SportsFilter: The Tuesday Huddle:
A place to discuss the sports stories that aren't making news, share links that aren't quite front-page material, and diagram plays on your hand. Remember to count to five Mississippi before commenting in anger.
I don't know what to make of this. Apparently it's real?

Well, there's a bit of ancillary stuff in the mix there with Ahmadinejad if that tweet is for real. Online jokesters (and ill wishers) have been visually comparing him to Kaepernick for quite a while.
Unlikely that any Iranians support UM out of love for Coach Harbaugh. However, as NoMich can attest, Michigan has I think one of the largest Muslim populations in the US. Dearborn has a huge community. A lot of the young men play football at the high school level. Not sure how many go on to play in college.
So maybe that has something to do with it.
If someone subsequently says Mahmoud is also a BYU fan, then we've been had.

I watched this game
Watched that game also. That and the Joe Carter walk off home run, which I also watched, are the top 2 I've seen.
Liked this one tonite as well, but it is still LCS play.
Note the lack of douche baggery in all cases.

@sebastain: Who doesn't love sports? I guess if there is anyone then I only have to sympathise with him/her :) I love sports so badly and not only physical games but also digital games, just day before yesterday I installed Xbox in my Link Removed office so everybody can engage in gaming activities.

Butt paste was once known as "butt crack spackle". It was an essential item in the survival equipment of every 2nd lieutenant in the U S Army.
Will Sebastian and Kiara invite us to their on line wedding?
