Did anyone see the video Mark Adams posted of Usain Bolt's interview. By her accent, the lady interviewing him was not American. He's standing there with his Jamaica track jersey and flag hanging around his neck, and the US National Anthem started playing in the background. The lady kept talking. He told her to stop, National Anthem and turned toward where the Anthem was being played until it was over, then turned back to her and resumed the interview. I thought it was a pretty class act.

Bolt appears to be a good guy. He has every reason in the world to be super arrogant and standoffish, but doesn't appear to be that way.Originally posted by ShockdaWorld View PostComment

To no one's surprise, Abbey is done. A complete tear of her ACL, sprained MCL and a meniscus tear, her road back to normalcy, much less top flight distance running will be long and painful.
But the courage she showed, running over a mile with that injury after trying to help her fellow runner, will be a memory never forgotten.

US women are way more better at water polo than the US men.There are three rules that I live by: never get less than twelve hours sleep; never play cards with a guy who has the same first name as a city; and never get involved with a woman with a tattoo of a dagger on her body. Now you stick to that, and everything else is cream cheese.Comment

I used to play youth water polo. I started in a YMCA league but quickly advanced and made it onto a select team. Lots of travel, it is what my family did on weekends. I made the high school water polo team as a freshman and lettered all four years. My senior year, I suffered a devastating finger Web injury that probably kept me from playing collegiate water polo. Until that, I was P-5 water polo material.
I'm a big fan of the Chicago Sturgeon of the NWPL. I wish there was a minor league water polo team to follow in Omaha, instead, I have to drive to Des Moines to watch the Urbandale Jellyfish of the Central Water Polo League (CWPL). I know it's minor league, but it's better water polo than you would think and I get my water polo fix.
Anyone hear anymore news on the expansion team from KC? I hear they have a name, the Flounders. Good name.There are three rules that I live by: never get less than twelve hours sleep; never play cards with a guy who has the same first name as a city; and never get involved with a woman with a tattoo of a dagger on her body.

Sometimes, I wonder which is more sad. That you wrote that. Or that after the first sentence, I finished reading it.Comment
