  1. Right. Although they don't do Farley's Rusks in the U.S. Besides, these days American infants are more likely to be pre-occupied with a digital game device than a morsel of food!
  2. Good football? That's tricky to define, because it's a combination of moments of individual brilliance and periods of sustained team skill and effort. But you know it, when you see it. I also hold to the "old-fashioned" view that good football is underpinned by a spirit of sportsmanship—playing so as not to win at any cost, but with a love of the game itself, a respect for the opposition, and a refusal to cheat in order to win.
  3. Guns don't kill people; toddlers do. https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/wonk/wp/2016/05/01/toddlers-have-shot-at-least-23-people-this-year/ "Last year, a Washington Post analysis found that toddlers were finding guns and shooting people at a rate of about one a week. This year, that pace has accelerated. There have been at least 23 toddler-involved shootings since Jan. 1, compared with 18 over the same period last year." "Guns are now killing as many people as cars in the U.S."
  4. http://www.theonion.com/article/premier-league-leicester-city-title-order-will-soo-52846 " ... Just hours after the statement’s publication, the Premier League released the 2016-2017 season schedule, which reportedly indicated that Arsenal, Manchester United, Chelsea, Liverpool, and Manchester City will each play 38 home games."
  5. She was there.
  6. Wonderful news! Congrats to Leicester City.
  7. The Republican Convention is expected to be a "heated affair". Even more so, if these people get their wish. http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/us-elections/republican-convention-20000-sign-petition-demanding-right-to-carry-guns-at-event-a6954211.html
  8. Darwin Awards candidate. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/northamerica/usa/12204896/Georgia-man-loses-leg-after-firing-rifle-at-lawnmower-packed-with-explosives.html
  9. Cannot be described as "consent", I think, because she was underage; he was so much older; and he took advantage of his position of influence over her. It's abuse, not consensual.
  10. Extended highlights: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HzxX33VOrQ8
  11. "Big club" decision from ref, says AB.
  12. Free header for Van Dijk from the corner. But he heads wide.
  13. Come on, Saints!
  14. Saints Player starts 3 minutes before KO. Thanks, guys!
  15. It looks like Butland was unsighted for a moment by the Stoke defender running across, in front of Pelle, just as Pelle was shooting.
  16. I realize that; I was responding to FloridaMarlin's point about contact between the two players.
  17. It's hard to make out, but did they have a clash of heads?
  18. See post #32. In the alternative tab above the video window, click on the Russian version (third tab). The Mane incident is at the end of those highlights.
  19. Mother leaves loaded handgun in the back of her car and is shot by her four-year-old son. She is a gun-rights advocate. http://news.nationalpost.com/news/world/my-four-year-old-gets-jacked-up-to-target-shoot-florida-mom-brags-hours-before-he-shoots-her N.B. I see now that this has already been posted by Micky (one post above).
