You ain't wrong. I'd have been extra pissed off if I had bought their Premier League football package and couldn't watch the footy live.

Fans of both teams could have rioted together….  That might have been a first.

That's sad. I'll be honest, I am no BMX fan and I had to google the name when I read your post but as soon as I saw his pic I recognized him but I can't pinpoint from where or how.  Where would I know him from other than BMX?

He presented a show on mtv called road rules in the whole action sport days of the early 2000's.

I fondly remember playing Dave Mira Freestyle BMX as a kid, really sad to hear that.

I felt really shitty when the news came across my timeline. Leaves behind a wife and two kids.
He was one of a handful of guys I looked forward to seeing during the X-Games in the 90s.

Just watched the film "Concussion" and joined the dots and it seems plausible that Dave Mirra was suffering brain disease, possibly CTE, from a lifetime of hard crashes which contributed to his mental state leading to his suicide.
What an absolute legend. Heartbreaking

Nothing against the Denver Broncos, but I'd really like to see the Panthers win today.

[Bluegrass]

My fault the Panthers lost - I bet $200.  I'm a black cat.

[Chris]

Bastard.  My 95 year old grandmother is super pissed at you right now.

[Bluegrass]

I know.  I should've known.  Some people should never gamble.  I truly thought the Panthers would run over Denver.  F***.
