    NCAA Tournament 2nd Round Sunday Thread

    That and if they fall behind they tighten up and play noticeably worse. Maybe I'm wrong and the numbers don't bear it out but I've seen most every game they've played this year and they do not look good in those situations.

    They're not taking advantage of turn overs, and there are many opportunities to do so

    NCAA Friday Game Thread

    Which one is it? They have some very solid selections. This is a tough game for me. Ms Jums went to Duke and is a die hard fan and I went to UVM for medical school and have a soft spot for them. Hopefully will not end with me on the couch

    MW28 - Too early for a clever title

    My man, I like you very much, you seem like a good dude, but I low key feel like you did me dirty by pulling me into the Eagles Nest

    MW 2/23-26: I Will Get What I Like/Carabaoooooo

    This changed quite a bit in the second half

    Let's Lay Off That Throttle

    I think the argument isn't that signing one of those guys would block someone else but rather that free agents are generally better in the beginning of their contracts than the end. So (completely making up numbers), say you sign pitcher A to a 7 year deal now, the core is ready in 3 years, then...

    1/13 - Houston, you have a problem.

    That sequence was good and I liked it

    1/13 - Houston, you have a problem.

    I'm a little bit confused because my understanding was they were exposed against the Bucks and the league had figured them out...

    1/8 - Indy 2: Electric Boogaloo

    Honestly, it's so blatant I'm barely mad. The Celtics would have won if the refs hadn't fucked up twice. Sure you can say they shouldn't have been in the position where the refs can make the difference but I mean, it was the difference at that point

    1/8 - Indy 2: Electric Boogaloo

    Are the Pacers always this chippy? Or just having a little inferiority complex tonight?

    Shohei Ohtani is an LA Dodger: 10 years/$700 million

    Amazing. I'm ecstatic. I can complete believe they got him.

    The Bill Simmons Thread

    If I had to guess, he's taking exception to the "The Ringer finally allowed us to tape..." followed by the "the realization that audio doesn't go viral, video goes viral". Bill reads this and hears, I, JJ Redick, pushed for video and even though they weren't sure I convinced them and I was...

    Looks like we don't have to worry about drafting a QB anymore

    Mac's Future

    He's a really extreme example, even among athletes, but I was working at Boston Children's Hospital in the early 2010s and some Celtics players were there for something and I turned a corner and almost actually walked right into Shaq. Talk about someone that you know logically is a large man but...

    Tim Wakefield has passed away from brain cancer at 57 (10/1 update)

    I was at this game! I feel like the Giambi home run was a Yankee Stadium special (at the very least I remember it going to right). Then he just mowed them down. Just adding to the chorus that he is/was probably my favorite Red Sox player ever. I have a bit of a root for the underdog streak so...

    9/17 We don't need a game thread ...

    Obviously you can't control the umpires and human error and you have to still make your pitches after blown calls but still, stings to see a clear unambiguous blown call right before a walk off hit like that
