    The War of 1836.
  2. article hot take: Christian Williams: Michael Penix Jr. is the most overrated player on this list, not because of talent but because of injury and age concerns that could limit draft capital upside. Penix is a great deep ball thrower operating a well-designed offense, but the injuries he's experienced show up on film (his movement skills are much worse now than when he was afreshman). He's also an older prospect. Penix looks like a second-round pick, at best,giving him a lot less value than some are speculating. 🙄 Agreed! You do NOT want a QB with tons of starting experience who throws beautiful deep balls and has learned to bide his time in the pocket while avoiding pressure before launching pinpoint passes who will be on a 5 year rookie contract. You want a younger guy with limited starts and inferior production.
  3. It’s also called Fútbol, Futebol, Calcio, Fussball (Fußball), and other shit. Predictiom: France 6 USA 0
  4. You didn’t notice that Sean Connery and his buddy were crinkling around in every scene?
  5. 3) Pocket Awareness/ Extending plays while going through his progressions. I think that #3 is what is holding Quinn down the most. If Quinn had declared for the draft this year, he would’ve been a 3rd to 5th round pick that a team would have planned to sit two years before seeing what they had. Quinn’s pocket awareness/ speed of goin through his progressions/ inability to extend plays are what would get him killed in the NFL right now. The NFL rules that outlaw Dallas Turner-type plays would be his only hope of staying off the IR. PS- Quinn is likely going to make more money this year via NIL than he would being drafted in the middle rounds, and he gets to continue to develop under a (former) NFL OC.
  6. Badosa was moving gingerly the last 3 or 4 games, but she pulled out the win. SH: 6 4 3 PB: 1 6 6
  7. DId Badosa have surgery or something? She was out for a while and then played the mixed doubles exhibition before Indian Wells before promptly pulling out of the main draw.
  8. Saw that Venus lost in straight sets after accepting yet another Wild Card invite that could have gone to some promising up-and-coming American. Venus has no shame. And after seeing this... And then this... I thought... "I'll give Emma some lower back pain." Also, didn't realize that Raducanu had fallen to ... . . .
  9. Koltsov was in Florida supporting Sabalenka ahead of the upcoming Miami Open. Despite Kolstov's shock passing, the two-time Australian Open champion still intends to play the tournament in the Sunshine State, where she is seeded second, according to the Tennis Channel. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/tennis/article-13215259/Aryna-Sabalenkas-boyfriend-Konstantin-Koltsov-died-suicide.html Normally "Jumped from a balcony" means that Putin had the guy thrown off a balcony. Don't know if this guy was a critic of the Belarusian president sucking Putin's mini-pecker, but in this case... If Sabalenka "still intends to play the tournament", then I'm guessing that she broke up with him. Either that, or his brain is mush from CTE and he came to say "Goodbye" to Sabalenka before jumping. PS- She looks smoking hot in the photo above.

    I don’t like adding Aaronson. He sucks ass for months, if not a year and then finally gets dropped. He has one good game and he’s back in the squad. JFC, Gregg! What the fuck?

    Puli flew past his marker to be in pole position to get to that keeper’s save first. He may be about 5’6”-5’7” and weigh about 120-130 lbs, but that boy can fly.

    1) Alejandro Moreno… 2) Cade Cowell Guadalajara has accepted that they need to allow dual nationals (especially with Aztec blood 🩸) to play on their team or they will fall further into irrelevancy. Cade has a Mexican passport, so he’s good enough these days.

    My Wolverhampton crush, Georgia Eden, was looking to be chuffed, but she ended up gutted. Her hair has definitely been better, but she’s young and still finding her look.
  16. In the 2nd set tie-breaker he jumped and spun to hit the ball at about 3-2 and lost the point and twisted an ankle. (Maybe at 2-2.) He was having some issues with it and I think that it is the main reason that his form dipped in the tie-breaker, because he wasn’t as quick around the court. Then he had his ankle taped after her lost the 2nd set and he wasn’t the same in the 3rd set. From his serve to his anticipation to his ability to endure 20+ hit rallies. He was missing something after her hurt his ankle. It was crazy how quickly he anticipated things in the first set and the. In the second when he was coming back from being down 0-4. But he couldn’t do that in the 3rd. I doubt that he’ll skip Miami, but it would be great if he could rest the ankle a week, but he will only get two to three days at most. And that’s after flying cross country when his ankle needs to be in a compression chamber… and a plane is basically the opposite of that.
  17. Tommy Paul🇺🇸 coming back from 0-4 in the 2nd set to being back on serve at 4-5 as Medvedev🇷🇺 served for the 2nd set. That two first named white boy has crazy cat-like 🐈 reflexes. UPDATE: Paul is now down 0-30. Shite! UPDATE #2: Paul reels off 4 straight points, it is now 5-5.

    1) I don’t go to College Station. Have been once and am never. Going again. 2) * “Me are” is fucking regarded grammar. Even the Mexicans & Brazilians wouldn’t butcher English like that. 3) Hopefully the concessions are influenced by the two teams, but get there just in case and sample the food outside the stadium. Trash something on campus on your way out. Maybe use some kind of week killer to kill off the grass in an area that says: 27-25
  19. Lisa Loeb: -“Stay (I Missed You)” was #1 -“I Do” was #17 -“Do You Sleep” was #18 …3 Top 20 Hits and yet she’s a “1 Hit Wonder”.
  20. Emma’s excitement upon winning matched someone finishing a practice session and heard her name yelled… …so she briefly acknowledged a possible fan or two before before proceeding to go pack her things because someone else needed the court for practice in a few minutes. She just beat the #2 player in the world who was the tournament’s reigning champ and who won the most recent grand slam. Her response was similar to someone finishing up in a library with other people studying near her, so she will try to make as little noise or commotion possible, because she doesn’t want to disturb anyone.
