    T20, List A, and ODIs, Oh My: The Cricket Thread (No, Not That Kind of Cricket)

    We just continue to see amazing runs and run-chases in this year's version of the IPL. Over at their home at Eden Gardens tonight, KKR posted up an ungodly 261/6 after Punjab Kings won the toss & decided to have a bowl 1st. Phil Salt's 75(37), & Sunil Narine's 71(32) led the way for KKR. PBKS...

    Mitchell,McConkey and Coleman-the BPA thread

    In a vacuum, I'd go Ladd McConkey. Problem is, if he's not a X, and more a Z, then we have Douglas, Bourne, & Osborn all filling those roles. Of course, you should probably go BPA in the drafts, but if we went McConkey at 34, there's still X possibilities of Javon Baker, Johnny Wilson, or...

    2024 NFL Draft 1st round gamethread: Maye the odds be ever in your favor WITH SPOILERS

    I'd love Aiyuk for #34+, or just draft a WR available, but what could we do for our gaping hole at LT? Trade up again for Patrick Paul? That's a lot of draft capital given up for 2 guys when we have several other gaps.

    Round 1 Bruins-Leafs

    My preference would be to say something more in vain of what Berube & Paul Maurice have done, because we've seen that be successful (I think it is bullshit that it has been successful, but alas.). Keefe is trying to play that card with his Marchand comment. Montgomery should change his media...

    Round 1 Bruins-Leafs

    View: https://twitter.com/NHLBruins/status/1783552805304713508 Yeah, Montgomery does not seem to be very good at this media game. 'Sometimes I don't think (Swayman is in their heads), but when Domi goes off the bench and bumps him on purpose, it makes me think that maybe he's in their head a...

    2024 NFL Draft: Patriots Discussion

    Many thanks!! What do the hyphens mean in the furthest column? If Round 2 or 3 is the sweet spot, and LT is the target, it looks like Guyton or Paul would be a good grab for Round 2; Rosengarten, Fisher, & Amegadjie for Round 3. I'd love to go WR at #34, & trade up for a LT again in the 2nd...

    2024 NFL General Season News and Notes

    Late on this post (too), & I don't have access to the full article so not sure if it mentions it, but one thing about Gaelic football is that it is strictly amateur. So the opportunity to make some coin as a professional athlete in the NFL could explain the (at least, extra) motivation to make...

    Kucherov notches his 100th assist in a season, joining Connor McDavid this season. McDavid became the 4th ever to do it, & Kucherov 5th. Only Gretzky (11x), Bobby Orr, & Mario Lemieux had ever done it prior.

    Jack Edwards to retire

    As a young kid, I was always fascinated with the Red Sox. As an out-of-towner just outside Houston, all I had was the papers & Baseball Tonight to see how the Sox were doing. Super young me thought that my fascination with the Red Sox should grow & 'it would be only fair' to include the Bruins...

    T20, List A, and ODIs, Oh My: The Cricket Thread (No, Not That Kind of Cricket)

    History made in Bengaluru. A few weeks back, Sunrisers Hyderabad broke the record for most runs with 277/3. Today, SRH broke their own record, going 287/3, with a century from Travis Head 102(41), & a half-century from Heinrich Klaasen 67(31). Their opponent, RCB, have struggled in bowling all...

    T20, List A, and ODIs, Oh My: The Cricket Thread (No, Not That Kind of Cricket)

    Some updates (mostly IPL): First, in the non-IPL category, Nepalese batsman Dipendra Singh Airee achieved an extremely rare feat: hitting 6 6s in an over. This was in the final over against Qatar. Nepal will be playing in the 2nd T20I World Cup appearance (2014) later this summer. View...

    MLB Mount Rushmore

    Great topic idea! I think mine would be: Babe Ruth Jackie Robinson Roberto Clemente Ichiro You have a diverse group up there. An IF, an OF, a P (yes, I'm cheating), & another OF. I'd love to put Willie Mays on there, & Pedro, but it is tough with only 4 spots.

    AFL: the other football. No, the OTHER Football. No…

    I know we're now firmly into the 2024 Premiership, but looks like my personal workaround to view the matches on the big screen TV has now disappeared, along with other people around the world. Tasmania got their colours & name in March 2024, and will be the Tasmania Devils. Unfortunately their...

    2024 NFL Draft: Patriots Discussion

    What is the deal with Fisher? IIRC he was a top T prospect for the 2024 Draft shortly after the 2023 Draft concluded. Is it just that Joe Alt looks like a future superstar at the position? Maybe the coaching & seeing Alt in practice can help Fisher's NFL prospective career.
