Nowadays, with people who focus on just breaking records or mindless stats, the focus on why people came up with sports in the first place is lost. A group of kids with no pads and no formal rules getting together to play sports in a neighborhood is less likely to end up with any serious injuries than in pro sports, especially when kids know they're going to see each other again on a regular basis, in case the kid with the chip on his/her shoulder is thinking about breaking some bones and taking another kid out for an extended time, or in case another kid is thinking about hiding out for an extended time over an overextended ankle or sore thumb.
People who want people to focus on mindless stats or broken records are missing the point of why there are sports in the first place. Superheroes don't exist, so the point of sports is not to become one.

Girl- Your insults are getting weak.
Guy- At least they had strength at one time, yours have always been weak and still are.
Girl- You are such an asshole.
Guy- That's exactly what I'm talking about.

Waiting until someone has been dead and gone for a long time to say something about them you could have said while they were alive is disturbing.
He/she had to be chicken shit to say somebody was disturbing to be around years after they died. Its disturbing that there are people who wait until somebody's not around to talk about how they were to be around.

Even when throwing the egg at the dude and saying screw you, the poodle girl that didn't curse came off as poodle-like. Like a poodle trying to act tough instead of being herself, a poodle.

If you believe Bolton over Trump, or you think a Democrat is more honest and caring than a Republican, you've been huffing American glue too long.
As long as you're gonna keep huffing American glue, you might as well start huffing real glue, its gonna do the same thing to you.

People end up with a police state if they don't wake up and fight to keep their government in check. Sometimes it just keeps getting darker, there's no guarantee the light at the end of any tinnel is going to be daylight.

Extensions in restrictions aren't just affecting the business owners, since the customers end up donating to a lot of businesses to help keep them from closing.
The extensions in restrictions and trying to keep reopening from happening is fucking with a lot of people's lives, people who are not sick and have taken the virus seriously.
