  1. Hinata again. 3-0 Japan. Spain has no answer for the speed of the Japanese forwards.
  2. And now a pretty (if a tad flukey) second goal from Ueki off the counter-attack. 2-0 Japan
  3. Japan strikes first. Perfect through pass by Endo. And clinical finish by Hinata. Spain looks pissed.
  4. I like garlic and I like hummus, but I gotta say after trying every variety under the sun, I prefer the OG regular hummus. Squeeze a bit of fresh lemon juice on that stuff, consume with warm pita and feel the tingle!
  5. That is one fast-moving tree. Somebody must have really triggered the Ents...
  6. In the year of the scavenger, the season of the b!tch Sashay on the boardwalk, scurry to the ditch Just another future song, lonely little kitsch (There's gonna be sorrow) try and wake up tomorrow I'll keep a friend serene (Will they come?) Oh baby, come unto me(Will they come?) Well, she's come, been and gone Come out of the garden, baby You'll catch your death in the fog Young girl, they call them the Diamond Dogs
  7. I was not too impressed with the level of soccer displayed in that game. Except for Sophia Smith. She's an outstanding goalscorer. Later on I watched Japan vs. Zambia, and it was night-and-day compared to U.S./Vietnam. Now granted that the level of the competition was extremely low, but the Japanese women still took care of their business properly, and curb-stomped them as they should. I don't know if Nadeshiko can pull off a repeat of 2011 when they won it all, but I expect them to make it pretty far into this tournament.
  8. I had the opposite reaction. I thought he looked done like dinner.
  9. I feel like he might have had a shot, but as I recall the knee injury in training camp wasn't fixable.
  10. "Breaking: Young kid with fast new car drives car fast. News at 11"
  11. Someone who didn't know any better might call what I do "golfing."
  12. I remember when we drafted him that I thought Avion Black was a cool name. Like a Blackbird (airplane). I used to run around holding my arms out making airplane noises, shouting "Look at me! I'm Avion!"
  13. According to pro football reference, Crowder took 93 offensive snaps last season for the Bills and had 6 receptions for 60 yards before he broke his foot and was done.
  14. https://www.pasadenaweekly.com/news/salaries-can-t-keep-up-low-income-threshold-increased-to-70-650-in-los-angeles/article_f1bd2e90-1bbd-11ee-8fec-93035222329e.html
  15. He can go into the "Hall of Fame of Players Who Had a Great First 6 Years in the League"
  16. Sorry I wielded you out. I was going for "weirded" out, but I suck at Wordle, apparently. I blame the XVI th emperor. (The meditative one.)
  17. He should have tried them all on in the fitting room then left their distorted, shredded remnants with the attendant: "Nope, these are definitely not my size!"
  18. I assume the Bills training staff crafts individualized fitness routines for every player based on factors such as body type, age, injury history, etc. The in-season "veterans rest days" probably help the older guys recover a bit faster and somewhat mitigate the risk of re-aggravating old injuries.
  19. Marilyn was Julie's stuntwoman, so she actually appeared in some action scenes in a few episodes, but in the last Catwoman episode "The Entrancing Dr. Cassandra" Marilyn actually played Catwoman in every scene.
  20. And Marilyn Watson for one episode. And Lee Meriwether in the 1966 movie. I think they're both still alive.
