Fans would not cheer if Jose Altuve died on the field, despite how much they hate the Astros.
[Ben Verlander] tweeted yesterday: 'I honestly think if [Jose Altuve] got hit in the head and died on the field, people would cheer.' I don't think that. I don't think so. I think it'd probably be pretty quiet. Probably be a 'ooh'. Probably cancel baseball for a couple weeks. Maybe a week. At least a day. No, Ben's way off on this one.

If you're a Timberwolves fan, I, God bless you because you are, you have to root for Karl-Anthony Towns. He must be so infuriating to root for. I'm just saying he, he is probably the hardest player to fully delude yourself into getting behind in the [NBA].
The Timberwolves lost Game 5 the moment they decided to wear their 'terrible' alternate jerseys.
The Timberwolves... you lost the game the minute you went with those jerseys. It's terrible. Jerseys terrible. Max, I saw your face... those are not back against the wall jerseys. No, those are game two jerseys. Preferably a game two of the season in October.

Karl-Anthony Towns is a self-proclaimed best big man shooter of all time. I feel like you have to have post moves, like really good post moves to be able to say that, to claim that. Otherwise, you're just a tall shooter. There's a difference between being tall and being a big man.

View profileEngland will beat the Netherlands and then lose a heartbreaking match to Argentina
I think England's gonna win this weekend. And then you'll have the realization that it might not actually be coming home after all... losing to Argentina at that stage, that would be the most heartbreaking loss they could possibly have.
Christian Pulisic is clearly not and cannot be the face of US soccer
I'm just sick of relying on him [Pulisic] to be the face of US soccer because it can't be, it's so clear that he's not.
The 4-1 loss to Belgium was the worst USMNT performance in years
That was the worst performance from the US that I've seen in years. Just completely lackluster from the start. So much blame to go around. Tim Ream, friend of the program, good guy over the hill, turned into soccer Shawn Bradley before our very eyes got dunked on twice.
