Didn’t know Jordan Mailata had those pipes, kinda knew Joe Buck didn’t

The ending to the F1 season was impossible
It’s the kind of ending to any contest that feels scripted (and Mercedes might yet claim that it actually was scripted). It’s the thing you’d reenact in your living room when you’re a kid.

Harry Redknapp And Jordanian Journalist Have An Unproductive Interview
Harry Redknapp, the new (temporary?) manager of the Jordan national team, celebrated his first win in charge after his team beat Bangladesh yesterday, 8-0.

I Can't Stop Looking At This Absolutely Vicious Free Kick
