Boneheaded move by Hierro to take off Costa, David Silva, and Iniesta. A one goal lead against CR7 is never safe and having subs that are neither defensive nor can create genuine goal scoring chances was not going to preserve that lead.

A lot of South Asia speaks English too.

This was a classic episode.

Sadly the obverse happens too. Being an asshole is not restricted to one group of people.

Is adult tee ball a thing? I feel like it should be a thing if it isn’t.

It’s really annoying when British soccer commentator use the Spanish (as in Spain) pronunciation conventions for Latin American players.

He’d probably still go after Mario Chalmers.

Talk about a wiener-loser situation!

My guess is that FOX wants the show to be both live and on Fridays. This would seemingly screw up their current house show schedule. With so much money being generated off television deals, would the WWE cut back on non-televised live events?

Ryder Hesjedal (sp?) won the Giro d’Italia one year and people started proclaiming him to be the second coming of pre-roid scandal Lance. I think Sportsnet even increased their cycling coverage, which I guess was a good thing.

*presses pause to look up at computer screen*

Van/Zazie Beets?

Really? All white people kinda sound like that to me.

I’ll take any of those asshats for the asshat we have during the first intermission.

I find that you leave a lot of mango meat behind using this method. You’re better off just peeling the skin off and cutting off chunks.

It’s Ronaldo (the Brazilian soccer player) that slides into Ferdinand. Cristiano Ronaldo is the one that scores the goal.

Salka is a Hungarian last name and considering what’s happening in Hungary right now, this story is even better.

Bit of a stretch. The NHL as a whole doesn’t have the appeal that the NFL as a whole has in the US. The Rogers execs are probably down on their knees hoping the Jets and Leafs both make deep runs.

Besides the Olympics, Canadian sports media is pretty trash. (Don’t even get me started on simsub). But Rogers Sportsnet did a really cool thing by showing this game nationwide last night. It was slated to be a regional game, blacked out outside of British Columbia.

Why not just give the highest lottery odds to the ninth place team in each conference?
