Not that anyone would notice it in North Cakalaky, where it's been hotter this past week than July and August mashed together. Jeebus Tapdancing Christ.

Sadly, our first shite International Break is upon us, so one can sleep in until noon (unless one has work to catch up on all weekend like I do, over footy but fucking still, UGH). A full Saturday before NFL Week 1 would have been superb, but alas. To the

Hi there commentists I hope you're not too hungover today. Sadly, I will miss this week's action as I'll be driving 9 hours to a lakeside cabin in the mountains. That being said it's so smoky from the forest wildfires that we won't be able to see much. Also, I'm

Yes, Sulky-assed Mourinho's United and what tattered remains of Lester played a wet fart of a Friday nighter, but the sooner we forget that happened, the better. On to a full slate of magic! Spurs are at the Barcodes to start us off (7:30, NBCSN). Now, the toothless ones flirted with
