  1. My cat's GPS tracker (the Goober Positioning System) is aiming for "true but uninformative" today with this default zoom level. (He was on the front doorstep.)
  2. First off, it always has been that way. Second, that's exactly what's made it worth watching; trying to see who will make the cut and who won't, between the journeyman veterans and the fresh-drafted/graduated hopefuls. Not to mention the "Hey has this starter really recovered from his injury" etc.
  3. Keys had over 80 unforced errors. Hard to win anything when you spot your opponent over 80 points. Doesn't take anything away from Zarazua's play, though. From the games I watched, she was making some outstanding shots. Watching the game felt very different from the games I saw yesterday... just an overall higher level of play from both players.
  4. lol we haven't been better than this since the taco bell gongs in the 90s
  5. I think everyone thinks that, other than the Dolphins front office, who somehow have him $6m guaranteed. ouch
  6. At least, if you include the ones the PRC doesn't officially recognize, yeah. Anyway, if she HAS had a rhinoplasty... it hasn't helped much.
  7. Did you know that her country has nearly a billion and a half people with at least 19 major recognized ethnic groups? I'm guessing you don't know a lot of Chinese people...
  8. Also, it's her first ever major 1st round win. In a slam. With a slightly easier couple of opponents ahead of her, having beaten a seed -- only one player in her bracket for the next two rounds is seeded, Mertens at #19. A decent run can be life-changing for a young player like this; she just bashed the door wide open.
  9. It's really fuckin' painful watching seeded women's players double-fault away points and even games. Case in point, Wang just went from 15-0 to 15-40 against Navarro without even having to connect with a single ball.
  10. Terrible take. She's the first women's player from the Philippines to EVER win a match at a major tournament. It's kind of a big deal.
  11. Danish chick needs to stop arguing the review and try to win the next points. AND NO SHE DOUBLE FAULTS AWAY HER SERVE, 5-5 IN THE THIRD HAHAHAHAHAHA
  12. This gal from the Philippines coming back from down 5-2 in the 3rd, one point away from making it 5-5. Sabalenka's opponent falling apart in the 2nd set, double faulting away her serve.
  13. OK that first set point was impressive... Sabalenka is goood.
  14. There are at least two teams where he would start, now, at his current level: Saints and Colts. People here are talking about the Dolphins' QB room being garbage... Tua, when healthy, is a fine starting NFL QB. The real problem with the Dolphins is the rest of the team is kinda shitty (though they have at least one franchise RB).
  15. The first sack was 100% not his fault. The first two of his plays were a comedy of errors from his supporting cast. The second sack... really looked like a patented Ewwers self-sack tho. Man, when he's got a couple of years in the league and if he stays healthy and can figure out the pocket presence thing, he's going to be great, because I watched a lot of football today and when he's on, nobody throws a nicer pass. He's finally at a point where just trusting his arm talent isn't going to be enough to really succeed.
  16. That's what makes it a highlight play. Far from his best play today, though. He did really, really well today.
  17. it's a good thing Seattle sucks
  18. Yeah, I don't give a shit about playing stupid ass "gotcha" games with idiots on the Internet any more. Ztejas gets it; this guy doesn't, and thinks he's won something because of it. How pointless.
  19. Hey... you're the one making an absolute out of it, not me. You're the one who's making the claim that DKR is somehow less of a Longhorn. Don't invent something in YOUR head and try and pin it on someone else, OK? Anyway... have fun in my block list. There's lots of wonderful like-minded people with you in there!
