Greggulator Posted August 28, 2024 Posted August 28, 2024 NCAA Women’s Volleyball starts today! Fantastic watch when one of the games is held at a volleyball school — Nebraska, Wisconsin, Pittsburgh, Louisville, Texas, etc. But Nebraska is at another level of fandom. Bucket list for me is a trip to Lincoln to see the Huskers.
zendragon Posted September 2, 2024 Posted September 2, 2024 Hotdog contest about to start on Netflix!

Mister TV Posted September 19, 2024 Posted September 19, 2024 Pitt’s #1 ranked Women’s Volleyball team just beat #3 Penn State in a sold out Petersen Events Center!
The Natural Posted October 20, 2024 Posted October 20, 2024 This is a sad post, Sir Chris Hoy, 6 time cycling Olympic champion for Team Great Britain has announced he has terminal cancer. Hoy knew it was terminal a year ago. The guy is a legend. Tragic news.
Dolfan in NYC Posted December 7, 2024 Posted December 7, 2024 For the first time in the 55 year history of the NCAA Water Polo championships, no team from the east coast had ever made the final four. That streak is finally over. YOUR FORDHAM RAMS are 32-0 and are in the Final 4!
SirFozzie Posted December 23, 2024 Posted December 23, 2024 If it's Christmas, it must be time for Mayhem at the Ally Pally. NINE DARTS is all it takes. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sUpG8nde0bs
SirFozzie Posted January 4 Posted January 4 And Littler wins at the WDC. Broke the record for youngest champion by a mere seven years. 0_o
Dolfan in NYC Posted January 30 Posted January 30 A military helicopter had a mid air collision with an American Airlines jet near Washington, DC, where it appears everyone on board has died. Among the victims are 4 members of US Skating... 2 skaters and 2 coaches. They were returning home after competing in the US Nationals at Wichita.
odessasteps Posted February 19 Posted February 19 One of the guys at work tonight came in late because he went to see the Globe Trotters play here tonight at the famed “fake Baltimore” Harford Commuity Collge in Bel Air, past home to NXT shows. This led to me explaining how the Globies once had their own Saturday Morning cartoon AND guest starred with both Scooby Doo and the Castaways on Gilligian’s Island. Also one of my favorite cartoon openings, even if the song is not Sweet Georgia Brown. https://youtu.be/sHjn1wfGpHo?si=862WkS5ViTqnCsyp
zendragon Posted February 21 Posted February 21 I wonder if the Trotter's ever revoked Bill Cosby's membership
SirFozzie Posted March 3 Posted March 3 So, the biggest college tournament in March is happening next weekend. No, I'm not talking about that rinky dink March Madness shindig.. I'm talking something way more important.. the COLLEGIATE CURLING CHAMPIONSHIP. Who ya got? I'm rooting for Navy myself, but rumor has it they'll be disqualified for illegal practices when they swab the decks... https://collegecurlingusa.org/nationals/

Dolfan in NYC Posted May 4 Posted May 4 Incredible stat from the Kentucky Derby. Every horse that participated is a direct descendant of Secretariat.
hammerva Posted May 18 Posted May 18 (edited) I saw the finish of the Preakness about 3 times and still can't believe Journalism won that. He seemed completely stuck Edited May 18 by hammerva
Dolfan in NYC Posted May 21 Posted May 21 It's gonna be weird seeing Brock in the stands in LA in 3 years. 1
Contentious C Posted May 21 Posted May 21 (edited) I hesitate to put it in the Olympics thread because it doesn't deserve the oxygen of credibility, but evidently someone is proposing an "Enhanced Games" for 2026, where steroid use is encouraged. If you don't correctly guess where they're held on the first try, you have to go there and help everyone with their injections. No word on how many tendon and ligament surgeons will be on standby for all the inevitable injuries. Edited May 21 by Contentious C
odessasteps Posted May 22 Posted May 22 That idea has either been floated before or actually tried before and not just in that SNL sketch.
SirFozzie Posted June 4 Posted June 4 I have so many questions: Why would a betting site offer bets on a track and field race? Why would someone make a parlay based off an athlete LOSING a race? Why would someone think it's a good plan to heckle someone in an attempt to lose a race and win your parlay.. And finally, why would you give yourself the nickname of "the track and field bully".. and POST a video of you heckling the athlete, and boasting it helped you hit your parlay.. https://www.espn.com/espn/betting/story/_/id/45449723/fanduel-bans-bettor-heckling-gabby-thomas-track-event
Mister TV Posted June 13 Posted June 13 The Roller Derby World Cup is less than a month away, there's going to be 48 teams and I'm coaching one of them! This will be the third time I coach Greece in the World Cup, while we'll never compete for a medal we're looking to come out of our bouts with a winning record. The World Cup is going to be in Innsbruck Austria, which means lodging is expensive:/ Not sure if this is allowed here but if anyone wants to help out the team by buying some merch the link is below. https://linktr.ee/rollerderbygreece Edit: Opps originally put this in the media thread by mistake. 4
Dolfan in NYC Posted June 16 Posted June 16 On 6/11/2024 at 2:29 PM, Dolfan in NYC said: Joey Chestnut has been banned from the 2024 Nathan's Hot Dog Eating contest. He was banned for taking an endorsement deal with Impossible Foods. He'd won 16 of the last 17 contest, including the last 8 straight, and has the competition's record at 75. Our long national nightmare is over... 1
Dolfan in NYC Posted July 2 Posted July 2 Lia Thomas will have her swimming records and titles stripped by the University of Pennsylvania. Penn is doing this under an agreement with the current Presidential administration. That's as far as I'll go with it because I don't want a visit from the FBI
