    And if they did, they were ejected; this occurred more than 20-30 years ago.

    But more often than not, Martin, et al weren't arguing balls and strikes, their tirade kabuki centered on other calls.

    I didn't watch. That's why Spurs won!

    And now we have a shot a better manager and, hopefully, a decent defense.

    You really do believe anything when it conforms to your biases.

    The Barstool Sports founder quoted a fake news report on X that was shared by infamous parody account NBA Centel, which claimed the league is 'considering banning fans from booing to create a safer emotional environment for visiting players.'​

    Maybe. Spurs got hit by injuries, particularly Vicario was out for an extended period. He is well above anybody else Spurs have, and quite good relative to other 'keepers in the league.
    Spurs won. No such thing as painful in that context. :)

    In that case, you could switch your fandom to Everton.

    Are you telling me he's not going to provide new updated info on the debunked Congresswoman Crockett story he linked? I've been waiting with bated breath for nothing?

    Denmark with a massive upset of Canada in the quarterfinals

    The American boys had previously defeated Denmark 5-0 in the preliminary round.

    Stole this from the Referee forum.....

    msilverstein47 said: ↑
    One of my first NISOA assignments was as AR, Gino D'Ippolito (the NASL legend) was the referee and he tossed someone on the Green Mountain bench (school has since closed), I ask Poppa at the half was it the Coach...no. Was it the Asst Coach, no. Gino, who did you toss? He answered, the bus driver...man, I so love this game.

    STOCKHOLM - The American boys thrash Sweden 6-2 in front of their home fans to guarantee USA a medal

    will likely get a rematch and chance for revenge against the Swiss in the gold medal game
