Dolfan in NYC

Not sure if this is accurate, but Marchand is apparently the first player in NHL history to win 5 winner take all games against the same franchise.

Brock Purdy just robbed the Niners. 5/265 (180 guarantee)

Hell yeah, Thomas being told to gfh by Jesus. Judas trying to commit suicide and having his entrails eaten by birds when it fails. Gibson is going to have an erection the whole time he's filming.

Look at the HOF thread.

That's kind of like how Mark McGwire led the Majors in HR's in 1997 but did not lead either league.

I've hated him for years and years before that. There's no one person more responsible for the "I'M THE STAR, NOT THE SPORTS" attitude of most people on sports TV than Christopher J. Berman. The catchphrases, the forced jokes, the attitude... all at the expense of the athletes he's supposed to be covering. He's a terrible announcer who people found charming because a relatively young person was telling them about sports and not the boring asshole who's on the local news. He is also notoriously difficult to work with. Diva attitude and behavior. Screaming at PA's and interns if everything isn't exactly how he wants. I have first hand accounts of what a miserable prick he is. But hey, he's said Rhhhhaaaiiiaaderrrrrrrhssssss since 1984, and makes the executives laugh, so he got a huge contract and pushed others out. The "leather" story for me was just confirmation of what I'd already felt and later actually knew.

AMERICANA Starring Sydney Sweeney, Paul Walter Hauser, Halsey, and Simon Rex Written & Directed by Tony Tost (Damnation)

F1 Starring Brad Pitt, Javier Bardem, & Damson Idris Directed by Joseph Kosinski (Oblivion, Tron: Legacy, Top Gun: Maverick) --- I can forgive giant monsters and unkillable villains, but a seven-time American F1 champ is just a bridge too far.

Notably, the Colts tried to do this same gimmick, but had to delete their video. It's assumed to be because the Miami game featured a Dolphin wearing a #10 jersey was being arrested by police.

I can think of at least one reason...

So, it's pretty much been confirmed by several sources that the rebrand was almost 100% a move by a "high level executive" (hi David!) who, despite being shown lots and lots of data to explain this was a very stupid decision, pulled rank and ordered the change to "Max". (And actually personally, a friend of a friend who worked at HBO confirmed to me.) At least the social medial team is "having fun" with it: It's basically their only chance to obliquely tell their boss to fuck himself. So, good for them.

Again... I'm new.... But Leafs fans throwing their jerseys on the ice... is that good?

I admit I don't know THAT much about hockey but 17/23 players scoring seems okay.

The NFL talking heads are floating out the latest horrible idea: A draft lottery.

I'm sincerely hoping the characters have aged 20+ years because if not, it's going to be "What if Boomhauer had iPad" and that's going to be terrible.
