Same as always. When you try to optimize an inefficient process, you get blamed.

@boomzilla As an old-timer, I would say is doing an interview while you're on the field.

This isn't a WTF, but I thought it might be of interest.

I guess now that they're up to 9726 countries in the tournament, they need a few extra auto-bids.

I guess we know where Bellicheat will be going after he gets run out of Boston on a splintery rail.

This one was disproven when the last one died and Mayo still can’t win.

@boomzilla
wrong thread ... no balls involved

Shockingly, getting cute with a goal kick is hazardous to your score line

Video is not available in your country
Fix your cert, btw.

Youtube link for the same goal.

I have a feeling that Bobby Bonilla Day is going to get upstaged in the annals of baseball lore…

@izzion Long gone are the days of the O'Malleys losing first-rate players because they refused to sign contracts longer than a couple of years.

Remember when sports all-star games were, you know, all-star games?

Jameis Winston is one of the strangest and most mind-boggling human beings on planet Earth.
I had a reply I was going to post, but I realized this isn't the . It was also inaccurate, because the author specifically said "human beings," so comparing him to politicians would be miscategorization.
-
Yeah that is a pretty dirty move.

@izzion I like that Buffalo wants to be tough and refuse to have a domed stadium. It's one of the things I respect about them, Chicago, and Green Bay.
But can't they at least put a cover over the seats so they don't have to do as much shoveling?

Toby Faire, unless the cover was a magic snow dissolving cover, they’d just be adding to the problem of shoveling the field or have to some how clear snow amounts in excess of 30cm from the cover in order to remove it.
Or they could go half done and have the worst of both worlds.
-
@izzion The field is easily plowable and/or blown away. They already have systems for that.
Getting snow out of the stands sounds like a logistical nightmare. Where do you put the snow? With all the nooks and crannies in the stands, and no clear place to just shove it into, it sounds tedious.
And if you tilt the cover away from the field to the outside of the stadium, then that should fix the problem you are presumably talking about.

Well, I'm assuming a removable tarp cover, so as to maintain the open air stadium.
Doing a fixed roof over the seating area to result in a half dome would basically just give you a domed stadium but without the actual retractable roof. Sure, they'll still be able to play football LIKE MEN in the cold, but you'll have a lot of the field surface and kicking game aerodynamics problems of a domed stadium with the roof open.

You ship it to , where it belongs.

the Angels like to pretend that Los Angeles does as well
As a life-long Dodgers fan, I think that's hilarious.

@remi Almost, but not quite, entirely wrong. I was born roughly the same time they moved from Brooklyn to Los Angeles. As a Brooklyn team, I would have had no interest in them, so in a sense, I did have to wait until they moved (except they were actually a little ahead of me). However, as an infant, I still had no interest in them or any other sports team. It wasn't until I was maybe 7 yo, or so, that I developed any awareness of, much less interest in, baseball. That awareness was due entirely to the influence of my grandmother's neighbor, who was from Brooklyn and insisted that if I wanted to be her friend, I was required to be a Dodgers fan.

There's a tweet in there that demonstrates what they do with the snow in the stands:
Slides!

@boomzilla The wording of the headline has me imagining them just kidnapping a random person taking a walk and throwing them into the pit.
Then again, that might be literally what they're doing. The Bills Mafia is a breed of human I have trouble over/under estimating.

... wait... no.. that would be what it'd do if i plugged my laptop in. oopsies. :D
