To all the people claiming she didn't give props to her opponent, go back and watch the whole post-match interview. It's one of the first things she said. She said Ajla was just too much for her and she just had a better match. Y'all criticize without even knowing the story.

When he's great: He's the face of the NBA. He's MJ 2.0. He's the best player under 25 since LeBron
When he's awful: Something is wrong with Ant. He's gotta be hurt. Something's wrong. He just grimaced.

Add this garbage to the file 'Reasons MLB needs an automated strike zone.'
The Twins' Griffin Jax strikes out Shohei Ohtani in a tie game in the bottom of the 7th—but the home plate umpire decides that the inning must go on.
One batter later, the Angels take the lead.
Garbage.

This Chargers team is just never prepared for key late-game situations. Such heavy coverage on the right side here, but a clear gaping hole on the left. The slot corner OR the LB could have blitzed there and Justin Herbert would have had 0 chance to escape. Adios, Brandon Staley.

You have Freddie Freeman “available” but give the bat to Chris Taylor down 3-2 with 2 on and 2 outs in the bottom of the 9th? I’m continually exasperated as to how Dave Roberts is allowed to be the manager of the best team in the universe. A competent manager has this team 85-46.

Forget Grae Kessinger, who has played 8 career MLB games, and was charged with the Astros error that gifted the Angels that ugly walkoff win.
This one's 100% on Jose Abreu, who has played 1,358 career games and didn't even effort a stretch to catch this ball and retire the side.

The common denominator is weather. 4th of July is the No. 1 outdoor holiday by far. Pools, beaches, cookouts, fireworks, lawn games all play a part. Plus, you know, the MLB continues to decline in popularity.

Is Joe Mazzulla the Celtics version of Steve Belichick minus the nepotism?
Not just the eyes/sometimes downright-confused looks. It's also the boss having irrational confidence in them despite having 0 experience—and it somehow all working out because they work with the players.

In under 20 seconds, the refs missed 3 calls at the end of the 3rd quarter.
1. Duncan Robinson foul on Bruce Brown
2. Kyle Lowry travel
3. Bam Adebayo over-the-back of Nikola Jokic
This has been one of the worst NBA Finals games in the modern era—and a lot of it is on the refs.

REFS AGAIN! Chauncey Billups was screaming for a timeout—refs didn’t grant it, then called a double-dribble on Malcolm Brogdon after he got tied up—then Chauncey got the double-T ejection. Blazers went from up 1 with the ball and no shot clock to tied without the ball. OKC wins.

Nikola Jokic is the modern-day Shaq. Hacked to shit on three straight possessions and not given one call. Then when Denver erupts in anger (understandably), Dallas is granted two free throws off technical fouls. Keeping a Game Close 101, with Professor of Refereeing Kevin Scott.

That's a good point. It just seems like no part of this team is ever prepared for situations like these. Like 'if this happens, you do this.' Good coaches overprepare to the point every player knows what to do in every hypothetical late game situation. Staley/Moore/Ansley do not.

Dave Roberts needs a neurological exam. He tried to walk to the mound after his pitching coach had just made a mound visit with the bases loaded in the 10th inning. His pitcher Alex Vesia was charged a ball because of the time violation. Then Donovan Solano mashed a walkoff hit.

Ladies and gentlemen, the worst base-running play of the MLB season. With 0 outs on a ball that hit the centerfield wall, the Nationals just ran into a double play. They should’ve at worst had runners on 2nd and 3rd with 1 out. Unacceptable for the Yankees to lose to this team.

These home plate umpires are so horrendous, man. Michael Kopech has an 0-2 count on Bo Naylor, he pumps this fastball RIGHT DOWN THE MIDDLE OF THE PLATE and the umpire calls it a ball. Next pitch, Kopech throws a wild pitch. Couple pitches later, walkoff sac fly. RoboUmps NOW!

It's not about Shohei vs. Jax. It's about the fact that this keeps happening. This literally helped decide a game. It's a strikeout, no? 3rd out. And the next batter hit the go-ahead knock.
This is a reoccurring problem in MLB, nobody is arguing that it doesn't affect everyone

I know he has some pop, but you can't convince me the Red Sox's Yu Chang is a big league hitter.
And this is not meant to take away from Matt Brash's slider, which is awesome. But this ball should not be swung at by a Major League Baseball player.
