    Clearly the Brexit untapped the athletic prowess that was held back by the EU

    Except for the fact that we were better in 2012. I think it's more that we channeled the money saved on health care and education into getting people to cycle and row fast.

    I was, and as much as I liked watching him play, I always rooted for Connors because Mac was a lil bitch... lol

    Edit... I think some of Mac antics were pushed on him by his long time coach and mentor, Boris whats his face though. That guy changed Tennis forever with his antics.

    She disgraced us well before that game. The deserved every boo she recieved for that Zika tweet. Not to mention SHE lost us the game.

    That's only part of it. He's EXTREMELY easy to root for. This is because of the man that he is. Did you see how he cut his interview short so the US National Anthem could play? He's all class and our 2 "best" sprinters are fucking dopers.

    I don't get it. She's taking precautions against mosquitoes because she wants to lessen the risk of future birth defects. What am I missing? Why the outrage?

    Brexit is so good that it works on both directions of the time-line.

    Did you see the tweet? Maybe it was instagram. It had nothing to do with "taking precautions against mosquitoes". It had everything to do with mocking Brazil. She was dressed up in some makeshift bee keeper garb while holding a fake can of spray that said "Zika" on it.

    Yeah. Some people honestly make you want to limit free speech a bit...

    Not a good representative of our country at all.

    Just because you have the freedom to speak, doesn't mean you should. Far too many Americans don't understand this... Especially on the viral facebook cop shootings.. etc.
    Too many wannabe know it alls that are actually completely ignorant in most cases, regarding the very topic they are spewing about.

    She should drink that bottle!!! haha. Okay that's mean, it would kill her. But it would shut her up too. ;)

    Got it. What an asshole. Although I must say, some of the responses I've seen have drastically out-assholed her...

    Yeah, and I thought she was right, the way they played was cowardly. Effective, but cowardly. Even assholes are right sometimes. Doesn't make them any less an asshole, though.

    EDIT: Just like being an asshole doesn't necessarily make someone wrong.

    Cowardly to secure a win? No it wasnt cowardly. It was smart. To belittle thier strategy that beat us is classless. Period.

    I don't have sound at work. Had no clue it didn't have sound. What the hell is the point of the video at all based on the title if there is no sound!!! lol.
    You said you heard it anyhow, so all is good.
