I was a little upset for the girls giving up the goal just because basically a girl was allowed to stand there with nobody really trying to play her and gave her a free hit on the net.

Usually you take a penalty because you're a little bit tired or lazy and you're out of position. Ron has been really stressing that for a couple of seasons, really.

It's just if one person says anything it becomes click bait and then they start talking about the comedy climate which is hilarious, so no. You know what it is?

I only wear heels when it's 100-percent required, and even sometimes not then. I have to talk myself into a bra.

We blithely express sweeping judgments on whole peoples, calling them "hardworking" and "ingenious", or "lazy", "touchy", "sly", "proud", or "obstinate". And sometimes this ends in bloodshed." – Amin Maalouf "On Identity
