If you're an Indian athlete, you want to be a cricketer 1st-4th and then maybe football.

[Laurie @LFCLaurie]

I know it’s said every World Cup but the fact that China and India still can’t qualify even with an expanded tournament when they have a combined male population of around 1.5 billion is kinda nuts.

Someone from their second floor apartment projects the Knicks game against the 4th Avenue-9th Street station

[Dov Friedman @DovSFriedman]

When they were up ~19 early in the 4th I remember doing a rough "target score" calculus and thinking, there's no way they don't get there. Welp.

[Jake Anbinder @JakeAnbinder]

The only thing more insane than the fact that the Spurs had 30 second half points is if they have 32 they win the game

[Dov Friedman @DovSFriedman]

So nice this account did it twice.

People forget how batshit the 2019 WS was. Zero home team wins.

[Armin Rosen @ArminRosen]

Last night was the most insane sports shit I've maybe ever seen, *other* than the Howie Kendrick game 7 homer that won the World Series for the Nats. That Bills collapse in the playoffs against the Chiefs was also pretty lit but the stakes were lower

[Dov Friedman @DovSFriedman]

Credit to the Knicks, but zero credit to the Knicks' fans, who showed themselves to be incorrigibly delusional homers with zero chill. Team is so likeable, unfortunately they are mostly liked by New Yorkers.

[Dov Friedman @DovSFriedman]

@ishaantharoor You should have left the adopting NYC teams tweet up, that was deliciously spicy.

@gluckstadt Words defy me.

Honestly, I’m just happy for Taylor

[Russillo @ryenarussillo]

Still can’t believe that Fox layup attempt and now no one will remember Hart’s miss in two weeks.

[Dov Friedman @DovSFriedman]

Fox not dribbling out and taking the foul. You'd think he was the rookie.

[Dov Friedman @DovSFriedman]

One of the craziest games I've ever seen. Shattering.

[Dov Friedman @DovSFriedman]

I'm leaving this up no matter what. Just an epic collapse.

Spurs, collectively: "Oh, you think you lost because of the refs?"

[Dov Friedman @DovSFriedman]

This is deeply incisive. It's embarrassing for a basketball city. Have a little self respect and act like you've been there (even if you haven't).

[Armin Rosen @ArminRosen]

Knicks fans are so drunk on success—and so anxious about Blowing It—that they've lost touch with the sport of basketball itself https://t.co/Mlz3wAESIV

I mean, I think we all can agree Dolan is a shithead, but "Hitler had some good ideas" this is not.

[Kristi Yamaguccimane @TheWapplehouse]

Never seen a team owner on the precipice of ending a 53 year drought go out of their way to kill the vibes this hard. This is beyond even Dan Snyder and Donald Sterling. This is Marge Schott territory.

[Dov Friedman @DovSFriedman]

Much of this is correct, and the bright future depends on large part on how deep a future admin is willing to cut into the relationship.

The gleeful tone on territorial expansion, though, is pretty gross.

[Armin Rosen @ArminRosen]

Highest birthrates in the developed world, exporter of stuff other rich countries need (missile defense, cyberweapons etc), territorial control expanding nearly every day by now with no real prospect of it being reversed any time soon. Diplomatic/reputational bumps coming when Bibi's out and the war ends more definitively. The anti-Israel people must adjust to the reality that their enemy's future is looking pretty bright at the moment

Will people finally stop calling this a ceasefire now? A ceasefire that requires regular strikes and salvos is like a vegetarian who eats steak on weekends
