A tourist was seriously injured after a bison tossed them about 8 feet into the air in Yellowstone National Park. The attack was captured on video by photographer Mike Macleod.

My daughter quit soccer a couple of years ago and we were bummed about it but also know our bank account dodged a bullet.

Landon Donovan says America is missing soccer talent because kids can’t afford to play.

“Only 2% of kids playing organized soccer in America came from households that made less than $50,000.”

“If you don’t make $50,000, your kid cannot play organized soccer.”

“Think about how many kids you’re missing out on in this country because they can’t afford to play the game.”

“There is zero chance I could have played club soccer.”

“My mom made $34,000 a year, single mom raising three kids.”

“She couldn’t pay $4,000 for me to play club. Are you kidding? She couldn’t pay $400.”

“That’s not a good system to create good players.”

@KevOnStage Steve Nash I think said his soccer translated to basketball. Steve had incredible court vision

"And they will play a game, divided into two halves."

"And how much time is in each half?"

"Nobody knows."

There’s nothing worse than hearing people at work who don’t know ball talk sports

This is easily one of the best highlight videos for an NBA player and not one of these plays are in a Heat jersey.

The way LeBron moved back then seems even crazier now 😭😭

We did a weight-loss challenge at work where we had to lose a certain % of weight. If weight wasn’t made by deadline, you would owe $5 per pound to everyone in the challenge. Everyone always made weight except 1 time. Guy was 10 over & didn’t pay. Never talked to him again.

Someone built a fitness app using the same psychological mechanics as gambling

This might work better than every normal fitness app 😭😭

You bet money on whether you’ll hit 10,000 steps today

If you fail, you lose your money

If you succeed, you split the money from everyone who didn’t

So disciplined people literally profit off lazy people

Most fitness apps try motivating you with streaks and notifications

This one motivates you with financial fear

Imagine realizing at 11:52pm you still need 1,700 more steps or you lose $30

Entire friend groups would be outside walking laps around their neighborhood before midnight trying not to lose their steppa challenge

It sounds stupid but this would probably motivate people better than any other fitness product

Would you use this yourself?

@kindofmaybe @VinnysCorner1 This is the only answer

@Kiing_Prince @TheWestbrookEra I think he’s better than Klay. The midrange game was automatic for Nash and Klay barely took/takes those shots. I also got Dirk over Nash.

In this Backyard, it’s “win or go home,” and this crew hasn’t left since the 90's.

Where there’s a pitch, there’s a legend.

We are announcing today that The American Revolution will stream for free in its entirety on all PBS platforms from May 25th through July 12. Hope you have a chance to watch, ideally with friends and family, as you think about our 250th anniversary this July 4th. https://t.co/c8fc6Sldj5

Had this moment in Amsterdam in my late 20’s.

[le.hl @0xleegenz]

Walking alone through a foreign city at night and realizing how far you’ve come has to be a top 3 peak moment of all time

This is my soapbox opinion. Why this isn’t a major mainstream sport in the US is baffling to me.

There is a little sweet spot in there for those born around 78-84 who aren’t really Gen X, nor are they really Millennials. The last to grow up with landlines, 3 channels, and filmstrips, and the first to grow up with the internet, MTV, and cable.

@DtxZain @All_Things_Mavs After 2 weeks I think all of Mavs fandom thought Roddy B was gonna be a Hall of Famer. 😂 I was looking at jersey costs.
