Good Sports Day

Von Miller tested positive for the coronavirus. He is black, has asthma and weighs 250 lbs. He’s probably in his young 30s. I’m interested to see how he does. He said he’s left the house 4 times in a month and didn’t get out of the car.

Asthma and rocket inhalers prescribed …good one.

Interesting new stadium begins construction in China. It looks like a giant flower. $1.7 billion USD. I watch the WC final every four years but generally don’t care about soccer at all. This quarantine hasn’t changed that.

It looks like a corpse lily.

I saw this just a couple of days ago. Even the baby was amazed at her own talent. Sweetest baby ever. :heart_eyes:

This makes me wonder why we fuss over drugs in sport.

The NFL is backtracking.

F1 starts again on Sunday. Empty stadiums. Weird, but I’m happy it’s back. The Benzes have gone all black this year in honour of BLM. They look totally deadly. Imagine what it might feel like to look in your rear view mirror and see one of those beasts closing in. Hamilton could win #7 which would make him the GOAT in most people’s eyes. He’s still on top of his game so he might even hit 8 or 9 by the time he’s done. I know F1 is stupid but in a year nearly devoid of interesting things to see, I’ll take them where I can find them.

Khabib’s father just died. I hope MacGregor mouths off about it so I can hate him a bit more.

What’s that thing right in front of the drivers face?

It’s called the Halo. It’s meant to protect them from random debris like tires or helmets flying about.

I think Tyson was better than Ali, and I loved Ali.

I remember talking about how sugar ray Robinson was the greatest boxer of all time here. Reg said all anyone cares about is heavyweight. That might be true. Lennox Lewis probably would have destroyed sugar ray Robinson. Probably outweighed him by 70 lbs. Who cares if he’s that much bigger. Wilt Chamberlain was allowed to play basketball against people 70 lbs lighter.

Tyson would have destroyed Mayweather.

Yes, I still only care about heavyweight boxers. Interestingly, that doesn’t seem to be the case with UFC. People are right into McGregor and he’s only 70 kilos, less than I am.

EDIT re Wilt: If they had an NBA league for shorter slower players, nobody would watch it. Oh wait, they do. The WNBA. Similarly, I’m not going to watch lightweight boxers.

You are an airhead. Density is a thing of ridicule for you.

How many days before this guy gets fired? I wonder what city he was talking about. He is in Kansas city, which seems surprising.

Why should he get fired just for that? Could have been COVID tourette syndrome. Do you ever have tourette episodes when exposed to somebody who does>

Hired/fired on the same day can easily be fired/hired on the same day. Delicate balance.
