This is the kind of shit that a competent regulatory regime should nuke online sportsbooks from orbit for.

You want to be in the pocket of every risk addicted 20-something dude in America you get limits slammed on the size of the edge you can take against them.

In the roughly 80+ years since the invention of batting helmets, America has been involved in one world war.

That’s the same amount of world wars they participated in over the previous 160+ years.

So batting helmets cause a ~100% increase in world wars.

Just a lil idea for the next google ai ad.

Earlier today AndrΓ©s MuΓ±oz told the media that when they leave their apartment, he and his wife leave the TV on so that Matilda (their cat) can watch the game.

[Listening to the Taylor Swift album at 2.5x so I can get this review out before everyone else] I have to say, her pitch is too high on every single song. Disappointing. Incredible breath control singing that fast though

my takeaway from climate week nyc is that "climate storytelling" is a little too much "we must reimagine our deepest souls in relationship to mother nature and the moral abyss of the polycrisis into which we must now stare" and not enough "ok but get a heat pump"

I know baseball isn't a contact sport, but can we at least ask the two teams to wear different-colored uniforms?

restaurants are a scam. most restaurants secretly have a kitchen in the back that you’re not allowed to see where they prepare all the food

pulisic vs eze radar

They should go get Pulisic for Β£35m. And he's actually played more than Eze the last two seasons.

imo 'sports misery' occurs as a circle not a spectrum--when your team is complete dogshit you achieve an unstressed freedom only otherwise found in fans of multi-year championship dynasties. true misery is eternal mid-ness, year-in year-out ~.500, one or two beloved stars wasting their careers

Ralf Rangnick once argued that because 30% of goals come from set pieces, teams should spend 30% of their training time practicing set pieces.

Every team in this tournament should spend 6 hours a day for the next four years kicking the ball at a goal 12 yards away

Fun fact: The Blazers will have enough room under the cap next summer to trade Lillard for Tyler Herro and Jaime Jaquez Jr.
