  1. This is the crap I hate. All this stuff has been said about men forever, and if it get said about a woman, it's because they're a woman! Bat flips, touchdown celebrations outlawed, etc. I remember being maybe 9 years old at the Rockpile and wondering why the Bills fans hate Hank Stram. Well, it was because he ran up the score last time with an unnecessary TD at the end of the game..............Sportsmanship has been an issue since I can remember. Why do people with causes defeat their causes by being disingenuous. Why would I pay attention to Abby Wambach again?
  2. I have no idea what The Heretic is talking about. Doesn't help that I have no idea what USSF, SUM, and lower division mean...............Please explain what it is they are saying.
  3. I dunno, maybe part of the problem is that fewer people are reading what they’re offering? I’m sure President Sanders or President Warren will come through with subsidies. P.S. This tidbit in the story is curious: . I wish that the people who are Occupy Democrats were literally bleeding. Whoever comes up with their unfunny and always factually wrong memes deserve as much pain as possible for showing up on Facebook feed with their nonsense...............I guess it serves a purpose of letting me know what Facebook "friends" have no discernible brain.
  4. So, you make a claim in A saying that I'm wrong. I show evidence that I'm right, and then you just skip to B? I am all for people bettering themselves. What I'm not for is making up victimhood excuses to do so. For soccer, if your assertion "They aren't asking for equal pay, just pay commensurate with the revenue they generate" is or was right, I'd be 100% good with that..............Also, I do not know where the money comes from for the USWNT. They probably are as popular as the men's team in the US. I know more players and have for 20 years than I do on the men's side................But, I would think part of their money is based on entire world of FIFA/World Cup or whatever. And, there's no way you would see any men's WC game with 1/3 of the seats filled.............Especially between Scotland and England, when the game is in France. So, I'm open to hearing where the money comes from for the mens and womens national teams. As for basketball, I saw Breann Stewart get the ESPY after her senior year and then get up and complain about women's salaries. She wasn't even a pro yet..................And, unless things have changed, and I've done research and have not found that they have, the league losses money for the NBA. I saw a writer on twitter complain that the WNBA needs to expand because Cierra Dillard got cut after only 6 days (after the media has a big party because she got drafted) - because there are only 144 spots in the league............I asked the writer "Doesn't the league lose money?" and of course, never got a reply. Don't give me feels. Give me numbers.
  5. I blame Lowry not so much for the buzzer beater miss..................But, with 1:40 left, he drives to the basket, looks like he's either going to score or get fouled. There are maybe 3 seconds left on the 24 second clock and whips the ball outside. WTF?!?
  6. I do remember being at the 2008 opener and word was getting around that Brady had blown out his ACL..............And, people would cheer when they heard it. Might be different if he was on the field.
  7. Does anyone know when this started - both finals going on at the same time - basically on alternate nights? I think it's great. But, I don't remember it being that way until recently. I think the NHL used to start a few weeks earlier?
  8. a) For soccer: Abby Wambach Won’t Stop Until the U.S. Women’s Soccer Team Gets Equal Pay https://www.glamour.com/story/abby-wambach-womens-soccer-lawsuit-interview For the WNBA, I think that would mean the players would be paying to play, since the NBA losses money on it. b.) I have no idea what that means.
  9. I only get annoyed by cries from WNBA and USWNT members for equal pay, when clearly they don't rake in an equal amount of money. This type of crowd wouldn't be seen at any men's WC game:
  10. I haven't listened to Bill Burr in quite a while, but I remember he was super emotional because he felt he had to get rid of his beloved pit bull - because they had a baby on the way.
  11. The stray cat we had for a couple of years when I was a kid was such a tough street fighter that back then, in the days of free range dogs, the dogs would be walking down our side of the street, see our cat just standing in the front yard, cross the street and then cross back over when they had cleared her range.
  12. I like Buck Buchanan better
  13. My dad was in the 89th division. I didn't know he was last!
  14. He's reinforcing the preconceptions of pit bull owners mentioned earlier. 284 deaths. What about the many maimed? Pets killed, etc?
  15. But, now I read that the Blues and Bruins are the two biggest, heaviest, most physical teams - and they're the ones still standing??
  16. I'm assuming the pit bull fanatics who used to be on this board - Big Cat and that guy who went by his name, Howie or something - have been mauled to death by now?
  17. When they can crack into this graph from Forbes instead of your pitbulllovers.com graph
  18. I was wondering where the BS was coming from.
  19. LOL - so you put up a graph that shows pit bulls KILLING people at 500x the rate you said.
  20. Where are yours? You're the one who put out a number.
