RIPPA

I hate being right

The Rockies are off to the worst 50 game start basically ever At 8-42, it is already the worst start in the modern era (since 1901) and you have to go back to 1895 to find a worse start (7-43 by the Louisville Colonels) Not only are they on pace to shattered the modern record for most losses (which was the White Sox last year) - they are on pace to be worse than the infamous 1899 Cleveland Spiders (who lost 134 games) - the Rockies are on pace to lose 136 I say all this to say I full expect them to take 2 of 3 from the Yankees this weekend

Yup - one of your companions has a furry companion you can pet and hug over and over again And that isn't mentioning the cats scatters across the land

The Blackhawks are going with Jeff Blashill as HC because why the fuck not

David Adelman is getting the interim part of his job title removed and will become the full time Nuggets HC

The one player per country is REALLY gonna piss people off because Justin Jefferson is already the US rep (I guess technically Jefferson could decide not to play but that would be really really awkward if he didn't)

Re: Stan Verrett He confirmed the news on Twitter basically saying that his life is in LA now and with the closing of Sportscenter LA he wasn't gonna relocated

I’m so glad I gave up on the Knicks 20 years ago so the Pacers can’t hurt me anymore

Yeah in the story about tempers flaring at the meeting it was mentioned that Bills owner Terry Pegula acknowledged that his team was good at the play but he still wanted it banned (there was no follow-up explanation as why though) But yeah - apparently Jeffrey Lurie pissed everyone off by talking too long and for the language he used https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/45254735/sources-tempers-flare-eagles-defend-tush-push-heated-debate And side note - again for reasons not explained, Jason Kelce was brought in to discuss the tush push in more details for a players perspective which lead to owners being all HOLY SHIT! MAYBE WE SHOULD TALK TO PLAYERS MORE!

And the NFC East will be the focus of the in season Hard Knocks

In an outstanding troll - the Eagles immediately posted a 26 minute video to YouTube that was nothing but tush pushes

Ran a security update this morning - it obviously broke more things than it fixed I think I was able to fix things but if you had to log-in when accessing the board - that was probably the reason why

A gaming CEO said "If you are a real fan, you will find a way to pay $80 for a video game" Why of course that CEO was Randy Pitchford... did you even have to ask?

The Athletic today has a story that confirms that Jordan Hudson was the reason the UNC Hard Knocks was killed (amongst other issues) https://www.nytimes.com/2025/05/20/sports/bill-belichick-age-girlfriend-jordon-hudson.html

Kolton Wong retired over the weekend saving me from the yearly dance of considering adding him to my fantasy team when it inevitably gets ravaged by injuries

Per Adam Schefter - NFL owners are expected to approve today the ability for NFL players to play flag football in the 2028 Summer Olympics Gonna be real interesting to see the loop holes nations use to fill out their rosters with nothing but NFL players

Another trailer for Jurassic World Rebirth To repeat myself... everyone is stupid... again

Nah - most Bungie folks started bailing earlier this week when it came out that most of Marathon's art style was stolen from an independent artist Which led to the most awkward developer live stream in a long long time on Friday

Eh…. Hyde is taking the fall for Elias’ idiotic decisions

I will put this here for lack of a better place Charter Communications and Cox Communications are merging It is a merger of the 2nd and 3rd largest US Cable companies (and technically its Charter acquiring Cox) They will use the Cox Communications name for the company however will use the Spectrum as the brand name for the service folks get (basically anyone currently with Cox will switch to Spectrum and its pricing structure)

Not assuming - the Colts released a statement saying that was why and apologizing to Microsoft and Tyreek (Because as you can imagine - Microsoft wasn't thrilled with being associated with that)

Obviously this is only possible now because interleague play is common but - the Red Sox will become the first team in history to face the two reigning Cy Young winners on back to back nights Tarik Skubal tonight and Chris Sale tomorrow

Kings have hired Ken Holland as GM
