    Curse of Belle Knox: Duke loses.

    Duke is the preppiest non Ivy university in the US. Tuition is over 45,000 USD per year. Their basketball team is always one of the best in college every year. They get the pick of the best high school players each year. Rooting against Duke is like rooting against the Yankees for most...

    Curse of Belle Knox: Duke loses.

    It is a happy day for the average US sports fan like me when Duke loses in the first round of the NCAA basketball tournament. Duke student Belle Knox gets no love from her university for proving that a thin, small breasted, not unattractive woman can make money doing porn.

    What do you Brits think of your very own distillery St. George's? I have wanted to try their Chapter 9. I attempted to buy a bottle at a fantastic whisky shop in London, but my non chip credit card didn't work there.

    MLB 2014

    I am loathe to have to defend the Cubs. But, I agree with your point. I think the only the apt comparison I think would be with Man U and NYY.

    MLB 2014

    Just to keep a baseball thread going, I read something online comparing EPL teams with US pro franchises. Everton was compared similarly to the Cubs - rich in tradition, historic stadium, long suffering fans. This is unfortunate for me as a White Sox fan. I hate the Cubs.

    If best US athletes played football (soccer)

    Maybe this is a pipe dream of an American soccer fan. Suspend reality. My point is that the best athletes in the US do not play soccer. Landon Donovan is probably the best soccer player in our history. There are probably 200 American college football players right now that are better...

    Why is Australia so ace?

    It's because the country started as an English penal colony. A lot of free spirits in their bloodlines. The US on the other hand, was started by English Puritans. Enough said.
