    At the end of college, I worked for a friend’s family business, which was a small furniture store chain. They sold new, cheap, low-end furniture, so when you mentioned “curios”, it took me back.

    The Tennis Podcast peeps said that Sabalenka was definitely ill. Took pills (“tablets” is the preferred tennis term) 2 different times during the match. Had no legs. Andreeva got 39% of 1st serve in during the 1st set and still won. Supposedly it was somewhat painful to watch. And the play level wasn’t that great. They also mentioned that Rybakina has a history of poor sleep and sometimes can’t sleep for two days at a time when playing two week tournaments. They mentioned that she looked tired on the court and really looked like shit in her press conference afterwards. I’m watching the Paolini vs Rybakina replay right now. It is really difficult to root against Paolini.

    Hey! Look! You know!

    Was that contact not “in the river”? Body part hit was NOT in the batter’s box. And she moved into the ball’s path. Fuck that!

    Lincoln is just like Westwood. It’s going to be like “coming home”. It has to be $$, because what the hell?

    Okay, one more comment because you appear to be dense. REPRESENTATION IS EVERYTHING The girls are going to gravitate towards sports where they see participants like themselves. Now, if you can’t grasp that, perhaps there’s no hope for you.

    😂 I didn’t see the action, but wow! That really unbelievable! I think that Aryna Sabalenka is the best women’s tennis player in the game by a fair margin, but sometimes her head gets in the way and she beats herself. I thought that Iva was going to lose this year, because one of the. IG hitters was going to knock her off the court. Then Sabalenka & Rybakina go down the same day!

    If you listen to On Texas Football and drank every time they said “At the end of the day”, you would be like Nicholas Cage at the in “Leaving Las Vegas”.

    I am suggesting that white families across the country may shift their kids’ pay-to-play focus to other sports. There is a saying- “Representation is everything.” The USA is not a soccer nation. It is not like football for boys. This isn’t a discussion for this thread, but I could see a slight shift in pay-to-play sports participation towards softball, volleyball, or other sports in the future. That is all that I will add to this subject. ⚽️⚽️ _ 🥅 _

    Last night’s USWNT is looking more and more like the composition of the US Men’s basketball team. Not sure how pay-to-play families across the USA are going to react to that. A 16 year-old scored on her debut last night.

    If I buy anything that has an SEC patch sewn on it or has “SEC” embroidered in it, I am removing that shit. I am not advertising any fucking athletic conference, especially one filled with inbred morons. I don’t support the SEC, I support Texas. 🤘 And regarding another post above, I don’t bring up where I’m from when I’m overseas, but if asked, I think that I usually say “Los Estados Unidos”, “Etats-Uni”, “The States”, or “Yanquilandia” if I’m in Argentina. When I first lived in Argentina, I would explain that I live in “Los Angeles, but gre up in Dallas.”, because LA was where I had been living for 8+ years and it was more interesting to Argentines & internationals than anywhere in Texas.

    Álcaraz took down Tsitsipas in straight set and Tsitsipas had wasting his opponents. Perhaps playing doubles with his brother and mixed doubles with Badosa wasn’t such a smart idea.

    And “Pukki” score again! 🇵🇹 Portugal 3 - 2 Finland 🇫🇮 Finland now has TWO shots and TWO goals. Shots 2 S.O.G. 2 Goals 2

    1) We need a EUROS 2024 thread with the brackets and match dates and such in the opening post or close to it. 2) Portugal 🇵🇹 v Finland 🇫🇮 (friendly) is on FS1 right now and it is really nice to see Portugal play WITHOUT an aging CR7. -Portugal is dripping with talent. -Even Portugal’s up-and-coming 21 year-old is already adept at playing the Diving Game. -Finland doesn’t know to play the Diving Game and have been fucked because even when fouled, the ref won’t blow his whistle because they don’t make a meal of it. EDIT: And just as I post this, Finland finally gets a whistle in the middle of the park, and… The Finnish striker got a one-on-one break against the keeper and made a beautiful soft chip over the keeper in true Latin American/Mediterranean cheeky style. Well fucking done, Finland!

    He was so fucking ripe for the taking yesterday and my fellow Argentine (Cerundolo) was too unsure of whether he was allowed to take him. He should regret this for the rest of his life. Novak was still #1, is the all-time Grand Slam leader, and was the reigning champion. Toppling this giant in this position will never come again. On Monday, Jannik Sinner will be the new #1 player in the ATP’s rankings and Novak will never be the #1 player in the world and reigning champion of a major* again. *…unless Novak wins Wimbledon and somehow retakes the #1 spot… and then a player would have to be lucky enough to draw Novak early enough at the US Open to be in line to take him down, if he even enters the draw.

    The comments on this post are pretty funny.

    Do they have a plan for dog piles? Is there some procedure for the people at the bottom and the middle people to provide a structure that prevents the guys at the bottom from suffocating? I remember in my yute [sic] that the people at the bottom of a dog pile always looked like they had just been resuscitated. Not a smart/safe thing to do if you need those teammates for future games.

    @Helobious- Tell me that you are not a lecherous old perv without telling me that you’re not lecherous old perv. You sound like you’ve been castrated, young man.
