So what exactly is "cited for misdemeanor assault" and I assume at some point we'll see some phone/CCTV footage

No chance we know why he is medically exempt I suppose? It may be legit, but the guy who flaunted all the rules and got covid doesn't get much benefit of the doubt. Although at some point they said having it was the same as vaccination, I don't think that's the case anymore with so many breakthroug...

I understand that making money and healthcare are an American way of life, but our taxes pay for our healthcare here in the UK.

I am currently ill with pretty horrible flu like symptoms. Tested positive on 31/12/2021 and awaiting my posted PCR test result. I have had my double jab and booster and am so glad I had them, especially with the non-booster/non-vaccine rates in UK ICU beds at present (60%/90%). Lots of people have ...

I have heard it on some podcast that if the Steelers beat the Ravens and the Jags beat the Colts, then the Chargers and Raiders, who are playing each other make the playoffs with a tie on Sunday night football. Continuous kneeling by the Chargers and the Raiders would be epic... Any Germans or Aust...

This should be destroyed... Perhaps the greatest UK Indie/Britpop song ever made. Having said that, I would imagine Jarvis Cocker really likes it.

Call me Ford Frick, but if Cooper Kupp doesn’t break Megatron’s receiving yards record this week it doesn’t count. So, how much of Kupp's success is system/scheme based, as opposed to talent and where do people feel he is from a talent ranking perspective relative to current starting WRs in the NFL...

2) What is that guy doing with his lead hand? Waving? I watch a lot of boxing, but I will not watch fights between guys with 5 or 6 combined fights between them. Hopefully this Paul guy will let hubris get the better of him and will offer a 6 figure payday to some top 25 contender. THAT I would wat...

Steelers-Titans promised to be a random collection of football plays, and it has been Horrible spot and horrible read of the spot rob us of a replay overturn So the spot was horrible for the Steelers in the first instance right?

With the complete shambolic tenure of Urban Meyer, it reinforces the difficulty in the college-to-pros jump for coaches. The few who’ve been successful recently had pro experience in some level in Carroll and Jim Harbaugh, but the most successful who made the jump was Jimmy Johnson, who had no pro ...

Could someone help with this question please... When an NFL team signs a player from another team's practice squad (or once he has been released and has passed through waivers), that they are playing the following week. How likely is it that the team retaining that player has done so to learn about ...

There is something pretty special about watching sport in mad weather...

There was a thunder...

So, college football stadiums or rivalries, who do I need to see play and where before the great defensive tackle up above breaks my starting stretch? I have seen UT play in Austin, so where does that rank? Also, having seen the Steelers play in the snow (which was amazing), I feel that watching the...

Stadiums I have been to in no particular order, there may be more, but I was struggling at the end.

Six in a row and matters zero. Kid played ok and got them a win against the AFC leaders. Feels too soon but theyve got a QB and a coach and a defense and a running game. And wideout got two TDs and Hunter Henry. Lot going right in Foxboro. Looking like playoff football! The Titans are banged up bey...

Have to say that regardless of the obvious advantages, opportunities and connections that Arthur Smith has had (which are probably more than 99.9997245% of everyone on the planet), I do believe he has achieved at pretty much every NFL role he has had and it cannot be without merit that he has surviv...

So, I have secured tickets to watch Wales play England in Rugby Union at Twickenham in London next February during the 6 nations tournament. Wales very rarely win these matches when playing away from home. Prior to 2008, Wales' last win in England was in 1988, so a 30 year gap. Going to watch Wales ...
