...where soccer really lives and breaths: in every single other country in the world except for the United States. I’ve never been one for columns that come out admonishing Americans for hating soccer, being so ignorant to this beautiful game, or choosing WWE Monday Night Raw over a good MLS game.Because I love WWE. I know how to do a stone-cold stunner. And the MLS is, for the most part, horrible. But at some point, we, as great lovers of sport, are going to have to get with the program. Put simply, we?...

He was a die-hard South Carolina Hillary Clinton champion - "but you win, you lose, you move on." A loyal cadre of Clinton bitter-enders, Fowler says, "introduces so much uncertainty into...
...push off into a stride and how far forward the body jumps - and their stride rate, which is how fast they can propel their legs forward. While great endurance runners, get their speed from long strides, sprinters get much of their speed from a fast stride rate - and from raw power. They hit the ground harder, relative to their body weight, than marathoners...
