He was actually the one who decided to remove the bottom of the basket pretty soon after he invented the game. The basket was still too small for the ball to small through though, so they’d use a stick to push it out the top every time.

This is probably in Kansas to be honest. He invented the game in Springfield but left in his 30s. Looks a bit older than that here.

To be fair, I do have some sympathy for the athletes. She probably began her Olympic training at 10 or 12 years old and was indoctrinated into this program. It’s certainly not fair to the other athletes, but she also probably didn’t have much of a say in it. I’ll criticize the Russian state-sponsored doping program all day long, but some (not all) of these athletes are kind of caught up in a shitty situation.

It literally says kids should still play sports because the benefits outweigh the risks. Just get them screened for cardiac issues and make sure if they’re injured you give them enough time to recover.

Sounds like you didn’t read the article because that’s not what it’s saying at all.

The Masters broadcast is notoriously strict about what they can talk about. I don’t think they’re going to want the network mentioning the blunder at all.

I don’t think they’ll move it. They’ve played in 60+ degree weather in Denver and LA before. The ice is gonna suck but they’ll play on.

The storm is moving in from the west and headed out to sea. Once it passes Boston, the rest of the country will have already cleared up. Inbound delays will clear up relatively quickly and there shouldn’t be much of an issue getting out of Boston on Saturday morning. The timing of the storm helps, the worst of it will come tonight when they’re aren’t as many flights in and out of Logan. Friday will be the catch-up day and Saturday should be relatively fine. I would expect some delays, but cancellations or being stuck in the airport for 8 hours, probably not.

Even then, they’re usually back on track within about 12 hours or so of the end of a storm unless it’s particularly devastating. Worst case I think you’d only see a couple hour delay

If Messi of all people had to duck those power lines must’ve been really low

Yeah I was driving home earlier and the roads were pretty damn slippery. Definitely necessary to slow down

They’ve only been doing Athlete of the Year since 2019, but so far all of them have been American. USWNT in 2019, Lebron James in 2020, and Simone Biles in 2021

Do people actually believe this or is this just some shitty online conspiracy show? I feel like this is like posting a clip of Alex Jones and saying “America has come to the conclusion that water is turning the frogs gay”

I did the exact same thing

2010 was really weird I remember. Obviously North Koreans can’t travel abroad, so they paid a bunch of people from China (I believe, can’t remember what country it was) to cheer for them in the stands.

They can fly and have 2 inch long spurs on the backs of their legs that they can poke you with. I’m not saying you’re not gonna win the fight, but they can definitely hurt you

My dad used to do this when he had some free time. He was raised Catholic. He isn’t super religious by any means these days, but he would turn into the most devout Catholic of all time when the jehovahs witnesses would stop by.

Europe is “the West.” It’s not necessarily about the geographic position, it’s a cultural thing. A place like Australia would also be considered “the West,” even though it’s not geographically.

7 of the 8 stadiums hosting games were built in the past 3 years and the 8th one underwent pretty significant renovations after their bid was successful. It’s crazy how much they’ve had to build.

Policing as we know it wasn’t really a thing until relatively recently (around the turn of the 20th century). Before that, case files didn’t really exist. So yeah, you might be right, but they can only go off of what’s been reported. It’s very rare for a body to be left with no identifying characteristics like this woman’s. The FBI keeps a list of unidentified victims and they only have 53 of them in the whole country.

She was reported missing according to the article

It’s not the oldest unsolved murder, it was the oldest unidentified body.

The comedy of it was perfect. He keeps trying a bunch of times, then he finally stops for a few seconds and you think he might’ve figure it out, then he goes and slams on the gas again. Eventually, he starts to back up and straighten it out. Ok, he finally gave up and is backing out of the garage, he figured it out. Nope, let me just put it in drive and floor it straight forward again.

Registration is good for 2 years. I bought my car in November but my registration renewal date is in March. When I bought my car in November of 2018, my registration was due for renewal in March of 2021
