    Paradise Found? The Milton thread.

    It is contextual, isn’t it? Last week Zappe’s ability to lose in a more interesting way than Mac was exactly what the Pats needed. I looked on with envy as Zappe expertly guided the Browns to a better draft position, and Milton, well, played a very un-Zappe game. I think it was Chuck Fairbanks...

    24-25 CFB Playoff Quarterfinals

    We’re at 30 minutes out and I’d say 70% full. Lots of space in the upper deck.

    I am posting live from the Super Dome, where the security has been stepped up and appears to be 60-40 UGA fans.

    12/29 - New Winning Streak Continues (Pacers)

    Hauser is a passable defender when he’s at 100%. Gimpy Hauser can’t stop a drive if the driver is strong with a good handle.

    Christmas Game Thread vs Sixers 12/25/24

    Fucking Embiid staggering around the paint, takes minimal, routine contact under the basket, falls down, gets call. Refs should not reward “I’m big awkward with weak ankles.” I think I (5’11’ 180lbs) could push Embiid down if I had a running start. He falls over at the slightest contact.

    Christmas Game Thread vs Sixers 12/25/24

    I got an excellent bottle of bourbon for Christmas, and the Celtics make me happy. That is all.

    20 years since the Jay Payton signing

    Fascinating that SoSH had so much faith in Adam Stern.

    Do you think the Red Sox interest in Juan Soto is genuine?

    This is where I am. The Sox were “legitimately trying” to resign Mookie for $300 million, when it was clear that was a low ball offer. The Sox were “legitimately interested” in Yamamoto, if Yamamoto was willing to take less than his market value for…reasons. I’m cynical because the Red Sox have...

    CFB 2024 Week 13: A thread that evidently has the same budgetary constraints for NIL and coach removal as plagues Craig Breslow

    War Damn Eagle. Am I crazy to think a surging Auburn team meeting a Crimson Tide in disarray will make for a terrific Iron Bowl?

    2024-2025 Sixers: Facialing Reality

    For Ewing, they had their legit #2 guy — Bernard King. His injury was the Knicks Len Bias event. Worse, in some ways, since King did come back, but it took two years and New York was too impatient and released him. If they had allowed him to recover they would have had a scorer to take some...

    2024-2025 Sixers: Facialing Reality

    Embiid’s career reminds me of Patrick Ewing’s career. Came in hyped. Big media market with passionate fans. Was consensus “best big in the east” year after year. But he never got a ring. His career started in the Celtic 80s dynasty, then he got blocked by those excellent Pistons teams, then...

    Game 3, October 26 at Detroit

    Tatum driving into the paint shouldn’t be passing to Tillman for a long jumper. Tillman should get his points from cleaning up misses and running on the break.
