Bit of a miserable suicide then, since he's in custody in the hospital. According to police.

Considering the obviously hightened state of emotion you're in, I'll refrain from answering. Apart from, yeah, you'd rather live in Bolivia until you actually live in Bolivia.

Thanks CNN, this is Breaking News (for maybe an hour or so). Ongoing investigations and hearings are no breaking news.

Wow, that is a sadly huge amount of national mourning days

I would assume he's smart enough to see the sarcasm

Also Bartolomeo Prignano, who was annoyed he couldn't hear tortured cardinals scream loudly enough after they conspired against him, was the best pope in Vatican history.

That's new, I only see them in those long white 'dresses' usually (on TV)

Because it can obviously happen to fall in your food. Or maybe she thought it was sugar. Or it was accidentally in a pigeon she ate.

I wonder, would the sheikhs come and wear traditional European clothes if it was held in Europe?

Someone call 911 because we've got an epic burn right here.

At least in St Moritz the Swiss are still the home athletes and not the French

Too bad the Nordic events aren't held in Switzerland though.

Thanks Sherlock, but nobody is saying they are cheating, in the most technical sense, least technical sense or whichever sense one would like to apply.

Which is why I think it should have been done on their team's group chat or whatever, but definitely not something the FA should make such a big deal of. There's a shitload of racism in sports where people are actually victims of such attacks, they should focus on that instead of a bit of an unfortunately placed joke between friends. As a Dutch saying goes: They turned a mosquito into an elephant. This guy (who's opinion seems more valuable than yours and mine as well in this situation) says it pretty well.

It was not a smart thing to do, but if the object of the joke* himself has 0 problems with it whatsoever, a "That's not very smart, don't do it again" from the FA would have been more than enough. And no, that is not excusing racism. I think Mendy's opinion on this case is a gazillion times more important than your opinion or mine. *because that's what it was, a joke amongst friends, which should probably have been done over WhatsApp instead of public Twitter

Manchester City's Bernardo Silva has been fined 64.000 pounds plus a one match suspension for a 'racist' joke about Benjamin Mendy. Mendy himself, a teammate, good friend of Silva and the only person actually involved in this, literally said he was not offended by it and sent the FA a letter to defend Silva. Without effect, sadly.

That's more a job of laws though. Great that they can sue Remington, but - much as I am in favour of much stricter gun laws - I hope Remington doesn't need to pay.

I really don't think pro boxing is in worse shape than amateur boxing, where a literal crime boss ruled the world for a while.

One of the all-time greats has passed away, aged 83. Raymond Poulidor finished on the Tour de France podium eight (!) times, without ever winning it or even wearing the leader's jersey. His biggest wins include the Vuelta a España, Milan - San Remo and the Fleche Wallone, he also finished second once and third three times at the world championships. Poulidor also was the grandfather of David and Mathieu van der Poel. https://www.lemonde.fr/disparitions/article/2019/11/13/l-ancien-champion-cycliste-raymond-poulidor-est-mort_6018967_3382.html

Since that tweets seems to be a little bit like a completely random attack on someone by Morris, some context for those who didn't click on it: Morris posted some photos of her wedding. As one might see, Morris is a white lady, her husband however is a black guy and obviously that is disgusting, according to mister Cofflin.

Thanks man, always nice when you're planning to watch something and someone drops a major spoiler bomb out of nowhere. Love it.

I'm guessing this now also means the family of everyone who was (on purpose, specifically) killed by someone running over them in a car can now sue the car manufacturer? And the family of people who have been stabbed to death can now sue whichever company made the knife that's used?

And the rest they didn't find out yet. Come on, pretty much every single team is going to do whatever they can to win in a multi-billion dollar business like this.

Now I can't wait for all of the ultra naive people who think that is even remotely unique to the Astros
