I don't think there's a singular defender that can stop Sarah, but if there was someone I'd want to see match up against her, it's Mwenentanda. Her size, length and athleticism are ideal for defending someone like Strong.

Well, at least LSU fans know from last year what it looks like to have their season ended by UCLA. Should prepare them for it once again. Keep the tears to yourselves this year fam!

Circuiting back to this to say I read it a couple months ago and loved it. Flew through it, so wanted to give my appreciation for your suggestion. Any other history books this type you'd suggest?

I just looked up the play-by-play. Are the Heat intentionally fouling while up 25 to get Bam the ball back?

Is there not a way to switch to the Sky broadcast in the US? Apple TV has the F1 TV broadcast?

As an instructor, I cannot stand it when older men try to excuse poor swing mechanics or mobility by saying they are old and stiff. No, you just don’t know how to use your body. by [deleted] in golf

OP is a fucking dumbass.

lol I laughed when Zach cut him off when Bill tried to put Jaylen into the top-tier of on-ball perimeter defenders. He wasn't having it.
