On last episode of Ted Lasso, the commentator says a penalty kick is from 18 yards. Just another reason why they should never actually show fictionalized action in a sports-themed film or series.
@tennischannel Why is Martina Navratilova the only commentator who bothers to pronounce names correctly? Accent on first syllable, not on OVA, for Slavic players. Hurts my ears!! There are only 2 players out there. Get it right!!
I'm not a fan of many football coaches, who by nature and job description are relentless control freaks. But Jim Fassel was a nice man and a dream to deal with. So sad he died too young. It was just plain wrong that nobody gave him another chance after the Giants.
Neither the Rangers, nor I, have any idea if the assault charges against Panarin are true. But their immediate declaration that those charges are "a fabrication" fits perfectly with the Garden's traditional attitude toward me-too issues (see Isiah v Anucha Browne Sanders).
And there goes Tiger Woods, headed for the fourth tee, making no political stand again. Or maybe this is his political stand... Naomi Osaka, a 22-year-old tennis player, was far braver in an individual sport
Would it really be so hard for CBS to find ONE American commentator or analyst for its Champions League telecast? As little respect for US soccer broadcasters as there is for US soccer coaches.
Amazingi how "The Last Dance" has totally ignored Jordan's history with women. He was Tiger before Tiger was Tiger. His ex-wife, Juanita, is virtually invisible while he is portrayed as a loving father.
Once asked David Stern why owners had to make money on their franchises, really, since they were already rich and would make plenty whenever they re-sold the teams. "Then you're a communist," he said, smiling. I'll miss the banter.
In woeful 3-0 defeat to Mexico on Friday night, the U.S. men's soccer team did its best to endorse equal pay for the women. Or, actually... much better pay.
About 5,000 times a season, MLB teams would be better off putting me up at bat rather than their scheduled hitters (Iβd just strike out; wouldnβt hit into a double play).
Comparisons between Coco Gauff and the Williamses don't work, because Richard kept the sisters from this circus until they were older.
Somehow, noone has mentioned CC Bellis, who was about a month older than Coco when she won at the US Open and basically has been injured since
Nadal is fighting the wrong bracket fight at Wimbledon. The more important question is why tennis sometimes forces the No. 3 seed to play the No. 1 seed in the semifinal. Should be 1 vs. 4, always.
