Jrue Holiday will miss the start of the Pelicans' season as his wife Lauren has been diagnosed with a brain tumor. http://bleacherreport.com/articles/2661696-jrue-holiday-to-miss-start-of-season-to-care-for-wife-lauren-after-brain-surgery?utm_source=twitter.com&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=programming-league

So one interesting fact I found out today- That infamous 1972 gold medal game with the time shenanigans that the commentators re-played footage of? Apparently the timekeeper for that game was disgraced FIFA president Sepp Blatter. Which would explain a lot.

So the US wins both the first gold medal of the games and the last. When was the last time one country did that?

Sigh. And once again we wait for another WR from that era to be erased.

Two Canadians won 3 T&F medals each in 1932.

You know the executives at NBC will sell their souls if it meant having Phelps and Bolt in Tokyo. But even though they won't be, someone else will come along to steal all the airtime.

They don't even need to fire her outright. There are ways of removing a player from the team that are perfectly legal without running the risk of legal action from Solo. And this might even be a moot point, because there are rumors that she is going to step away at the end of the year.

Buchanan is always that reckless. I don't get why the journos slobber over her, because she's highly overrated.

Hope Danell knocks Sam out.

She never got her medal back, unfortunately.

Now I wish I were watching this instead of Brazil-Sweden. That game has been a total snoozefest. These finals sound like fun.

You owe me a new TV screen. I just spit my drink out.

They keep propping up Sam as the Golden Boy, so of course the final with him is going to be shown.

Ugh! Why does this final have to be at the same time as the Brazil-Sweden semifinal?
