USA beat Russia in RWC. Canada beat Tonga with a last-gasp try. It's all kicking off for the north Americans!

My Tongan friends tell me there's no word in Tongan for "Bugger".

The Russians were all gung ho about their chances before the game:

Well add another season to the total. As of the loss last night, Season 19 in a row with a losing record is in the books. The Pirates are looking to set a streak that is as unbreakable as the hitting streak.

STAY ON THE BIKE DANNY!

Solid advice.

That announcer has an unhealthy relationship with Danny. I was less excited after the birth of my first child than he was during that run.

What the fuck is up with Teddy Bruschi the last few days? Why does he give such a gigantic shit about what Ochocinco tweets?

No clue & I wish he'd STFU. Feels like he's trying to look independent for ESPN.

That said, it's Tedy

You don't have a clue because you are supposed to be a part of it. You're not a spectator or a friggin analyst. You're a friggin Pats fan you idiot. Quit posting here and watch some you tube replays of Steve f-n Grogan, cause THAT IS NOT HOW YOU DO IT. Then maybe you can get with the program, be a part of it, THEY WANT YOU TO BE A PART OF IT!

And to our Russian friends who still dream of the cccp and take pride in winning the space race...at least we learned how to shrink condoms and protect ourselves from something other than rain.

The Dalai Lama resigns as political leader of the Tibetan people and finds himself with a bit of free time on his hands...and this is exactly the sort of thing people were worried was going to happen.
