For some reason my Reddit feed keeps showing man city fans doing some serious cope and I think the sympathetic thing to do is to dissolve the club

Read that Trimble/McKeown article comparing rugby to soviet factories and it's very "this thing makes running a rugby club more difficult -> get rid of it -> ??? -> Profit"

I haven't seen the film. This means I cannot confidently assess its editing, corroboration, or the

My firm belief is that a sufficiently cold Corona with lime on a warm day ceases to be an alcoholic beverage and becomes something akin to an isotonic sports drink.

Are we going to get the 200 articles on James Orr then? Maybe read and interrogate the footnotes of his doctoral thesis? Is Cambridge going to have to issue out statements about its hiring standards?

As I recall this started as a photoshopped joke but the bus company was amused and changed the route number to 925 to make it true.

I don't know who needs to hear this but: Blind ranking the Premier League table 1-20 does not work as a concept because you know all of the 20 options coming. It's not a blind ranking; it's just predicting the table.

I think it’s just worth remembering that as the media handwring to justify publicly humiliating and hounding a man to death, just two weeks ago they gave glowing eulogies to another man with a history of domestic violence and brushed off his own statements about having pedophillic impulses
