach her. The gesture was meant for her to approach the net more often. He thought she hadn’t noticed it, but still, it’s the attempt that matters. Players have been using this excuse (“I didn’t…
