    Huh? What's that mean?
  2. Squirrel
    Yes.
  3. Squirrel
    Who?
  4. Squirrel
    I already had some lovely sushi.
  5. Squirrel
    Wow, that Mauer can sure run those bases ...

    Chi is just scared to be in the same room with the crazy person talking to hisself/herself/itself.

    I think he was looking for the Klondike Gold Rush. Or, looking for the name of the region/area within the Yukon this occurred.
  8. Squirrel
    I was confused what exactly you were asking.
  9. Squirrel
    What is known as what? The Yukon Territory is still the Yukon Territory. Do you mean the Klondike? The Klondike Gold Rush?

    I just read they did the same to Brasil. So they played a completely defensive game and didn't even go on offense? And won with PK's? And that's cowardly vs strategic?
  11. Squirrel
    What did the Swedish women do? I haven't been following.
  12. Squirrel
    Just because you think you are alone, doesn't mean you are. People are watching, but they are just afraid to approach the crazy person talking to themselves.
  13. Squirrel
    Just say no.

    Hey! That's my olympic sport!
  15. Squirrel
    Yeah ... I think the original article inferred that, or other runners had said that ... timing is everything! Edit: Ooops ... van just very aptly demonstrated that!
  16. Squirrel
    I get that on my iPad, the frequency of which comes and goes. There will be spurts where it's just impossible, then weeks where there is nothing.
  17. Squirrel
    Yeah, I wasn't suggesting it wasn't ... the article was. I've just never seen this before. And kudos, Ash ... I didn't even think of that one!
  18. Squirrel
    In other Olympic news ... okay, I didn't watch this, just read about it ... what say you all about this? Was this 'fair play?' It's legal and many athletes agree it's a strategy, but it denied a US athlete of gold. Oh no ... controversy! What think you all? http://sports.yahoo.com/news/olympians-dive-for-the-gold-sparks-internet-debate-031822836.html For me, if it's legal and other athletes say it's a strategy, whatever, good for her. I've just never seen this before. Have you?

    I like the whole story, not just the headline.
  20. Squirrel
    Not to belabor the point, and granted, it is not about one headline, and I understand the 'Phelps hype' angle, but what would have been wrong with doing it like this? http://time.com/4451155/michael-phelps-katie-ledecky-gold-rio-2016-olympics-swimming-maya-dirado-hosszu-schooling/ In any kind of 'ism,' it's easy to 'see and condemn' the obvious, but it's the subtle that tends to keep things from truly changing. And yes, I think we need to ask ourselves and question ourselves every step of the way until attitudes truly change. I know I catch myself a lot just in things that are very unintentional, but years of 'social conditioning' don't get undone in a snap.
  21. Squirrel
    If this were an isolated incident, I'd probably shrug it off in the same manner. Phelps is, yeah, I get that. But this wasn't the lone example. The article wasn't just about that one headline ... it was about this as the culmination of the many.
  22. Squirrel
    This one was also ... hilarious ... but not ... http://www.telegraph.co.uk/olympics/2016/08/15/andy-murray-gives-brilliant-response-to-john-inverdale-gaffe-abo/
  23. Squirrel
    Did you read to the bottom, and all the headlines throughout, and not just the title photo? My favorite from the Chicago Tribune ... 'Bears' wife wins medal'
  24. Squirrel
    And then there's this discussion: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/olympics/2016/08/15/olympic-sexism-twitter-is-very-angry-about-this-headline/?WTmcid=tmgoff_soc_spf_fb&WT.mc_id=sf33399225 Yeah, there's a lot of truth in that. Seriously.
  25. Squirrel
    Too bad the Portland Beavers aren't still a Twins minor league team.
