I've never heard of this Colin Cowherd guy but I take the word of CFers who say he's an enemy. So that makes this all the funnier: http://bleacherreport.com/articles/2530353-mlbpa-reportedly-unhappy-after-colin-cowherds-comments-on-dominican-players

Juventus loaned Sebastian Giovinco to Toronto FC for four years. He looks to be by far the best player in MLS this year: http://www.mlssoccer.com/news/article/2015/07/12/few-quick-facts-about-sebastian-giovincos-nine-minute-first-half-hat-trick-t I wonder if he'll get called back to Europe...

Rick Perry is a rival of Donald Trump. In the last election campaign he said that if you oppose in-state tuition for illegals "I Don't Think You Have a Heart" Governor Perry Then there's Lindsay Graham.

The funniest thing about Trump's campaign is the official CONservative Movement's meltdown over his popularity. The conservatives have had decades to deal with immigration and other issues but they didn't bother. When push came to shove all they ever about were Israel, taxes, winning elections...

The winners of the above mentioned transfers are likely to be Man United and Liverpool. In the case of the latter not only do they get 69E/$76 million for an unproven player in Sterling but they also get rid of someone whose behaviour during this process indicates that he would be trouble in the...

I agree. Federer was extraordinary. He was even able to rally as well as Murray. His once weak backhand looking strong and accurate. No forehand shanks either. I think part of it is that he knows he won't last five sets against most of these guys so he has decided - probably under coach Stefan...

lol He did the hard part getting round the goalie and then...:doh: The Gold Cup. I forgot all about that tournament. It's only ever interesting if the US play Mexico. All those other Central American (and Caribbean) teams are boring to watch.

I agree, but they are everywhere. Even in Europe, if you are hungry at a train station at night or at a suburban gas station the attached Subway is often the nearest or possibly only open place to get a quick bite. Either them or McDonald's. Their success seems to owe as much to market...

I had zero faith in Sharapova. I didn't even look it up online to see if there was an upset. Sharapova is defeated before she gets out on to the court against Serena. Garbine Muguruza is not likely to win but at least there is an outside chance because Muguruza, like Azarenka, but unlike...

I saw a couple of minutes of the game against Croatia. I'm not a basketball fan so I changed the channel. But before I did I noticed that almost all the USA fans in the crowd were relatively young black women. I'm guessing they were the thirty something single mothers of the USA team.

After only about 15 minutes the all-white USA are hammering Japan 4-0. The Americans haven't slaughtered the Japanese like this since Nagasaki.

Ruud Gullit just said that even though Messi has not won anything with Argentina, based on everything he's seen, Messi is still probably the best player of all time. Obnoxious loudmouthed Scotsman Andy Gray - a former Sky Sports EPL sycophant until he was fired for political incorrectness - said...

Incidentally, Alexis Sanchez, who appears to be mixed race, has had a very good tournament. He has shown great skills in numerous matches. Arsenal are lucky to have him.

Poor Messi.:cry: The Pele fanboys will use this against him. They'll say he can't win for his country. And Higuain...:redface:

Higuain's chance at the end of 90 minutes wasn't as terrible as his World Cup final miss but I think he still should've scored.

Any predictions? I think we might see penalties again.

So it's official. NASCAR is gay.

Dustin Brown, the black "German" who beat Nadal, was eliminated today by Victor Troicki of Serbia in four sets. I doubt we'll ever hear much more of him.

I didn't see it but I think you're referring to the gay black guy they've brought to several other majors. I can't even remember his name but I know I've mentioned him on these boards before. He's not even an ex-athlete just some gay journo award winner who never says anything insightful...

The old kids movie Johnny Tremain (1957) was on TCM this week. It is a fictionalised version the beginning of the American War of Independence. Although a good movie I cringed at the speech made by Jame Otis on why they fight. It starts around the 51 minute mark...

Viktor Orban is building a fence: http://www.rferl.org/content/hungary-border-fence-serbia-orban/27081884.html Of course, this could all be smoke and mirrors. A fence won't do much good against LEGAL immigration or those who fly into Budapest and claim asylum.

Sorry for going OT here but I was observing the faces of the Japanese women's team the other night and was struck by how much uglier they were than other east Asians. I'd say frying pan-faced is a good description. The Japs are probably the most accomplished of the Asian races and the ones most...

Much maligned Maple Leaf Phil Kessel has been traded to the Penguins. He's a good player but the Leafs incorrectly thought they could build a team around him. The knock against him is that he is lazy both on and off the ice - he's always overweight at the start of each season and he does little...

I'll be cheering against the sobbing crybaby Watson in his next tournament. As for NASCAR nothing about it surprises me. I mean these guys jump out of a car then take a slug of Coke (Pepsi, 7up etc) in front of the reporter and camera as if that's what gave them victory. They've been the...
